Reducing copper (II) ion levels in hair can decrease hair damage.
research Fiber-Safe Extraction of Red Mordant Dyes from Hair Fibers
Researchers developed a less damaging way to extract red dyes from wool using EDTA and DMF, preserving the fiber's strength for further analysis.
research Increased Macrophage Migration Inhibitory Factor (MIF) in the Sera of Patients with Extensive Alopecia Areata
Patients with severe alopecia areata have higher levels of MIF, which decrease after successful treatment.
research Integrated Analysis of miRNAs and mRNA Profiling Reveals the Potential Role of miRNAs in Sheep Hair Follicle Development
Certain miRNAs may play a role in sheep hair follicle development, which could help improve wool production.
research Exogenous and endogenous lipids of human hair
Removing external lipids from hair reduces moisture and increases strength, while removing internal lipids decreases water permeability.
research Characteristic Microstructure of Curved Human Hair
Curved human hair has different structures on each side, which might cause its shape and is similar to wool.
research Differential expression of KRT83 regulated by the transcript factor CAP1 in Chinese Tan sheep
CAP1 decreases the expression of a hair-related protein in young Tan sheep's skin.
research A Review of Keratin-Based Biomaterials for Biomedical Applications

The research improved understanding of yak hair growth to help use yak wool better.
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 Whole-genome resequencing to investigate the genetic diversity and the molecular basis underlying key economic traits in indigenous sheep breeds adapted to hypoxic environments
Tibetan sheep have specific genes for high-altitude adaptation and wool traits, aiding breeding strategies.
research Tensile properties of twisted hair fibers
Twisting hair weakens it, but strength can be recovered at low twist levels.
research Using proteomics to compare the molecular structures of sulfide and permeate-depilated sheepskins
The conclusion is that using bovine milk permeate to remove wool from sheepskins is eco-friendly and results in smoother, higher quality leather compared to traditional sulfide methods.
research Reproductive seasonality and maturation throughout the complete life-cycle in the mouflon ram (Ovis musimon)
Mouflon rams mature gradually with changes in body, horns, and hormones linked to age and seasons, reaching full sexual maturity well after puberty.
research Analysis of structural changes in permanent waved human hair using Raman spectroscopy
Permanent waving weakens hair by altering its protein structure.
