research Metabolites From Macroalgae and Its Applications in the Cosmetic Industry: A Circular Economy Approach
Marine macroalgae were identified as a promising source of ingredients for the cosmetic industry due to their diverse and rich nutritional and chemical composition, including proteins, carbohydrates, vitamins, and secondary metabolites like phenolic compounds and terpenoids. The cosmetic industry, driven by consumer demand for natural products, could benefit from the underexploited potential of macroalgae, not only as thickening and gelling agents but also as sources of new active ingredients. The review highlighted the importance of a circular economy approach, suggesting that macroalgae could be sourced from industrial waste to recover valuable active molecules, thus promoting sustainability in resource use.

research Chronological Aging of Human Hair Keratin Fibers
The study examined very long human hair (over 2.4 m) to understand the natural ageing process of hair keratin fibers using various evaluation methods. It focused on hair that had not been exposed to chemical treatments like bleaching or dyeing. The findings showed that ageing begins with the abrasion of the cuticle while the cortex remains intact up to about 1 m from the root, maintaining shine, hydrophobicity, and friction characteristics. Beyond this point, significant cuticle damage occurs, correlating with a decline in ceramides, 18-Methyl Eicosanoic Acid (18-MEA), and keratin-associated proteins, leading to a decrease in mechanical and optical properties. This research provided a detailed 'damage scale' of hair ageing, which could aid in developing targeted hair care products.
