research A discourse on human hair fibers and reflections on the conservation of drug molecules
Hair analysis for drugs needs a better understanding of how drugs enter hair, considering factors like hair structure and pigmentation.
research Effect of Temperature and Humidity on Mechanical Properties of Rabbit Hair Fibers
Higher temperatures improve rabbit hair strength up to 50°C, but moisture weakens it.
research Effect of Nutritional Restriction on the Hair Follicles Development and Skin Transcriptome of Chinese Merino Sheep
Poor maternal nutrition can lead to fewer wool follicles in Chinese Merino sheep.
research Hormonal changes in menopause: do they contribute to a ‘midlife hair crisis’ in women?
Menopause-related hormonal changes affect hair but are not the only cause of hair changes in middle-aged women.
research Effects of different dietary protein levels and DL‐methionine supplementation on hair growth and pelt quality in mink (Neovision vision)
Higher protein diets with DL-methionine improve mink hair growth and fur quality.
