Abstract
A model for the structure of the stratum corneum lipids was analyzed using small angle x-ray diffractometry and optical microscopy The small angle X-ray diffractograms showed the lipids to be partitioned in the hydrated acid/soap host layered structure between the methyl group layers. The exception is cholesterol which was entirely located in the acid/soap chains and which, in addition, attracted other compounds from the location between the methyl group layers.This publication has 17 references indexed in Scilit:
