A previous study comparing Corneometer<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup> instruments (European group for Efficacy Measurement of Cosmetics and Other products \u2013 EEMCO) used for measurement of electrical capacitance of skin indicated a major difference among Corneometer<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup> instruments. The aim of this study was to assess threee inter\u2010instrumental similar Corneometer<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup> instruments (two pieces of CM820 and one CM810) in normal skin. We named them CM\u2010A(CM820), CM\u2010B(CM820), and CM\u2010C(CM810).<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Methods: <\/jats:bold> The hydration state of SC measured as electrical capacitance of six body sites were measured in 53 subjects with three Corneometer<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup> instruments.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Result: <\/jats:bold> We found that the Corneometer<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup> instruments displayed close capacitance levels. When one Corneometer<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup> was plotted against another the regression line indicated a good correlation among instruments albeit a major and random disagreement could appear in individual sites as an exception.<\/jats:p><jats:p><jats:bold>Conclusion: <\/jats:bold> Three Corneometer<jats:sup>\u00ae<\/jats:sup> instruments evaluated in this study gave close measurements and correlated well. Nevertheless, pretest validation of instruments should be undertaken in multicenter studies where capacitance data are compared or pooled, and concordance among instruments should be documented prior to study.<\/jats:p>","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0846.2005.00086.x","type":"journal-article","created":{"date-parts":[[2005,3,31]],"date-time":"2005-03-31T09:15:55Z","timestamp":1112260555000},"page":"107-109","source":"Crossref","is-referenced-by-count":36,"title":["Inter\u2010instrumental variation of skin capacitance measured with the Corneometer<sup>\u00ae<\/sup>"],"prefix":"10.1111","volume":"11","author":[{"given":"Ken\u2010ichiro","family":"O'goshi","sequence":"first","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]},{"given":"J\u00f8rgen","family":"Serup","sequence":"additional","affiliation":[],"role":[{"role":"author","vocabulary":"crossref"}]}],"member":"311","published-online":{"date-parts":[[2005,3,31]]},"reference":[{"key":"e_1_2_5_2_2","doi-asserted-by":"crossref","first-page":"335","DOI":"10.2340\/0001555573335339","article-title":"Electrical measurement of the water content of the stratum corneum in vivo and in vitro under various conditions: comparison between skin surface hygrometer and corneometer in evaluation of the skin surface hydration state","volume":"73","author":"Hashimoto\u2010Kumasaka K","year":"1993","journal-title":"Acta Derm Venereol"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_3_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/1523-1747.ep12524316"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_4_2","first-page":"284","article-title":"Assessment of skin moisture","volume":"68","author":"Blichmann SJ.","year":"1988","journal-title":"Acta Derm Venereol"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_5_2","volume-title":"Bioengeeniring of the skin: methods and instrumentation","author":"Berardesca E","year":"1995"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_6_2","first-page":"1","article-title":"A multicenter comparison of different test methods for the assessment of the efficacy of skin care products with 368 human volunteers","volume":"45","author":"Bimczok R","year":"1994","journal-title":"J Soc Cosmet Chem"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_7_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1111\/j.1600-0846.1998.tb00112.x"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_8_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000017932"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_9_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1007\/BF00431230"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_10_2","first-page":"64","article-title":"Biophysical measurements of human forearm skin in vivo","volume":"6","author":"Chilcott RP","year":"2000","journal-title":"effects of site, gender, chirality and time"},{"key":"e_1_2_5_11_2","doi-asserted-by":"publisher","DOI":"10.1159\/000066233"}],"container-title":["Skin Research and Technology"],"original-title":[],"language":"en","link":[{"URL":"https:\/\/api.wiley.com\/onlinelibrary\/tdm\/v1\/articles\/10.1111%2Fj.1600-0846.2005.00086.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"text-mining"},{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/pdf\/10.1111\/j.1600-0846.2005.00086.x","content-type":"unspecified","content-version":"vor","intended-application":"similarity-checking"}],"deposited":{"date-parts":[[2023,10,12]],"date-time":"2023-10-12T00:39:08Z","timestamp":1697071148000},"score":1,"resource":{"primary":{"URL":"https:\/\/onlinelibrary.wiley.com\/doi\/10.1111\/j.1600-0846.2005.00086.x"}},"subtitle":[],"short-title":[],"issued":{"date-parts":[[2005,3,31]]},"references-count":10,"journal-issue":{"issue":"2","published-print":{"date-parts":[[2005,5]]}},"alternative-id":["10.1111\/j.1600-0846.2005.00086.x"],"URL":"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1111\/j.1600-0846.2005.00086.x","archive":["Portico"],"relation":{},"ISSN":["0909-752X","1600-0846"],"issn-type":[{"value":"0909-752X","type":"print"},{"value":"1600-0846","type":"electronic"}],"subject":[],"published":{"date-parts":[[2005,3,31]]}}}
