research An isotope dilution-liquid chromatography-tandem mass spectrometry-based candidate reference measurement procedure for the quantification of 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in human serum and plasma
The procedure accurately measures 5-alpha-dihydrotestosterone in blood, useful for standard tests.
research Automated digital image analysis (TrichoScan) in male patients with androgenetic alopecia; comparison with manual marking of hairs on trichoscopic images
TrichoScan needs optimization as it underestimated hair density by 38.9% compared to manual counting.
research Faculty Opinions recommendation of Clinical utility and validity of minoxidil response testing in androgenetic alopecia.
A hair test can accurately predict if a person with hair loss will respond to minoxidil treatment.
research Differential Stripping: Determination of the Amount of Topically Applied Substances Penetrated into the Hair Follicles
The new "differential stripping" method effectively measures how much substance gets into hair follicles.
research Patch testing procedures in patients suffering from suspected allergic contact dermatitis to minoxidil
Allergic reactions to minoxidil may be due to the propylene glycol it is mixed with, not the minoxidil itself.
research Validation of TrichoScan® technology as a fully-automated tool for evaluation of hair growth parameters
TrichoScan® is a reliable tool for measuring hair growth, providing quicker and more consistent results than manual methods.
research TTRICHOGENIC PROPERTY OF DALANDAN (CITRUS AURANTIUM) PEEL OIL ON SHAVED ALBINO ICR MICE
research Enzyme-linked immunosorbent assays for doping control of 5α-reductase inhibitors finasteride and dutasteride
New tests detect finasteride and dutasteride in urine quickly and easily.
research Homologous recombination induced by doxazosin mesylate and saw palmetto in the Drosophila wing‐spot test
Doxazosin mesylate and saw palmetto cause genetic changes in fruit flies.
research Metabolic study of androsta-1,4,6-triene-3,17-dione in horses using liquid chromatography/high resolution mass spectrometry
The study found that urine metabolites M1b or M4 are the best indicators of ATD use in horses, with detection possible up to 77 hours in urine and 28 hours in blood.
research Morphology of the testis and the epididymis in rats with dihydrotestosterone (DHT) deficiency.
DHT deficiency in rats reduces sperm content and affects testis structure over time.
research Testosterone and doping control
The document concludes that better biomarkers are needed to detect long-term oral testosterone use in athletes.
research Ex-vivo measurement of scalp follicular infundibulum delivery of zinc pyrithione and climbazole from an anti-dandruff shampoo
The method shows that zinc pyrithione and climbazole from anti-dandruff shampoo effectively reach the scalp.
research Proposition of a low cost field assay to determine antiproliferative properties of indigenous plants using Dugesia dorotocephala (brown planaria)
The study showed that brown planaria can be used to cheaply test if local plants can stop cell growth.
research Utility of trichoscopy in comparison to the standard methods for assessing the disease activity, severity, and therapeutic response in alopecia areata
Trichoscopy is better than the hair pull test for tracking alopecia areata.
research Development of a Liquid Chromatography/Mass Spectrometry-Based Inhibition Assay for the Screening of Steroid 5-α Reductase in Human and Fish Cell Lines
A new method was created to test the effectiveness of Dihydrotestosterone (DHT) inhibitors, like finasteride and dutasteride, in human and fish cells. The results showed fish cells are more sensitive to these treatments, and dutasteride works better than finasteride in all tested cells.
research Phototrichogram as a tool to assess the effectiveness of minoxidil therapy in patients with androgenetic alopecia
research Long-term detection of methyltestosterone (ab-) use by a yeast transactivation system
A yeast-based test can detect the steroid methyltestosterone in urine longer than traditional methods.
research Analysis of keratin films as screening tools for predicting the efficacy of potential hair dyes
Translucent keratin films are better for testing hair dyes.
research Gradient-dependent release of the model drug TRITC-dextran from FITC-labeled BSA hydrogel nanocarriers in the hair follicles of porcine ear skin
The drug was successfully released into hair follicles using nanocarriers.
research TrichoScan: A Novel Tool For The Analysis of Hair Growth In Vivo
TrichoScan is a reliable method for measuring hair growth and is useful for assessing hair loss treatments.
research Hair-to-Hair Trichoscopy: An Objective Method to Assess Effectiveness of Botulinum Toxin in a Clinical Trial for Androgenetic Alopecia
Trichoscopy, a method of examining hair, can objectively measure how well botulinum toxin works for hair loss treatment.
research Clinical utility and validity of minoxidil response testing in androgenetic alopecia
Minoxidil response testing helps predict hair growth success.
research Clinical utility and validity of minoxidil response testing in androgenetic alopecia
Minoxidil response testing helps treat hair loss effectively and safely.
research TrichoScan: combining epiluminescence microscopy with digital image analysis for the measurement of hair growth in vivo.
TrichoScan accurately measures hair growth and showed improved hair counts and thickness after finasteride treatment.
research Rapid and Accurate Digital Measurement of the Recipient Area in Hair Transplantation Using a Tablet Application
The SketchAndCalc app is a faster and more precise method for measuring hair transplant areas than traditional grid counting.
