30 / 1000+ resultsresearch Observation of different HHK groups with SEM
Different human hair keratin types have unique structures that affect how they dissolve and can be used to create self-tendons.
research Progressive hair straightening using an automated flat iron: function of silicones.
The automated flat iron can permanently straighten hair without chemicals, especially at 154°C, and silicone improves the results.
research Unzipping the cuticle of the human hair shaft to obtain micron/nano keratin filaments
Researchers extracted tiny keratin filaments from human hair by unzipping its outer layer.
research Spatial and Temporal Coordination of Force-generating Actin-based Modules Drives Membrane RemodelingIn Vivo
Actin filaments help stabilize and integrate cell membranes during transfer.
