October 2017 in “Nutrients” This study observed that the ethyl acetate extract of Equisetum debile showed high activity against 5α-reductase and lipid peroxidation with no cytotoxicity on dermal papilla cells.
November 2023 in “ACS Applied Polymer Materials” In this study, the researchers developed a new method using H2O2/TiO2/UV for extracting human hair keratins rapidly, yielding higher protein and enabling the production of keratin films with better hemostatic performance and varied wound-healing properties compared to films from traditionally extracted keratin.
This study suggests that ethyl acetate extract of Equisetum debile may be effective for functional food and nutraceutical use due to its strong 5α-reductase, IL-6 inhibition, and lipid peroxidation activities without cytotoxic effects.
November 2025 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” This study examined how different hair dye processes affect hair structure at a molecular level, finding that oxidative dyes increase keratin porosity more than non-oxidative dyes, and highlighted emerging technology aimed at reducing hair damage while preserving color quality.
November 2025 in “Zenodo (CERN European Organization for Nuclear Research)” In this study, researchers investigated how different hair dye processes affect hair structure, finding that oxidative dyes disrupt hair more than semi-permanent dyes, and emerging technologies could help maintain hair health while achieving desired color.
