What happens to sweat between its production and its arrival at the skin surface?

What is it about?

When sweat is produced in the gland and starts to travel to the skin surface, part of it is absorbed in the superficial skin layers before it actually reaches the surface. Using three different measurement types, 1: galvanic skin conduction; 2 skin hydration and 3 skin surface sweat rate through absorbant patches, this transport is followed and analysed.
