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 Some Tensile Properties of Specialty Hair Fibers
Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.
research Prenatal Androgenization of Ewes as a Model of Hirsutism in Polycystic Ovary Syndrome
Prenatally androgenized ewes can model increased hair diameter in women with PCOS.
research Epidermal growth factor, but not cortisol, suppresses fibre growth in cultured follicles
