research Bioinspired Melanoidin–Polyphenol nanocomplex for hair protection and mechanical reinforcement with antioxidant activity
This study reported that a bioderived melanoidin/tannic acid nanocomplex forms a durable, antioxidant-active coating on hair fibers, providing enhanced UV protection and improving tensile resilience by suppressing oxidative stress and activating endogenous antioxidant pathways.
