PROBLEM TO BE SOLVED: To provide a sebum collecting device by which judging data of a skin moisture content together with sebum collection by pressing a sample to the skin of an examinee. SOLUTION: Since minute recess and projection are formed by sand-blasting the surface of a transparent acrylic resin, a collecting pellet 10 increases transparency when sebum is stuck to it. Consequently, a sebum secretional capacity is calculated from a difference between transmissivity before and after sticking of sebum. On the other hand, a pair of comb-type electrodes is formed on the skin contact surface of a circuit part 12 fitted into the pellet 10 by forming a square opening. When pressing the pellet 10 to the skin for collecting the sebum, the resonance frequency of the circuit part 12 is lowered by the dielectric constant of skin moisture and a skin moisture content is calculated by measuring the resonance frequency. Since the pellet 10 is changed for every examinee 40 and for every measuring, time, a sanitary condition can be obtained and the labor and time for cleaning the electrodes can be eliminated. |
