Mexameter MX 18 - Assessing Melanin Content and Erythema Level
Mexameter® MX 18
Assessing Melanin Content and Erythema Level
The Mexameter® MX 18 is a very easy, quick and economical tool to measure the two components, mainly responsible for the colour of the skin: melanin and haemoglobin (erythema) by reflectance.
Advantages of the Mexameter®
- Very quick and easy measurement (1 second for the results: melanin index and erythema index).
- Continuous measurements over a longer period can optionally be performed.
- The highly sensitive measurement gives values on a broad scale (0-999) for melanin and erythema so that even smallest changes in colour become traceable.
- The probe is small and lightweight for easy handling and measurement on all body sites.
- A spring in the probe head ensures constant pressure on the skin enabling exact, reproducible measurements.
- The accuracy of the Mexameter® probe can be checked easily anytime.
- The probe head can easily be cleaned after each measurement.
- Worldwide established and used in many scientific studies.
The Mexameter® MX 18 is available as a stand-alone device or connectable to the MPA systems or as a wireless probe (please see details in Basic Probe Systems).
