Cutaneous irritancy of water.

Abstract:

:Abstract Water is an ubiquitous irritant that exerts its irritancy through different mechanisms. Water passage and optimal water content is a highly controlled process of human skin and changes in the water gradient may lead to skin diseases. The pH, osmolarity, and temperature of water can all be attributes of water irritancy. In addition, the irritancy of water is also determined by individual susceptibility.
