Ten

Skin™

The most biologically relevant ex vivo human skin model.

Dedicated to advancing skin research

We work with clients that are exploring medical aesthetics, cosmetics, drug development, and medical device testing. Using our patented ex vivo human skin model and specialist research services, our expertise augments client R&D, allowing them to make significant progress in investigating complex skin responses with lower development costs. 

TenSkinTM

Working with Ten Bio provides human relevant testing and predictive clinical data without the use of animals. Our TenSkinTM model uses full-thickness human skin complete with dermal and epidermal layers with appendages and minor skin cell populations, cultured at an optimum mechanical tension, providing viability extending to beyond 2 weeks. 

Enhance your R&D with TenSkinTM– available to order as a ready-to-use assay or as part of full spectrum specialized research services.

Mechanical Tension

Mechanical tension plays a vital role in organ and tissue morphology and function. Ten Bioʼs unique TenSkinTM culture system allows real human skin to be cultured at physiological tension, which assures a normal and realistic tissue response.
This enables evaluation of a broad range of responses over longer durations and more accurately than in other systems, allowing research teams to make more informed decisions at every stage of R&D. Better decisions drive better results, rapid progress, and lower costs.

Optimized ex vivo human skin models for skin biology testing.

TenSkinTM is suitable for a wide range of applications including wound healing, compound efficacy assessment, and response to UV radiation.
