Specific dermatological benefits associated with quantities of lotion transferred to the skin

Abstract

We can conclude that pretreatment with 110 μg/cm lotion acts as a barrier to high pH fluids such as urine. Using the measurement of lotion transfer from the AI products, together with the results of studies conducted to determine the concentration of lotion required to provide specific skin benefits, we conclude that the five-stripe lotion configuration AI test products transferred enough lotion (ie, ≥80 μg/cm ) to provide skin protection with regard to: (1) irritant effects and (2) excess moisture. The single-block AI test products also transferred enough lotion to provide these skin benefits (ie, ≥165 μg/cm ), and the additional benefits of skin protection against: (3) dryness, and (4) changes in pH.
