research Preparation of Water Soluble Wool Keratin and Its Application for Human Hair

8 citations , January 2009 in “Transactions of the Materials Research Society of Japan”

This study found that CMAD wool keratin may protect human hair from damage during repeated bleaching and permanent waving treatments.

research Structure and Mechanical Properties of Human Trichocyte Keratin Intermediate Filament Protein

51 citations , September 2012 in “Biomacromolecules”

This study found that disulfide bonds in keratin increase its strength and toughness, with some loss of α-helical structure under load, highlighting their role in trichocyte α-keratin's mechanical properties.

research A detailed mapping of the readily accessible disulphide bonds in the cortex of wool fibres

6 citations , February 2021 in “Proteins”

This study provides insight into the specific disulfide bond interactions between keratins and keratin associated proteins, suggesting non-random cysteine interactions crucial for stabilizing hair fiber structure.
