30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Analysis of structural change in keratin fibers resulting from chemical treatments using Raman spectroscopy
Chemical hair straightening changes hair proteins and mostly fixes broken bonds.
research Analysis of heterogeneous reaction between reducing agents and keratin fibers using Raman spectroscopy and microspectrophotometry
The study found that thioglycolic acid breaks down hair bonds more consistently than l-cysteine, which is less damaging to hair.
research New method of dyeing keratin fibers using poly(ethylene imine) and its coloring mechanism
A new method using poly(ethylene imine) improves hair dyeing at lower temperatures with better color retention.
research Mapping the accessibility of the disulfide crosslink network in the wool fiber cortex
Cysteines in wool fibers are accessible and form important disulfide bonds.
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 The structure of the “amorphous” matrix of keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research Volume Changes During Water Binding to Hair Fibers
Hair increases in size when it absorbs water, and treatments like bleaching affect how much water it can take in.
research Expression analysis of the type I keratin protein keratin 33A in goat coat hair
Keratin 33A is a key protein in goat winter coats, especially in high-producing breeds.
research Chronological ageing of human hair keratin fibres
Hair ages as the cuticle wears down, especially beyond 1 meter from the root, affecting its strength and shine.
research Structural investigation on damaged hair keratin treated with α,β-unsaturated Michael acceptors used as repairing agents
Treatments improved hair surface and scale structure but didn't increase certain bonds in the hair cortex.
research In vitro evaluation of changes of hair fibers subjected to oxidation-reductive straighteners associated with dyeing
Straightening and dyeing damage hair structure.
research Effects of repeated exposure to ozonated water on hair fibre structure and integrity: Part I
Ozonated water damages hair structure and proteins.
research Attenuated Total Reflection Fourier Transform Infrared Spectroscopy Analysis of Human Hair Fiber Structure
Human hair has different protein structures in its cuticle and cortex.
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 Cross-linked features of mouse pelage hair resistant to detergent extraction
Some mutant mice have hair with abnormal cross-linking, mainly in the cuticle, not affecting other hair parts.
research The Secrets of Beautiful Hair: Why is it Flexible and Elastic?
Beautiful hair is flexible and elastic due to its unique double-layered structure and can be enhanced with succinic acid treatment.
research The Degradative Characteristics of Hair in The Water Samples with Altered pH
Hair fibers degrade and change color in very basic water.
research Cyclic hair-loss and regrowth in transgenic mice overexpressing an intermediate filament gene.
Mice with extra sheep genes had hair that fell out and regrew in cycles.
research Keratin Gene Expression Differences in Wool Follicles and Sequence Diversity of High Glycine-Tyrosine Keratin-Associated Proteins (Kaps) in Magra Sheep of India
Magra sheep's wool luster is linked to specific keratin gene expression and protein variations.
research An Electron Microscopy Study of Keratin Degradation by the Fungus Microsporum gypseum in vitro
Microsporum gypseum fungus breaks down keratin in hair by digesting it enzymatically, starting with less keratinized parts.
research Human hair keratin network and curvature
Curly hair shape is due to uneven growth patterns in the hair follicle.
