Abstract
Technical details of an improved method for measuring tensile behaviour of normal and treated rat skin are described. The apparatus has been developed specifically for skin specimens so that the extending force and the adequate strain rate until rupture are designed especially for this purpose. Skin is to be mounted in the jaws of the instrument in horizontal position. Preliminary biological data have been worked out.
