research Fracture in Hierarchical Biomaterials: Human Hair
Human hair's structure makes it tough and resistant to breaking.
research (Neuro-)endocrinology of epithelial hair follicle stem cells
Hormones and neuroendocrine factors control hair growth and color, and more research could lead to new hair treatment options.
research A Rapid Extraction Procedure of Human Hair Proteins and Identification of Phosphorylated Species.
A new method quickly extracts and identifies proteins from hair and other keratin sources.
research Structural abnormalities of the hair shaft
The document concludes that understanding hair structure is key to diagnosing hair abnormalities and recommends gentle hair care for management.
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 Characteristics of Malassezia furfur at various pH and effects of Malassezia lipids on skin cells
Malassezia furfur lipids improve skin health at pH 6.
research Biomechanics of chemically treated hair for continuous 1D strands
NaOH treatment improves hair strength and suitability for textiles.
research Micro-mechanical approaches to characterize tip growth: Insights into root hair elasto-viscoplastic properties
Root hair growth mechanics depend on turgor pressure and cell wall properties.
research Micro-mechanical approaches to characterize tip growth: Insights into Root Hair Elasto-Viscoplastic Properties
Root hair stiffness is mainly influenced by tip compression and turgor pressure.
research Cosmetic Approach for Healthy and Damaged Hair
Cosmetic procedures can harm hair, but damage can be minimized with knowledge and care; however, once hair is damaged, it cannot be reliably repaired.
research Healthy Hair: Form and Function
Hair health is influenced by genetics, aging, and environmental factors, with proper care needed to maintain it.
research Chronic Treatment with Minoxidil Induces Elastic Fiber Neosynthesis and Functional Improvement in the Aorta of Aged Mice
Minoxidil treatment increases aorta elasticity and reduces stiffness in aged mice, potentially helping with age-related heart issues.
research Skin connective tissue and ageing
Menopause reduces skin collagen and elasticity, and while estrogen therapy can help, its risks require careful consideration.
research Cosmetic aspects of pregnancy
Pregnant women often experience skin and hair changes, with over half getting stretch marks and pigment changes, and should be cautious with cosmetic procedures due to potential risks.
research The utility of elastic Verhoeff-Van Gieson staining in dermatopathology
EVG staining is a valuable, simple, and cost-effective method for diagnosing various skin conditions in dermatopathology.
research Raman spectroscopy and electronic microscopy structural studies of Caucasian and Afro human hair
Hair treatments cause significant structural changes, especially with excessive heat, regardless of ethnicity.
research Skin disease in pregnancy
Some skin conditions are common during pregnancy and can be safely treated without affecting the pregnancy outcome.
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 Association analysis of polymorphisms in six keratin genes with wool traits in sheep
Certain gene mutations are linked to wool quality in sheep and could help in breeding for better wool.
research Targeted expression of SV40 T antigen in the hair follicle of transgenic mice produces an aberrant hair phenotype
SV40 T antigen in hair follicles causes abnormal hair and health issues in mice.
research Heat‐damaged evaluation of virgin hair
Heat damages hair, with Asian hair losing more protein than Caucasian hair.
research Biology of Human Hair: Know Your Hair to Control It
Understanding hair biology is key to developing better treatments for hair and scalp issues.
research Systems Approach to Human Hair Fibers: Interdependence Between Physical, Mechanical, Biochemical and Geometric Properties of Natural Healthy Hair
Hair properties are interconnected; a comprehensive, cross-disciplinary approach is essential for understanding hair behavior.
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 External lipid function in ethnic hairs
African hair has the most lipids, while Caucasian hair is more hydrated and stronger.
research pH Dependence of the Coiled-Coil Structure of Keratin Intermediate Filament in Human Hair by 13C NMR Spectroscopy and the Mechanism of Its Disruption
Keratin structure in hair is stable at pH 5-6 but disrupts between pH 6-7.
research Ultrastructural aspect of the keratinolytic activity of piedra.
Piedraia hortae fungi dissolve both the outer and inner layers of hair.
research HAIR | Overview
The document explains how hair is studied in forensics to identify its source and its role in criminal investigations.
research Risks of Protein Conditioner Application under the Impact of Heat and/or Gamma Irradiation in Albino Rats
Repeated use of protein hair conditioner with heat or gamma irradiation can harm skin and hair health in rats.
