research In vitro methodology, hormonal and nutritional effects and fibre production in isolated ovine and caprine anagen hair follicles
Angora goat hair grows faster and produces more protein than cashmere goat hair, and certain hormones and nutrients positively affect hair growth and protein synthesis.
research Exploring Variation in Ovine KRTAP19-5 and Its Effect on Fine Wool Fibre Curvature in Chinese Tan Sheep
The KRTAP19-5 gene affects wool curvature in Chinese Tan sheep, with Variant B reducing curvature.
research A discrete transition zone between cuticle and cortex layers of a human hair fibre: changes observed in the presence of breast cancer
Breast cancer alters specific molecular structures in hair, which revert after cancer removal.
research The presence of glycoproteins in the cell membrane complex of a variety of keratin fibres
Glycoproteins are present in the cell membranes of various keratin fibers.
research Evaluation of carcinogenic effect of mineral oil used in the processing of jute fibres.
Jute-batching oil alone didn't cause cancer in mice, but it may promote cancer when combined with another carcinogen.
research A detailed mapping of the readily accessible disulphide bonds in the cortex of wool fibres
Researchers found that the most reachable bonds in wool fibers are near the ends of certain proteins, which help stabilize the fiber's structure.
