Abstract
The experimental study was performed for ex vivo skin of white Wistar rats. Recording of diffuse reflectance and total transmission spectra of samples was carried out using a UV-3600 spectrophotometer with an integrating sphere (Shimadzu, Japan) in the spectral range of 350-2500 nm with a step width of 2 nm before and after immersion in 70%-glycerol solution with 10% of DMSO. Reduced scattering coefficient of samples was estimated. Transmission coefficient of the skin increased significantly after exposure of the tissue to the solution. Reduction in skin reflectance was observed. Significant decrease in the transport scattering coefficient was obtained.
