Lipids were extracted from human stratum corneum and the remaining corneocytes were reaggregated with different lyotropic liquid crystals. Water transport through the reaggregated stratum corneum was determined using a diffusion chamber according to Smith and Blank. The permeability constant for the reaggregated stratum corneum with natural lipids was 25-40% lower than that with the surfactant liquid crystals, but there was no significant difference between different liquid crystals.
