 Berlinian Hypothesis Hermetic Diagnostics, Inc.
Further research needs to be done regarding other drug testing in apocrine sweat but it is likely that there are many other drugs that could be monitored non-invasively in this manner.
Therefore the greater information and specificity of these parent compounds can be utilized by modern diagnostic techniques which go beyond the ability of either olfaction (sense of smell) or the relatively new electronic noses which are subject to the same limitations of physics as olfaction.
This study found that there were false positives in axillary sweat when the individual was not intoxicated and there was no longer delta nine thc in the bloodstream.

 USCAP 2003 Annual Meeting
Apocrine adenosis has been suggested by some to represent a neoplastic process.
Simple apocrine metaplasia is not associated with any increased risk of subsequent carcinoma development.
Follow-up studies are needed to determine the clinical utility of this approach to classification.

 Oncology Forum - Case Report
The prognosis of metastatic apocrine carcinoma is grave but our experience of using cisplatin, adriamycin, and cyclophosphamide in treating metastatic disease is encouraging.
The reason that we used cisplatin, adriamycin, and cyclophosphamide in treating metastatic apocrine carcinoma is based on our experience of treatment of adenocarcinoma of unknown primary.
The biological behaviour of apocrine carcinoma is diverse but in general, moderately- and poorly-differentiated tumours behave more aggressively.

There are two kinds eccrine, and apocrine and they are an extraordinary study in contrast, from almost any way you look at it.
Most doctors will try one or a combination of approaches in treating apocrine bromhidrosis before referring the patient to an electrologist.
There is, though, one very important distinction that must be made between the true bromhidrosis patient and the bromhidrosiphobic individual: the latter being people who have a morbid dread of bodily odors and unreal images about what they smell, or in this case, what they think they smell.

 Final Diagnosis -- Case 347
For the time being, therapy for apocrine carcinoma is identical to that for infiltrating ductal carcinoma (6).
Many researchers do not recognize apocrine carcinoma as a distinct clinicopathologic entity as most studies have found no significant differences in natural history and prognosis relative to regular infiltrating ductal carcinoma.

 Sebaceous Glands and the AAT
Morgan and other AATers have long maintained that the patterns of human skin glands, apocrine, eccrine, and sebaceous, can only be explained by an aquatic past.

 apocrine
Controlled by sympathetic nerves of the fight-or-flight response, our apocrine glands are highly responsive to emotional stimuli.
A natural, animal-like aroma which can be emotionally stimulating and sexually attractive.
Odorless until digested by bacteria, millions of possible smell combinations suggest that apocrine odor may be used to announce our personal identity, presence, and sexual moods.

 Apocrine carcinoma of the skin
Apocrine carcinomas of the skin are rare and incompletely studied neoplasms.
An immunohistochemical and ultrastructural study is reported of specimens from six patients with apocrine skin carcinoma in various body sites.
Apocrine differentiation in skin tumors does not indicate an exclusive origin from the apocrine sweat glands; these neoplasms usually have an indolent clinical course.

 Body Odor Support
The skin's appearance is essentially normal except when associated with other unrelated conditions (eg, intertrigo, erythrasma).
Therefore, the physical examination of patients with axillary (apocrine) bromhidrosis is unremarkable.
Bromhidrosis is believed to be more common in patients of dark-skinned ethnicity.

 apocrine hidrocystoma
The epithelium in some examples is so flattened that the distinction between apocrine morphology and eccrine morphology is difficult or impossible.
Although many are flesh colored, occasional examples are very dark and may be confused with a melanocytic lesion clinically.
Lipofuchsin granules are stated to occur in the apices of the epithelial cells but may be located anywhere in the cytoplasm of the apocrine cells.

Generalized sweating cools the body when intense physical activity is expected.
An acclimatized person can produce up to several liters of sweat per hour and ten liters per day.[48,57] For nonhuman species, apocrine sweat provides pheromone signaling that is important in mating, parenting, and other interactions; it is unclear what the role is for apocrine sweat in humans.[48]
There are also mixed sweat glands called apoeccrine glands, found in human axillary and perianal areas.

Limiting perspiration in localized areas associated with apocrine sweat is desirable from a social perspective.
Antioxidant vitamins such as vitamin E may be beneficial to skin and help to limit the odor of apocrine sweat, but will do nothing to limit the production of sweat.
Apocrine sweat is associated with odor because of the action of bacteria on components of the sweat.

TAA may represent the intermediate phase of the spectrum between SCAP and PEA.
TAA may have a connection to the overlying epidermis by dilated ducts as in SCAP.[4] Both TAA and PEA exhibit mainly tubular structures, which may show eccrine or apocrine differentiation.[1, 7, 10, 11] Regarding the previous findings and suggestions, it may be proposed that these tumors might develop from pleuropotential appendageal cells.

 what's that smell?
The fact that body hair and apocrine glands appear simultaneously at puberty is significant and suggests that body odor and its dispersal may be linked to sexual development.
These supposedly non-functional structures, coupled with the olfactory system, would be called part of a pheromonal system in any other mammal.
These odors are largely produced by the skin's apocrine sebaceous glands, which develop during puberty and are usually associated with sweat glands and tufts of hair.

That doesn't mean they sweat less--eccrine glands, the other main type of sweat gland, are a thousand times more numerous on most bodies, and Asians have plenty of them.

 Bienvenue sur H.I.D.E. FRANCE
The freshly secreted apocrine sweat is actually rather odorless, but it becomes malodorous when its substances are decomposed by the action of bacteria on the skin's surface.
Within a few weeks, however, most of these rudiments disappear, and the human body eventually has well-developed apocrine glands only in the armpits, the navel, the ano-genital areas, the nipples and the EARS.
Before the deodorant and perfume industries usurped their function of creating a person's body odor, the apocrine glands no doubt played an important role in human society.

The purpose of this study was to isolate the glands and devise simple culture procedures to facilitate investigations of secretory cell function.
The observations suggest that some differentiated functions of gland cells were retained in vitro and that the procedures described provide a system for the study of apocrine secretions in isolation from those of other skin glands.
The glands synthesize a number of hormones and growth factor, but analysis of the functions of these molecules may be hampered by the mixing of apocrine and sebaceous secretions in the pilary canal.

The aroma of (reasonably fresh - couple of days) human sweat is a wonderful thing to those who have not been conditioned to feel that all body odors are bad.

The sweat glands and the hair have been created by evolution, on purpose, for very good reasons.
