The book is a comprehensive and current guide on hair disorders, with minor flaws.
research In vitro effects of testosterone, dihydrotestosterone and estradiol on cell growth of human hair bulb papilla cells and hair root sheath fibroblasts.
High levels of testosterone and dihydrotestosterone inhibit hair cell growth, while high levels of estradiol promote it.
research Conductive Bio-Harvesting Tonic (CBT) with an Anti-Dandruff Effect Enhances Hair Growth by Utilizing Naturally Generated Electric Energy during Human Activities
The tonic boosts hair growth and fights dandruff using natural electric energy.
research Effect of shampoo, conditioner and permanent waving on the molecular structure of human hair
Perming significantly changes hair's molecular structure, while shampoo and conditioner do not.
research In vivo investigation of the efficiency of a nanoparticle-emulsion containing polihexanide on the human skin
The nanoparticle-emulsion with polihexanide is more effective and lasts longer for skin antisepsis.
research Analytical method for the biomonitoring of bisphenols and parabens by liquid chromatography coupled to tandem mass spectrometry in human hair
