research Combined Systemic and Cutaneous Ovalbumin–Aluminum Sensitization Triggers Thermal Hyperalgesia, Spinal Gliosis, and Nociceptive Nerve Fibers Sprouting in Mice
Ovalbumin–aluminum sensitization causes increased pain sensitivity and nerve changes in mice.
research Phase-specific differential regulation of mechanical allodynia in a murine model of neuropathic pain by progesterone
Progesterone initially worsens but later reduces neuropathic pain in mice, through different mechanisms.
research Stability Studies on L-Ascorbic Acid dl-α-Tocopherol Phosphoric Acid Diester Potassium Salt (EPC-K)

research Isolation and Structural Characterization of Finasteride Degradation Products by Preparative HPLC, HRMS, and NMR
Finasteride breaks down into new compounds under acidic conditions.
research The Effects of Temperature, pH and Moisture Exposure on Human Hair
High temperatures, acidic conditions, and too much coconut oil damage hair, while a pH of 5 to 7 keeps it healthy.
research Effect of equilibrium pH on the structure and properties of bleach‐damaged human hair fibers
Hair's structure and properties change with pH; acidic pH maintains strength and less swelling, while alkaline pH increases water content and swelling.
research pH-Responsive Hydrogel with Dual-crosslinked Network of Polyvinyl Alcohol/Boric Acid for Controlled Release of Salvianolic Acid B: Novel Pro-Regenerative Mechanisms in Scar Inhibition and Wound Healing
The hydrogel helps reduce scarring and improve wound healing by releasing salvianolic acid B in acidic conditions.
research Keratinization and its Disorders
