research Enzymological studies on processes in cellular differentiation and transformation: the use of the human hair follicle as an easily available human biopsy tissue
Hair follicles are useful for studying human cell changes.
research Microscopical characterization of known postmortem root bands using light and scanning electron microscopy
The research found that postmortem root bands in hair are likely caused by the breakdown of a specific part of the hair's inner structure after death.
research Human Hair Keratins.
research Performance scanning electron microscopic investigations and elemental analysis of hair of the different animal species for forensic identification
Scanning electron microscopy and elemental analysis can help identify animal species by their hair patterns and elements.
research An ultrastructural study on corkscrew hairs and cigarette‐ash‐shaped hairs observed by dermoscopy of tinea capitis
Corkscrew and cigarette-ash-shaped hairs in tinea capitis are caused by internal hair degradation and external resistance.
