research Luxury Hair Fibers for Fashion Industry
The industry should promote pure luxury hair fibers, improve technology, and diversify products to support growers and ensure sustainable use.
research Evaluating the antioxidant effects of human hair protein extracts
Human hair protein extracts can protect skin cells from oxidative stress.
research The Medicolegal Examination of Hairs
Hair analysis can offer clues about a person, but individual differences limit making precise identifications.
research Expression analysis of the type I keratin protein keratin 33A in goat coat hair
Keratin 33A is a key protein in goat winter coats, especially in high-producing breeds.
research Stiffness of Human Hair Correlates with the Fractions of Cortical Cell Types
Hair stiffness is higher when it has more para-like cortical cells.
research Tracing selection signatures in the pig genome gives evidence for selective pressures on a unique curly hair phenotype in Mangalitza
Selective breeding caused the unique curly hair in Mangalitza pigs.
research In vitro methodology, hormonal and nutritional effects and fibre production in isolated ovine and caprine anagen hair follicles
Angora goat hair grows faster and produces more protein than cashmere goat hair, and certain hormones and nutrients positively affect hair growth and protein synthesis.
research Microstructure of Defective Mink Guard Hair
Defective mink guard hairs have split tips and missing cuticle cells, causing a metallic sheen.
research Clinical and laboratory assessment of mineral deficiencies in grazing sheep and goats at Sana’a Governorate, Yemen
Many sheep and goats in Sana’a, Yemen, lack essential minerals and need supplements for better health.
