Analysis of information sources in references of the Wikipedia article "Barrier cream" in English language version.
BC are also called 'skin protective creams' (SPCs) or 'protective creams' as well as 'protective ointments', 'invisible glove', 'barrier', 'protective', or 'prework' creams and gels (lotions), 'antisolvent' gels, and so on. Kresken and Klotz (2003) believe that the term 'invisible glove' is incorrect and it might mislead the user. Frosch et al. (1993a) consider SPC a more appropriate terminology since most creams do not provide a real barrier, at least not comparable to stratum corneum. We utilize BC here because this term is in general usage in industry.
