Comparison of two in vitro dendritic cell maturation models for screening contact sensitizers using a panel of methacrylates.

abstract：:We applied atomic force microscopy (AFM) to visualize ultrastructural changes of the keratinocyte morphology after narrow-band ultraviolet B (NB-UVB) irradiation. Immortalized human keratinocytes were cultured under standard conditions, irradiated with NB-UVB light at doses ranging from 50 to 800 mJ/cm2 and imaged by ...
