240-270 / 1000+ resultsresearch Change in surface chemistry of the cuticle of human hair by chemical and photochemical oxidation
Oxidation changes human hair by breaking down fats and forming new acidic groups, affecting how it interacts with conditioners and cosmetics.
research The frictional properties of wool and related hair fibers.
research Optical coherence tomography to evaluate the effects of oxidative hair dye on the fiber
Oxidative hair dye changes hair color and structure but doesn't weaken it.
research Characterization of the exocuticle a‐layer proteins of wool
The outer layer of Merino wool is rich in sulfur proteins, making it resistant to damage.
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 Cellular Debris in the Grease of Wool Fibers
Cellular debris sticks to damaged wool fibers and affects wool cleanliness.
research Enzyme Treatment of Wool and Specialty Hair Fibers
Enzymes xylanase and pectinase clean wool and specialty hair fibers effectively without damage, offering an eco-friendly alternative to soap and hot water.
research Wool Fibres: Sectioning and Staining, Differentiation of Ortho and Paracortex
research In vitro evaluation of changes of hair fibers subjected to oxidation-reductive straighteners associated with dyeing
Straightening and dyeing damage hair structure.
research Senile hair graying: H 2 O 2 ‐mediated oxidative stress affects human hair color by blunting methionine sulfoxide repair
Gray hair is caused by hydrogen peroxide buildup, which damages hair color repair.
research A comparison of dyeing efficacy between hair‐oxidation‐based and hair‐coating‐based shampoos for the treatment of gray hair
Hair-coating shampoos dye better initially, but hair-oxidation shampoos keep color longer and may damage hair more.
research Characterisation of low abundance wool proteins through novel differential extraction techniques
New techniques helped identify rare wool proteins by reducing dominant ones.
