research Measuring Changes in Chemistry, Composition, and Molecular Structure Within Hair Fibers by Infrared and Raman Spectroscopic Imaging
Infrared and Raman imaging can non-destructively analyze hair structure and help diagnose hair conditions.
research X-Ray Studies of the Structure of Hair, Wool, and Related Fibers. II. - The Molecular Structure and Elastic Properties of Hair Keratin
Stretched hair has a similar structure to natural silk, showing hair's elasticity involves reversible changes within its molecules.
research The Genomic Variation In Textured Hair: Implications In Developing A Holistic Hair Care Routine
Afro-textured hair needs specialized care due to its unique genetic and structural properties.
research The Structure of People's Hair
Hair's molecular structure is mostly consistent, but genetic differences affect lipid types, which could help diagnose diseases.
research Changes in the Molecular Structure of Hair in Insulin-Dependent Diabetes
Insulin-dependent diabetes alters hair's molecular structure, making it useful for studying diabetes effects.

5 / 678 resultscommunity Which retinoid for better min absorption?
User is on vacation in Greece and wants to buy tretinoin or isotretinoin to improve Minoxidil absorption. They are considering isotretinoin since it is available over-the-counter in Greece but requires a prescription back home.
community Intriguing Molecular Structures and Questions (DHT, Progesterone, Fin, etc)
The conversation discusses the molecular structures of compounds that reduce DHT levels, including finasteride and Ashwagandha. It explores the potential of using Ashwagandha topically as a 5a reductase inhibitor.
community People call companies stupid for making very high concentration Topical Fin solutions but I think they overlook the fact that the actual absorption rate of finasteride varies greatly
The conversation discusses how the absorption rate of topical finasteride varies and is not equivalent to its oral form, with only a small percentage reaching the scalp. It also mentions that minoxidil in high concentrations is used topically because only a small amount is absorbed.
community What About Phytosterol Alternatives - Rice Bran Oil - Natural DHT Blockers
The conversation discusses natural DHT blockers like rice bran oil, which may reduce 5α-reductase activity similarly to Minoxidil and Dutasteride. One user argues that finasteride is more reliable and effective than natural alternatives.
