research Stable isotope analyses of carbon and nitrogen in hair keratin of suspected man-eating wolves from 1880s
The wolves suspected of man-eating in the 1880s likely ate very little human flesh and mostly consumed a diet similar to herbivores and omnivores.
research Molecular identification of keratinophilic fungi associated with hair scalp and antifungal activity of green‐synthesis zinc oxide nanoparticles
Green-synthesized zinc oxide nanoparticles effectively inhibit common fungi found on human scalp hair.
research Genomic Organization, Transcriptomic Analysis, and Functional Characterization of Avian α- and β-Keratins in Diverse Feather Forms
