390-420 / 1000+ results research Onion Juice (Allium cepa L.), A New Topical Treatment for Alopecia Areata
Onion juice is more effective than tap water for hair re-growth in patchy alopecia areata.
research Increased rate of hair keratin gene loss in the cetacean lineage
Cetaceans lost hair genes to adapt to water.
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 Experimental and thermodynamic analyses of supercritical CO2-Solubility of minoxidil as an antihypertensive drug
Minoxidil dissolves better in propylene glycol + water than in supercritical CO2.
research The Story of the Finest Armor: Developmental Aspects of Reptile Skin
Reptile skin protects and prevents water loss, helping them adapt to land.
research ToF‐SIMS characterization of the lipid layer on the hair surface. II : Effect of the 18‐MEA lipid layer on surface hydrophobicity
18-MEA is essential for hair's water resistance, and a conditioner with 18-MEA and SPDA can restore it.
research Synthetic studies toward the development of novel minoxidil analogs and conjugates with polyamines
New minoxidil compounds with better water solubility were made, but their full effects and safety need more research.
research Changes in European Legislation Make it Timely to Introduce a Transparent Market Surveillance System for Cosmetics
Europe needs a clear system to watch over cosmetics for safety and to make sure product claims are true.
research CLINICAL OBSERVATION: HYPONATREMIA ASSOCIATED WITH DIURETIC USE AND URINARY RETENTION IN AN OLDER MAN
Older adults using diuretics should manage water intake carefully to avoid low sodium levels.
research Pathologic Quiz Case: An Anterior Neck Mass in a 5-Month-Old Female Infant
The neck mass was a rare benign "wattle," surgically removed for diagnosis and appearance.
research Core-shell nanocarriers based on PEGylated hydrophobic hyperbranched polyesters
The new nanocarriers improve how well water-insoluble drugs dissolve and allow for controlled drug release.
research Studying the arsenic absorption by keratin protein extracted from human hair
Human hair can effectively absorb arsenic from water.
research The Effect of Oral Care Foams and a Spray on Salivary pH Changes after Exposure to Acidic Beverages in Young Adults
Rinsing with oral care products or tap water helps neutralize acidity from Coca-Cola, but both are equally effective.
research Development and evaluation of crystalline inclusion complex of finasteride using electrospraying as a novel approach
Created finasteride complex to increase water solubility and drug release.
research Effect of Rubbing Application on the Skin Permeation of Active Ingredients from Lotion and Cream
Rubbing skin increases absorption of water-soluble drugs from lotions and creams, but not oil-soluble drugs.
research Pyoderma Gangrenosum with Neurofibromatosis: Understanding a Possible Relationship and Identifying Risk with Immunosuppressants
The document suggests doctors should watch for bone marrow suppression and severe hair loss in patients treated with Azathioprine.

Canna indica is the best plant for water purification.
research Edible seeds from Cucurbitaceae family as potential functional foods: Immense promises, few concerns
Edible seeds from the Cucurbitaceae family like pumpkin and watermelon seeds are nutritious and may have health benefits, but eating too much can cause side effects.
research Adaptations in the structure and innervation of follicle‐sinus complexes to an aquatic environment as seen in the Florida manatee (Trichechus manatus latirostris)
Manatee whiskers are specially adapted for touch in water.
research Contribution of the Hair Follicular Pathway to Total Skin Permeation of Topically Applied and Exposed Chemicals
The hair follicle pathway significantly affects how easily water-loving chemicals pass through the skin.
research Analysis of the FGF gene family provides insights into aquatic adaptation in cetaceans
Whale genes show changes that help them live in water, like less hair and better flippers.
research Minoxidil–2-hydroxypropyl-β-cyclodextrin inclusion complexes: characterization and in vivo evaluation of an aqueous solution for hair growth in rats

research The spread of antimicrobial resistance in the aquatic environment from faecal pollution: a scoping review of a multifaceted issue
Faecal pollution significantly contributes to antimicrobial resistance in water, needing better wastewater management and research.
research Bio-macromolecules/modified-halloysite composite hydrogel used as multi-functional wound dressing
The new hydrogel is good for wound dressing because it absorbs water quickly, has high porosity, can release drugs, fights bacteria, and helps wounds heal with less scarring.
research The toughening transition in hair keratin
The observed "toughening" in keratin was actually due to water evaporation, not a real change in keratin.
research A histochemical examination of the epidermis of the southern elephant seal (Mirounga leonina L.) during the telogen stage of hair growth
