Skin protection measures for protecting human skin against water and aqueous solutions of detergents, acids and bases

Journal Title: Podstawy i Metody Oceny Środowiska Pracy - Year 2014, Vol 30, Issue 1

Abstract

This article discusses the influence of water, water solutions of detergents on human skin and barrier preparations which protect against these irritating effects. Skin protection measures, hydrophobic barrier creams, are very helpful in preventing occupational der-matoses. This paper presents testing the effec-tiveness of six skin protecting products with technical methods developed at the Central Institute for Labour Protection – National Research Institute. Barrier properties of these products differ significantly so the developed methods help to select the best product. The developed methods of determining hydrophobic skin protection measures have been recorded as analytical procedures, which are available in the Appendix.
