This project develops a new microfluidic device for testing antiperspirants without human subjects. It mimics natural sweating processes, significantly reducing testing time and costs while improving reliability. The goal is to facilitate the creation of safer, aluminium-free antiperspirants.
Antiperspirants (APs) are among the most widely used cosmetic products that reduce sweat in the axillae (€20bn market in 2015).
They are used by almost 90 % of the adults in developed countries.
The Food and Drug Administration regulates APs, and gravimetry is the gold standard technique used to test them.
More precisely, a direct application of the test sample on the armpit is performed on 40 volunteers and sweating is measured under predefined conditions in a hot room.
This technique, which ha…
