research Activated carbon fiber derived from the seed hair fibers of Metaplexis japonica: Novel efficient adsorbent for methylene blue
Activated carbon fibers from Metaplexis japonica seed hair are highly effective for removing the dye methylene blue from water.
research Charge density alterations in human hair fibers: an investigation using electrostatic force microscopy
The study found that a polymer treatment changes the charge on hair surfaces, making bleached hair smoother and less porous.
research Self-organization process in newborn skin organoid formation inspires strategy to restore hair regeneration of adult cells
Newborn mouse skin cells can grow hair and this process can be recreated in adult cells to potentially help with hair loss.
research Engineered Skin Substitute Regenerates the Skin with Hair Follicle Formation
The engineered skin substitute helped grow skin with hair on mice.
research Distribution and Localization of Hydrophobic and Ionic Chemical Groups at the Surface of Bleached Human Hair Fibers
Bleaching hair removes its protective top layer and exposes more hydrophilic groups, changing its chemical surface and affecting how it interacts with products.
research Microscopic high-resolution digital volumetric imaging of human hair fibers
DVI provides detailed 3D imaging of hair and shows how various products protect and enhance hair.
research Ozone interactions with human hair: Ozone uptake rates and product formation
Ozone reacts more with unwashed hair, producing compounds due to scalp oils, which could lower ozone exposure but increase exposure to reaction products.
research In Vitro Methodologies to Evaluate the Effects of Hair Care Products on Hair Fiber
Different tests are used to see how hair care products affect hair, and choosing the right test is important for accurate results.
research Investigating the internal structure of sheep wool hair fibre using new microscopic techniques
Curly wool has more orthocortex than straight wool.
research Multifunctional Merkel cells: Their roles in electromagnetic reception, finger-print formation, Reiki, epigenetic inheritance and hair form
Merkel cells may have roles in sensing magnetic fields, creating fingerprints, Reiki energy healing, passing on environmental information to offspring, and influencing hair shape.
research Study on modification of rabbit hair fibers with L-cysteine
L-cysteine and ultrasound successfully improved rabbit hair fibers for industrial use.
research Enzyme Treatment of Wool and Specialty Hair Fibers
Enzymes xylanase and pectinase clean wool and specialty hair fibers effectively without damage, offering an eco-friendly alternative to soap and hot water.
research Atmospheric Pressure Plasma Jet Treatment of Human Hair Fibers
Plasma jet treatments can clean hair and might replace peroxide for hair care.
research Anti-keratin Monoclonal Antibodies for Identifying Animal Hair Fibers
Scientists made antibodies to tell cashmere and wool apart, which could improve how we identify animal fibers.
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 812 Multi-view light sheet florescence microscopy (LSFM) for imaging cellular self-assembly in spheroids of human hair follicle dermal papilla cells and keratinocytes
The technique effectively shows how human skin and hair cells form into ball-like structures.
research The Influence of Surgical Stress on Human Scalp Hair Fiber Dimensions
Surgical stress temporarily changes hair fiber dimensions, returning to normal after four weeks.
research Culture of the human pilosebaceous unit, hair follicle and sebaceous gland
The article concludes that developing in vitro models for human hair structures is important for research and reducing animal testing, but there are challenges like obtaining suitable samples and the models' limitations.
research Effects of EGF on the Morphology and Patterns of DNA Synthesis in Isolated Human Hair Follicles
EGF makes hair follicles grow longer but stops hair production.
research Gene Expression of Mouse S100A3, a Cysteine-Rich Calcium-Binding Protein, in Developing Hair Follicle
S100A3 protein is crucial for hair shaft formation in mice.
research The hair growth promoting effect of 4-O-methylhonokiol
4-O-methylhonokiol from Magnolia officinalis significantly promotes hair growth.
research Use of hair pores to determine the orientation of collagen fibers in skin
A new method using hair pores can help align skin grafts better, improving results.
research Morphology and ultrastructure of antler velvet hair and body hair from red deer (Cervus elaphus)
Antler velvet hair and body hair of red deer have different structures that help with protection and insulation.
research In situ labeling of DNA reveals interindividual variation in nuclear DNA breakdown in hair and may be useful to predict success of forensic genotyping of hair
In situ DNA labeling in hair can help predict forensic DNA analysis success.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research Synthetic hair reactions and treatment of complications: Case reports
Synthetic hair implants can cause severe scalp problems and removing them improves conditions; natural hair transplants are safer and more effective.
