Research
90-120 / 1000+ resultsresearch Amino Acid Content of Damaged Human Hair
High temperatures and certain chemicals can significantly change the amino acid content in human hair.
research Action of Nucleophilic Reagents on Hair Keratin
Nucleophilic reagents break down hair keratin, forming more lanthionine and lysinoalanine than in wool.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Keratin formation in the hair follicle
Keratin fibrils in hair form and stop growing at specific points in the follicle.
research Biomechanics of chemically treated hair for continuous 1D strands
NaOH treatment improves hair strength and suitability for textiles.
research Mechanical properties characterization of human hair fibers cortex region by multiparametric Atomic Force Microscopy mapping
The active ingredient improves the strength of damaged hair fibers.
research Enzymatic approach to analyze the effects of mercaptans on hair
Mercaptans make hair more prone to damage, with reduced hair being more affected than permed hair.
research Reproduction Mechanism of SS Cross-Links in Permed Hair by the Washing after Reduction with Thioglycolic Acid
Washing permed hair after using thioglycolic acid helps reform strong bonds, making hair stronger.
research Failure of intercellular adhesion in hair fibers with regard to hair condition and strain conditions
Hair breaks differently when wet or dry and is affected by its condition and treatments like perms and bleaching.
research P5 Assembly of hair keratins in thansfected cultured cells
research Crystallin Fusion Proteins Improve the Thermal Properties of Hair
Fusion proteins can protect hair from heat damage.
research Structural changes in trichocyte keratin intermediate filaments during keratinization
Keratin structure changes during keratinization, but the exact model remains uncertain.
research ‘Hard’ and ‘soft’ principles defining the structure, function and regulation of keratin intermediate filaments
Keratin filaments are crucial for cell structure and protection, with ongoing discoveries about their genes and functions.
research In Vitro Assembly and Structure of Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filaments
Scientists successfully created mouse hair proteins in the lab, which are stable and similar to natural hair.
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 Coordination of force-generating actin-based modules stabilizes and remodels membranes in vivo
Actin filaments help stabilize and reshape cell membranes.
research Investigation of the damage on the outermost hair surface using ToF‐SIMS and XPS
Bleaching hair causes significant damage by breaking down proteins and fatty acids.
research Investigation of human hair fibers using lateral force microscopy
Hair treatments like bleaching increase friction by exposing tiny pores on the hair surface.
research Degradation of human hair keratin scaffold material used to repair in-jured skeletal muscles of rabbits
research Photoinduced formation of thiols in human hair
UV exposure damages hair, increasing thiols and altering protein structure.
research Rand Protease: The Role of Calcium-Binding Site on Stability with Mutagenesis and The Effectiveness on Leather Dehairing
The enzyme Rand protease works well for leather dehairing and its stability is important, with Leu75 playing a key role.
research <b>Direct Observation of Hair Components Involved in Formation of Permanent Waves</b>
Microfibrils are key for permanent waves, and hydrolyzed keratin improves wave formation and hair condition.
research In-Situ Tensile Testing of Hair Fibers in An Environmental Scanning Electron Microscope (ESEM)
Hair fibers break by cuticle cell slipping, shape changing, cuticle fraying, and surface cracking when stretched under specific conditions.

Skin cell strength decreases significantly as we age.
research The toughening transition in hair keratin
The observed "toughening" in keratin was actually due to water evaporation, not a real change in keratin.
research The Anti-Flyaway/Frizz Effect by Inducing the α-Helical Structure Transition of Hair
ATG effectively reduces hair frizz without damaging hair strength.
research cDNA Cloning, Expression, and Assembly Characteristics of Mouse Keratin 16
Mouse and human keratin 16 can both form filaments, with differences likely due to the tail domain, not the helical domain.
