research A modular modeling approach for investigating wool critical buckling from biologically variable along-fiber microstructure
The model helps understand how wool fiber structure affects its strength and flexibility.
research Multiscale modelling of human hair
Human hair becomes weaker and stretches more easily at higher temperatures.
research LB1027 Identifying the mechanism of tension-associated tissue fibrosis based on single cell RNA sequencing on keloid scar
Mechanical tension worsens keloid scars by activating inflammation and fibrosis pathways.
research X-rays studies of the structure of hair, wool, and related fibres. II. - The molecular structure and elastic properties of hair keratin
Stretched hair has a similar structure to natural silk, showing hair's elasticity involves reversible changes within its molecules.
research Mechanism research of yak hair stretching slenderization based on the changes of conformation and cell shape
Yak hair stretches mainly due to macromolecules slipping past each other.
research The Secrets of Beautiful Hair: Why is it Flexible and Elastic?
Beautiful hair is flexible and elastic due to its unique double-layered structure and can be enhanced with succinic acid treatment.
research Association Between Scalp Laxity, Elasticity, and Glidability and Donor Strip Scar Width in Hair Transplantation and a New Elasticity Measuring Method
Higher scalp elasticity leads to wider scars after hair transplantation; a new method to measure elasticity may help predict scar size.
research Elastoinertial effects govern dynamic response of soft hair beds
Hair beds in fluid show nonlinear response due to viscosity, inertia, and elasticity.
research Self-consistent field theory for the interactions between keratin intermediate filaments
Keratin filaments' elasticity is influenced by their terminal domains and surrounding medium.
research Physical Properties of Human Hair. 1. Evaluation of Bending Stress by Measuring the Major and the Minor Axis of Human Hair.
The cuticle significantly contributes to hair stiffness, making up about 60% of the total bending stress.
research Pseudoxanthoma-like late-onset focal dermal elastosis
A woman had a skin condition with increased normal elastic fibers, not related to other known disorders, likely due to aging.
research A Raman spectroscopy investigation of the resilience of hair cuticular scales under uniaxial stress
research Arrangement of elastic fibres in the integument of domesticated mammals.
Elastic fiber arrangement in mammal skin varies by hair density and body region.
research The Association Between Scalp Laxity, Elasticity, and Glidability and Donor Strip Scar Width in Hair Transplantation—A New Elasticity Measuring Method
Scalp laxity, elasticity, and glidability are important in hair transplants and can predict scar width at the donor site.
research Nanomechanical characterization of human hair using nanoindentation and SEM
Human hair's strength and flexibility vary by ethnicity, damage, and treatment.
research STUDY ON CONNECTIVE TISSUE FIBRE IN NECK SKIN OF GOAT
Goat neck skin has a complex network of collagen, elastic, and reticular fibers.
research CosmeticPotential of a Structural Protein CopolymerBased on Silk, Elastin, and Keratin
SELP::KP improves hair strength, elasticity, and health, making it a promising hair cosmetic.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.
research Assessment of styling performance in hair gels and hair sprays by means of a new two-point stiffness test.
The new stiffness test works well for gels but not for sprays.
