research The Extraction of Keratin from Human Hair Waste for Copolymerization with Nitrile Butadiene Rubber
Human hair keratin mixed with rubber slightly improves its strength and biodegradability.
research Effects of Hair Fibers on Braking Friction Materials
Adding 1% hair fibers to brake materials improves friction and wear, making them more effective.
research In This Issue
Advancements in hair biology include new treatments and tools for hair growth and alopecia.
research FC056 The ideal catagen of the hair
Blocking IL-1 could help treat some hair loss conditions; alopecia affects liver detox systems; spironolactone is better than finasteride for female hair growth; focusing on the catagen hair phase could lead to new alopecia treatments.
research Caspase-1 Level Is Higher in the Scalp in Androgenetic Alopecia
Higher caspase-1 levels found in balding scalps; reducing it may help treat hair loss.
