Brief Summary
|
The study employs a solar simulator to assess the protective efficacy of sunscreen on human skin. Participants undergo screening to determine eligibility, including ITA° value measurement. A provisional MEDu is established to set UV exposure ranges for untreated and treated sites. During the sunscreen test, one site is exposed to UV without protection, while others receive test and reference products. Erythema is evaluated 20±4 hours post-exposure. Water resistance is assessed through controlled immersion cycles, followed by air drying, before additional UV exposure to measure SPFiwr, adhering to ISO guidelines. |
