July 2026 in “arXiv (Cornell University)” In this study, researchers observed significant variations in the hierarchical structures of domestic cat hairs and whiskers, showing that local mechanical properties are influenced by the distribution and composition of internal granules and calcium enrichment along the hair's length.
July 2026 in “arXiv (Cornell University)” In this study, researchers found that the morphology, composition, and elemental enrichment of domestic cat hairs vary significantly along their length, contributing to a functional gradient that affects mechanical properties and challenging assumptions of uniformity in hair structure.

October 2020 in “Animal Bioscience” This study concluded that using a can containing beans as environmental enrichment for Rex rabbits improved their growth performance, carcass traits, meat quality, and hair follicle development compared to other enrichment materials or no enrichment.
July 2023 in “Research Square (Research Square)” In this study conducted on rabbits, conventional blood treated with 120% sodium citrate was observed to achieve the highest platelet recovery and enrichment coefficient, while altering sodium citrate concentrate affected levels of growth factors PDGF and TGF-β1 after plasma activation.
September 2025 in “Clinics and Practice” This study found that six-month supplementation with fish-derived collagen peptides, calcium, and vitamin D3 improved skin hydration and elasticity and reduced hair loss in menopausal women, with collagen playing a dominant role in enhancing skin elasticity.
