research Fractography of human hair
Moisture content significantly affects how human hair breaks.
research Evidence for various calcium sites in human hair shaft revealed by sub-micrometer X-ray fluorescence
The research found two types of calcium in human hair, one that varies among individuals and another that is consistent across people.
research Investigation of aging effects in human hair using atomic force microscopy
Aging makes hair thinner and rougher, with less clear edges.
research Chapter 4 Cytomechanics of Hair
Hair's strength and flexibility come from its protein structure and molecular interactions.
research Distribution of Glycolipid and Unsaturated Fatty Acids in Human Hair
Human hair has more unsaturated fats inside than on the surface, and certain lipids may help bind the outer and inner layers together.
research Association analysis of polymorphisms in six keratin genes with wool traits in sheep
Certain gene mutations are linked to wool quality in sheep and could help in breeding for better wool.
research Perspectives on Hair Evolution Based on Some Comparative Studies on Vertebrate Cornification
Hair in mammals likely evolved from glandular structures, not scales.
research Characterization of the Promoter Regions of Two Sheep Keratin-Associated Protein Genes for Hair Cortex-Specific Expression
The KRTAP11-1 gene promoter is crucial for specific expression in sheep wool cortex.
research Lipid loses and barrier function modifications of the brown‐to‐white hair transition
White hair has less lipid content and absorbs water differently than brown hair.
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 [Cushing syndrome during pregnancy. New diagnostic methods used in 3 cases of adrenal cortex carcinoma].
Early detection of Cushing's syndrome during pregnancy is crucial to prevent severe complications.
research Scanning Electron Microscopy Approach for Evaluation of Hair Dyed with Lawsonia inermis Powder: in vitro Study

research Hair-Growth-Promoting Effects of Fermented Red Ginseng Marc and Traditional Polyherb Formula in C57BL/6 Mice
Fermented red ginseng and a traditional herb mix improved hair growth in mice.
research Microanatomical Observations of Hair Characteristics of Red Fox (Vulpes vulpes), Golden Jackal (Canis aureus), and Gray Wolf (Canis lupus): A Comparative Study
Red fox, golden jackal, and gray wolf hairs have similar features but differ in length, thickness, and inner structure.
research Biomechanics of chemically treated hair for continuous 1D strands
NaOH treatment improves hair strength and suitability for textiles.
research Ultrastructural Characteristics of Neonate Scalp Hair
Neonate scalp hair is thinner, lacks a medulla, and has smaller follicles compared to adult hair.
research Hair Straightening
Hair straightening changes hair structure and can cause damage if done wrong, but improvements in the methods are expected to continue.
research Healthy Hair: Form and Function
Hair health is influenced by genetics, aging, and environmental factors, with proper care needed to maintain it.
research Hair follicle characteristics and fibre production in South American camelids
South American camelids should be sheared early, fleece type affects fiber quality, and the S/P follicle ratio doesn't distinguish between Bolivian llama genotypes.
research Cost-effectively dissecting the genetic architecture of complex wool traits in rabbits by low-coverage sequencing
Low-coverage sequencing is a cost-effective way to identify genes related to wool traits in rabbits.
research Development of MALDI-TOF-MS and MALDI-MSI methods for hair analysis and evaluation of cosmetic treatments
Argan, avocado, and coconut oils are absorbed into hair, improving hydration and protection.
research Three-dimensional architecture of macrofibrils in the human scalp hair cortex
Human hair has a complex, variable structure with a consistent matrix and double-twist pattern.
research A novel purification procedure for keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair
A new method effectively separates keratin-associated proteins and keratin from human hair.
research Organization and Expression of Hair Follicle Genes.
Hair growth is controlled by specific gene clusters and proteins, and cysteine affects hair gene expression in sheep.
research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Compartmentation of Mitochondrial and Oxidative Metabolism in Growing Hair Follicles: A Ring of Fire
Growing hair follicles have high mitochondrial activity and ROS in specific regions, aiding hair formation.
research Hair Follicle Biology and Topical Minoxidil: Possible Mechanisms of Action
Minoxidil stimulates hair growth by increasing hair thickness and prolonging growth phase.
research Influence of feed restriction on the wool proteome: A combined iTRAQ and fiber structural study
Feed restriction in sheep leads to finer wool fibers but may reduce wool quality.
research A novel cosmetic approach to treat thinning hair
A new hair treatment with caffeine and other ingredients makes hair thicker and less likely to break.
