research Tradescantia-Based Test Systems Can Be Used for the Evaluation of the Toxic Potential of Harmful Algal Blooms
Tradescantia plants can effectively test for the toxicity of harmful algae.
research The Hair Pigmentation Unit and Hair Graying
Hair color is due to active pigment cells in hair during growth.
research Recent advances in X-ray microanalysis in dermatology.
Trace elements like calcium, iron, and zinc are unevenly distributed in hair, while sulfur is even, and increased phosphorus and potassium levels are linked to skin reactions.
research Circulating testosterone and feather-gene expression of receptors and metabolic enzymes in relation to melanin-based colouration in the barn owl
Barn owls with smaller black spots have higher testosterone levels, which might be due to genetic effects on hormone regulation rather than hormone effects on coloration.
