Targeted release of active ingredients (efficacy and duration) based on multilamellar encapsulation.
The scelerique© technology is based on a biomimetic principle modeled on nature: In nature, active ingredients are not simply present and released immediately without restriction. In nature, active ingredients are encapsulated, allowing them to be released in a controlled manner depending on environmental conditions.
This is exactly how the scelerique© technology works: Here, too, active ingredients are encapsulated, meaning they are enclosed in lamellae. A lamella is a series of molecules in the skin's cell membrane complex that organize themselves in sequence, building up into multiple layers. This structure is not random, but occurs in a predetermined sequence determined by nature.
Active substances can be introduced into these molecular sequences and between these lamellae and then released from there in a targeted manner, for example when the environment contains:
-
– the pH value changes
DYNADION products achieve the pH-balance© effect through the use of an innovative, acid-base-active biopolymer. This forms a pH buffer zone on the skin.
-
– the temperature changes
The thermobran© technology allows the temperature of the skin to be specifically increased or reduced – and this can be physically measured over a period of up to 3 – 5 hours and in steps of up to 5°C.
-
– the humidity changes
The scelerique© technology enables a sensitive gradation of the intensity of the effects and their release depending on specific environmental influences.
Effect on the skin
Locally or extensively, but always targeted
The DYNADION mechanisms of action act through the largest human organ, the skin. This also allows DYNADION athletic products to be applied locally, i.e., precisely tailored to the specific needs.
The skin is also the only way to gain direct physical access to one of the most important levers of athlete performance: the muscles.
At the same time, the skin is the organ that protects the athlete from environmental influences such as cold and heat – factors that can cause significant drops in performance.
The special effects
The foundation of the special modes of action of the scelerique© technology is a multilamellar structure, the basic logic of which can be transferred to various active ingredient systems.
Depending on how a multilamella is biochemically configured and which active ingredients are embedded in the multilamella, different effects can be achieved in the skin:
- real cooling effects (factors: shear forces, moisture, heat),
- real, warming effects (factors: shear forces, cold, humidity),
- real, blood circulation-promoting effects (factors: shear forces, cold, humidity).
The specific modes of action related to these effects:
-
Cooling effects
The resulting cold effects support athletes particularly at the point of their origin (local cooling of the skin and surrounding tissue), via the resulting protective layer (inhibited heat absorption from outside) and via the resulting thermal bridge (transport of heat from the body).
-
Warming effects
The resulting heat effects support athletes particularly at the point of their creation (local warming of the skin and surrounding tissue), via the resulting insulating layer (inhibited heat loss to the outside) and via the resulting thermal bridge (transport of heat into the body).
-
Circulation-promoting effects
When circulation-promoting active ingredients are released from the shear- and temperature-sensitive multilamellar depot in the skin, they migrate into the body and not outwards thanks to the insulating layer described in warming athletics.
