Labskin exhibits the immunohistochemistry markers quite similar to human skin. It is compatible with traditional cryo-sectioning preparation and paraffin wax embedding methods, as well as an extensive range of immunohistochemistry and staining protocols.

Labskin Microbial Response Analysis
It is possible to use Labskin within the same experimental framework to assess various endpoints at the same time. The endpoints include cytokine responses (that is, PGE2, IL-1α, IL-6, IL-8, IL-10, TNF α, etc.), photo-reactivity, wound repair, and histological changes. Endpoints such as pathogenic microorganisms and skin commensal can also be assessed.
