30-60 / 1000+ resultsresearch Structural analysis of human hair single fibres by scanning microbeam SAXS
Hair curliness is due to uneven distribution of different cortices within the hair fiber.
research Structure and Mechanical Properties of Human Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filament Protein
Disulfide bonds make keratin in hair stronger and tougher.
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 Moisture sorption/desorption of protein fibres
Internal lipids in keratin fibers, like wool and hair, reduce water absorption and release.
research The Proteins of Normal and Aberrant Hair Keratins
Hair is mostly made of three protein types: helical, high-sulfur, and high-tyrosine.
research Three‐dimensional imaging and analysis of the surface of hair fibres using scanning electron microscopy
The new 3D imaging method accurately measures hair surface details quickly.
research Fundamental studies on the interaction between moisture and textiles. Part X. Moisture sorption properties of wool and hair fibers.
Wool and hair fibers absorb moisture similarly due to their keratin structure, with the amount of non-crystalline areas affecting the moisture uptake.
research The Influence of Electrode Potentials on the Extent of Reduction of Cystine in Hair Fibers by Reducing Agents
The effectiveness of reducing agents on hair fibers depends on their electrode potentials.
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 Human hair keratin templates for biomedical applications
Human hair keratin is a promising and sustainable biomaterial for tissue regeneration.
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 Characterization of the Promoter Regions of Two Sheep Keratin-Associated Protein Genes for Hair Cortex-Specific Expression
The KRTAP11-1 gene promoter is crucial for specific expression in sheep wool cortex.
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 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 Keratin Gene Expression in Wool Fibre Development
Only two of the four keratin genes are expressed in wool fibers.
research Mapping penetration of cosmetic compounds into hair fibers using time‐of‐flight secondary ion mass spectrometry (TOF‐SIMS)
Different oils penetrate hair differently; monounsaturated oils like olive oil penetrate better than polyunsaturated oils.
research Scanning Electron Microscopy and X-ray Microanalysis of Reconstructive Hair Fibers.
All five hair fiber products improved appearance but didn't stick to completely bald areas.
research Dose-Dependent Histopathological and Structural Impact of Chemical Hair-Straighteners on Scalp Epithelium and Hair-Fibres Using Albino Wistar Rats
Chemical hair straighteners can severely damage hair and scalp with repeated use.
research Understanding the Effect on Hair Fibers of Coloring and Bleaching Formulations Using High Pressure Differential Scanning Calorimetry (HPDSC)
Hair coloring and bleaching can permanently break down hair protein and temporarily change its properties.
research Experimental study on the compatibility and degradation of human hair keratin bridging for peripheral nerve defects
Human hair keratin is a promising material for nerve repair.
research Science and Technology of Hair Fibers
Hair fiber research combines multiple sciences to improve hair care products.
research Human Hair Keratin-Associated Proteins
Hair keratin-associated proteins are essential for strong hair, with over 80 genes showing specific patterns and variations among people.
research Hair Keratin Associated Proteins: Characterization of a Second High Sulfur KAP Gene Domain on Human Chromosome 2111In fond memory of Dr Peter Steinert.
A second domain of high sulfur KAP genes on chromosome 21q23 is crucial for hair structure.
research Size Polymorphisms in the Human Ultrahigh Sulfur Hair Keratin-Associated Protein 4, KAP4, Gene Family
The study found that variations in hair protein genes are likely due to evolutionary deletions or duplications.
research The Mean Staple Length of Wool Fibre Is Associated with Variation in the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 21-2 Gene
The KRTAP21-2 gene affects wool length and quality in sheep.
research A new staining method for visualization of keratin filaments in hair fibre cross sections.
A new method effectively visualizes keratin in hair without harsh chemicals.
research Identification of the Ovine Keratin-Associated Protein 22-1 (KAP22-1) Gene and Its Effect on Wool Traits
The gene KAP22-1 affects wool yield and fiber shape in sheep.
research Identification of the Keratin-Associated Protein 22-2 Gene in the Capra hircus and Association of Its Variation with Cashmere Traits
A new goat gene affects cashmere fiber thickness; certain variations can make the fibers coarser.
research Liquid Chromatography-Mass Spectrometry Applied to The Identification And Quantification Of Animal Hair Fibers In Textile Products
Researchers developed a method to identify and measure different animal hair fibers in textiles, successfully distinguishing materials like cashmere from cheaper fibers.
