Artificial Perspiration Human perspiration comes in contact with a number of

consumer products. Contact can cause a variety of undesireable effects. Dyes can bleed or discolor, components can corrode and/or malfunction, residues can be unsightly. Manufacturers in the past have employed any of various simple, adhoc recipes to approximate human sweat for product testing. These sweat mimics usually contain only four or five solutes and must be prepared fresh daily due to rapid fungal growth. The artificial Eccrine Sweat we offer is a stabilized, ready to use solution. It consists of the 19 amino acids, the seven most abundant minerals and the four most abundant metabolites. All concentrations closely match experimentally determined values for adult human Eccrine Sweat.
