30-60 / 682 resultsresearch An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
research Solubility of Structurally Complicated Materials: 3. Hair
Hair is hard to dissolve because of its complex proteins, but certain solvents that break specific bonds and hydrate can do it.
research Polarization Microscopy of Hair in Acrodermatitis Enteropathica
Zinc therapy improved hair health in a girl with acrodermatitis enteropathica.
research Generalized trichorrhexis nodosa
The hair disorder was caused by abnormal protein formation, making hair easily damaged.
research Crystalline Cataract and Uncombable Hair
The study found no common cause for a girl's crystalline cataract and uncombable hair, suggesting their co-occurrence might be coincidental.
research [Trichothiodystrophy: a morphological and biochemical study].
Trichothiodystrophy involves brittle hair due to low sulfur amino acids, not a transport defect.
research Protective effect of conditioning agents on Afro‐ethnic hair chemically treated with thioglycolate‐based straightening emulsion
Conditioning agents, especially jojoba oil and lauryl PEG/PPG-18/18 methicone, protect and strengthen chemically straightened Afro-ethnic hair.
research The Proteins of Normal and Aberrant Hair Keratins
Hair is mostly made of three protein types: helical, high-sulfur, and high-tyrosine.
research Mapping the accessibility of the disulfide crosslink network in the wool fiber cortex
Cysteines in wool fibers are accessible and form important disulfide bonds.
research ARCHAEOLOGICAL AND CONTEMPORARY HUMAN HAIR COMPOSITION AND MORPHOLOGY
Mummy hair's chemical composition may not accurately show ancient people's health due to environmental contamination.
research In utero Diagnosis of Trichothiodystrophy by Endoscopically-Guided Fetal Eyebrow Biopsy
Prenatal diagnosis of trichothiodystrophy is possible in the second trimester using fetal eyebrow biopsy, with sulfur content analysis being more reliable.
research A Fatty Acid / Protein Complex in Human Hair
A fatty acid/protein complex in human hair helps protect it from damage.
research Photoageing of Hair Fiber and Photoprotection
Sunlight damages hair, causing cuticle loss, protein changes, and discoloration.
research Hair as an Index of Protein Malnutrition
Hair cystine levels may indicate protein malnutrition, but more research is needed.
research African hair morphology: macrostructure to ultrastructure
African hair is more fragile due to its unique shape and internal structure.
research Hair Amino Acids: Normal Values and Results in Metabolic Errors
Hair amino acid levels can indicate metabolic disorders.
research CERTAIN PHASES OF SULFUR METABOLISM OF THE SKIN
Cystine is crucial for forming keratin in hair, wool, and nails.
research Copper and calcium uptake in colored hair
Hair coloring increases copper and calcium uptake, damaging hair and reducing shine.
research Charge density alterations in human hair fibers: an investigation using electrostatic force microscopy
The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.
research Incorporation of Selenium-75 into Dog Hair
Selenium-75 stays in dog hair for up to 316 days.
research The Oxidative Degradation of Keratin (Wool and Bovine Hair)
Oxidizing agents break down keratin in wool and hair, causing swelling and increased solubility.
research Mechanism of hair straightening
Hair can be straightened using different chemicals, not just strong alkali.
research Arginosuccinicaciduria
The girl had a rare disorder causing mental and physical symptoms, with weak hair and unclear neurological issues.
research Action of Nucleophilic Reagents on Hair Keratin
Nucleophilic reagents break down hair keratin, forming more lanthionine and lysinoalanine than in wool.
research Alopecia in Rats Fed Certain Soybean Oil Meal Rations.
Rats fed soybean oil meal lost hair, but adding inositol, biotin, cystine, or methionine to their diet prevented this and improved growth.
research Preparation of Water Soluble Wool Keratin and Its Application for Human Hair
Water-soluble wool keratin can protect human hair from damage during treatments.
research Characterization of tiger tail banding and hair shaft abnormalities in trichothiodystrophy
Tiger tail banding and hair abnormalities are reliable indicators for diagnosing trichothiodystrophy.
research The site of uptake of iodine by hair
Iodine is absorbed by hair just below the skin surface.
research The clinical effect of plum blossom needle acupuncture with qi-invigorating superficies-consolidating therapy on seborrheic alopecia
Plum blossom needle acupuncture with qi-invigorating therapy is more effective for Seborrheic Alopecia than Western medicine.
