research Fractal geometry and topology abstracted from hair fibers
Hair fibers have fractal patterns with properties related to the golden mean, which may affect their functionality.
research Modeling Dynamic Hair as a Continuum
The authors created a realistic and efficient method to simulate hair movement by combining fluid dynamics with individual hair strand behavior.
research Using light to study sound: Stimulating hair cells with photonic pressure
Light can be used to stimulate ear hair cells, improving speed and consistency over previous methods.
research Hair Whorls in the Dog (Canis familiaris). I. Distribution
Most dogs have hair whorls on their chest and limbs, with shelter dogs and short-haired dogs having more chest whorls.
research Hair-Hair Contact Dynamics and Interactions Studied with Atomic Force Microscopy
Hair movement can indicate hair quality and health.
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 J. Cosmet. Sci., 59, 263–289 (July/August 2008) Characterization of curved hair of Japanese women with reference to internal structures and amino acid composition
Japanese women's curved hair has an uneven internal structure and varied amino acid composition.
research Quasi-Static Torsional Deformation of Single Hair Fibers: Application of a Modeling Approach and Results from Cosmetic Treatments.
The research found that twisting hair fibers can show changes in stiffness and damage, and help tell apart different hair treatments.
research The Hair Cell Analysis Toolbox: A machine learning-based whole cochlea analysis pipeline
The Hair Cell Analysis Toolbox automates and improves the analysis of cochlear hair cells using machine learning.
research Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor Regulates Skin Nerve Outgrowth and Branching
EGFR is essential for organized skin nerve growth and branching.
research Analyzing the laser-light reflection from human hair fibers. I. Light components underlying the goniophotometric curves and fiber cuticle angles.
The research found a way to measure hair surface changes by analyzing how light reflects off of it, and determined hair cuticle angles vary by hair length and color.
research Hair-Hair Contact Dynamics and Interactions Studied with Atomic Force Microscopy
Hair movement can indicate hair quality and health.
research Differential wetting characterization of hair fibers.
The new method can tell how hair fibers react to moisture after treatments.
research Carbon-13 n.m.r. studies of keratin intermediate filament of human hair
Human hair keratin has a 40% α-helix structure that changes to a random coil in 8 M urea.
research Acquired morphological changes of mammalian hair scales
Mammalian hair scales change from smooth to wavy due to friction.
research Wavelength-encoded laser particles for massively-multiplexed cell tagging
New laser particles can track thousands of cells in 3D models, improving single-cell analysis.
research Complex nanoemulsion for vitamin delivery: droplet organization and interaction with skin membranes
The research shows how a specially structured nanoemulsion delivers vitamins A and E through the skin.
research In Vitro, Ex Vivo, Penetration (EpiDermTM) and in Vivo Dermatokinetics of Ketoconazole Loaded Solid Lipid Nanoparticles for Topical Delivery
Ketoconazole loaded solid lipid nanoparticles can penetrate skin better than regular drug suspension and marketed product, providing slow, sustained release and improved stability.
research Effect of Aspartic Acid Intermediate Treatment on Virgin Hair by Permanent Wave
Aspartic acid at 0.75% makes perms more effective and less damaging to hair.
research Organization of microfibrils in keratin fibers studied by X-ray scattering
The study improved understanding of keratin fiber structure by showing consistent microfibril diameter but varying distances and electron density profiles.
research Analysis of cosmetic residues on a single human hair by ATR FT-IR microspectroscopy
Cosmetic residues on individual hairs can be identified and differentiated using ATR FT-IR microspectroscopy.
research Multiscale modelling of human hair
Human hair becomes weaker and stretches more easily at higher temperatures.
research Adaptations in the structure and innervation of follicle‐sinus complexes to an aquatic environment as seen in the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris)
