research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research Stability of opiates in hair fibers after exposure to cosmetic treatment
Cosmetic treatments like bleaching and perming can greatly reduce opiate levels in hair, possibly leading to false-negative drug tests.
research Wetting behavior of human hair fibers
Human hair's ability to get wet is complex and can change with treatments, damage, and environment.
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.
