research Effect of disulfide bonds in human hair fibers on the melting behavior of their crystalline structure
Disulfide bonds affect the melting behavior of hair's crystalline structure, but hair retains some stability even after these bonds are broken.
research New insights into human hair: SAXS, SEM, TEM and EDX for Alopecia Areata investigations
Alopecia Areata causes significant structural and compositional changes in hair.
research Synthesis of a new amino acid derivative with long‐lasting hair shape control effects and elucidation of its mechanisms
A new amino acid derivative, ATS, improves hair texture and moisture, making it easier to straighten curly hair.
research Structure of intermediate filament assembly in hair deduced from hydration studies using small-angle neutron scattering
Hair's internal fibers are arranged in a pattern that doesn't let much water in, and treatments like oils and heat change how much water hair can absorb.
research Exploring a biological tissue from atomic to macroscopic scale using synchrotron radiation: example of hair.
Hair has unevenly distributed proteins and lipids, with lipids mainly in the cuticle and proteins in the cortex and medulla.
research Structures of three polycystic kidney disease-like domains fromClostridium histolyticumcollagenases ColG and ColH
The study concludes that certain domains in Clostridium histolyticum enzymes are structurally unique, bind calcium to become more stable, and play distinct roles in breaking down collagen, with potential applications in medicine and drug delivery.
research Estuarine bed-sediment-quality data collected in New Jersey and New York after Hurricane Sandy, 2013
Hurricane Sandy increased contamination in estuarine sediments in New Jersey and New York.
research ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF HAIR AND WOOL
Hair and wool have complex microscopic structures with microfibrils and varying cystine content.
research Molecular changes in skin predict predisposition to breast cancer
Skin changes can indicate a risk for breast cancer.
research Experimental Confirmation of a Distinctive Diffraction Pattern in Hair From Women With Breast Cancer
A specific hair diffraction pattern may indicate breast cancer if tested with the correct method.
research Reduction mechanism of L ‐cysteine on keratin fibers using microspectrophotometry and Raman spectroscopy
L-cysteine slows down the breaking of bonds in hair due to electrostatic interactions.
research Repair of damaged hair protein fiber by jointly using transglutaminase and keratin
Using an enzyme and keratin treatment can significantly repair and strengthen damaged hair.
research Activated carbon fiber derived from the seed hair fibers of Metaplexis japonica: Novel efficient adsorbent for methylene blue
Activated carbon fibers from Metaplexis japonica seed hair are highly effective for removing the dye methylene blue from water.
research Effect of Disulfide Bonds in Human Hair Fibers on the Melting Behavior of Their Crystalline Structure
Changing disulfide bonds in human hair affects its melting behavior and thermal stability.
research Effect of Freezing-Thawing on Clayey Soils Reinforced with Human Hair Fibers
Adding human hair to clayey soil makes it stronger, even after freeze-thaw cycles, and is eco-friendly and cheap.
research A discrete transition zone between cuticle and cortex layers of a human hair fibre: changes observed in the presence of breast cancer
Breast cancer alters specific molecular structures in hair, which revert after cancer removal.
research Keratin network modifications lead to the mechanical stiffening of the hair follicle fiber
Changes in keratin make hair follicles stiffer.
research How different is human hair? A critical appraisal of the reported differences in global hair fibre characteristics and properties towards defining a more relevant framework for hair type classification
Human hair varies widely and should be classified by curl type rather than race.
research An Innovative Experimental Petrographic Study of Concrete Produced by Animal Bones and Human Hair Fibers
Concrete made from animal bones and human hair is stronger and more environmentally friendly than traditional concrete.
research Disulfide Cross-Linked Network Structure of Intermediate Filament and Matrix in Hair and Wool Cortices
Hair and wool strength is affected by the number and type of bonds in their protein structures, with hair having more protein aggregates than wool.
research The structure of the “amorphous” matrix of keratins
Human hair keratin fibers have a detailed nano-scale structure that changes with different conditions.
research Growth of the Hair
Hair growth is cyclic and influenced mainly by local factors.
research Lead-revealed lipid organization in human hair
