Lipid organization in pig stratum corneum.
Open accessAbstract
The lipid and keratin structure of pig stratum corneum has been elucidated by small- and wide-angle X-ray diffraction. The measurements were carried out as a function of hydration and temperature. In addition, the stratum corneum was measured after recrystallization of the lipids at various temperatures. The results led us to conclude that the intercellular lipids in the stratum corneum are organized in at least two different lamellar structures with repeat distances of 6 and 13.2 nm. There is an indication for the presence of a third phase with a periodicity of 9 nm. The wide-angle pattern revealed a hexagonal (0.414 nm spacing) and liquid lateral packing (approximately 0.46 nm spacing). The 0.414 nm reflection started to decrease in intensity between 60 and 66 degrees C and disappeared between 72 and 95 degrees C. Furthermore, crystalline cholesterol has been indicated by both, wide- and small-angle X-ray diffraction, while the reflections of alpha-keratin were observed in the wide-angle X-ray diffraction pattern.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
