Technical Field

[0001] The utility model relates to the technical field of medical devices, in particular to an in vitro detection device for external skin medications. Background Art

[0002] Topical medications are the cornerstone and foundation of treatment options for many skin diseases. Currently, the development of new topical medications is booming in clinical practice, making it a hot topic in the field of skin research. Cellular and animal experiments are essential preclinical validation processes for new drug development and are essential for advancing the development of human medicine and life sciences. However, skin tissue has a unique anatomical structure, with the stratum corneum as the outermost layer of the epidermis, which affects the transdermal penetration of most drugs. Therefore, the effectiveness of cell experiments is not directly equivalent to in vivo effectiveness. Although animal models can further confirm the efficacy and safety of new topical medications, human and animal tissues have significant differences in physiological functions and anatomical structures. During the development of new drugs, it is not uncommon for animal experiments to be effective while human trials are ineffective. Therefore, a convenient and effective in vitro model based on human skin lesions to evaluate the efficacy of topical medications is of great significance for the development of skin topical medications, especially for inflammatory skin diseases such as psoriasis and atopic dermatitis.

[0003] When using the in vitro drug detection device in the prior art, the drug detection device is not very convenient for directly detecting human skin tissue, which causes deviations in the drug use effect when performing daily in vitro drug detection and does not meet people's usage needs. Therefore, an in vitro detection device for external skin drugs is needed. Utility Model Content
