780-810 / 1000+ results research Changes in hair chromium concentrations with increasing distances from hair roots
Hair chromium levels show past nutritional status, not environmental exposure.
research High-content drug screening for rare diseases
High-content screening is useful for finding new treatments for rare diseases and has led to FDA-approved drugs.
research Sulfur Containing Tyrosine Analogs Can Cause Selective Melanocytotoxicity Involving Tyrosinase-Mediated Apoptosis
research A Retrospective Evaluation of the Laboratory Findings of Dermatology Patients Whose Biotin Levels Were Checked
Older people tend to have higher biotin levels, which are weakly linked to certain blood components and negatively linked to triglycerides; biotin should be checked in patients with high triglycerides or medication-related skin issues, and only supplemented if deficient. Vitamin D and folate deficiencies are linked to specific skin conditions.

Using LC-MS/MS for hormone measurement can prevent false high testosterone results and avoid unnecessary tests.
research Does hair cortisol concentration reflect measurable regulatory biology of the HPA axis in healthy humans?
Hair cortisol concentration partly reflects HPA axis regulation but doesn't capture all its complexities.
