May 2026 in “Archives of Dermatological Research” The study examines the protective effects of vitamin E and γ-oryzanol on hair exposed to UV-B radiation. Hair samples from different age groups and genders showed significant structural damage when untreated. However, treatment with these compounds reduced protein loss by up to 50%, with γ-oryzanol offering superior protection. Analytical techniques confirmed better preservation of hair integrity, particularly in female samples. The results suggest that vitamin E and γ-oryzanol could be effective, sustainable agents for protecting hair from UV damage, aiding in maintaining hair health and appearance under environmental stress.
