Non-invasive skin sampling of tryptophan/kynurenine ratio in vitro towards a skin cancer biomarker
Abstract The tryptophan to kynurenine ratio (Trp/Kyn) has been proposed as a cancer biomarker. Non-invasive topical sampling of Trp/Kyn can therefore serve as a promising concept for skin cancer diagnostics. By performing in vitro pig skin permeability studies, we conclude that non-invasive topical...
