Traditional methods may not fully capture how the brain and breathing systems respond to carbon dioxide changes.
research 0847 The addition of collagen scaffolds to human cell therapy to modify skin identity
Collagen scaffolds in cell therapy can transform skin to be more resilient and pressure-responsive.
research Skin aging as a mechanical phenomenon: The main weak links
Skin aging is largely due to differences in stiffness and elasticity between skin layers, leading to wrinkles.
research Stiffness-Controlled Thermoresponsive Hydrogels for Cell Harvesting with Sustained Mechanical Memory
The hydrogels help harvest cells while preserving their mechanical memory, which could improve wound healing.
research The frictional properties of wool and related hair fibers.
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 Regulation of hard α-keratin mechanics via control of intermediate filament hydration: matrix squeeze revisited
Hard α-keratins stay stiff in water because the surrounding matrix keeps them dehydrated and strong.
research The role of cochlea extracellular matrix in age related hearing loss
Changes in the cochlea's extracellular matrix contribute to age-related hearing loss.
research X-rays studies of the structure of hair, wool, and related fibres. II. - The molecular structure and elastic properties of hair keratin
