January 2023 in “BioMed Research International” The researchers reported that a 5% Beta vulgaris L. extract nanogel showed better antialopecic activity in testosterone-induced alopecia in mice compared to a 2.5% concentration.
The study focused on the identification and cultivation of somatic cells from feather follicles as a source for a biological resource bank for wild bird species. The research aimed to establish a method for preserving genetic material from these species, which could be crucial for conservation efforts. By successfully isolating and cultivating these cells, the study provided a potential tool for maintaining biodiversity and supporting the conservation of avian species. This approach offered a novel way to create a repository of genetic resources that could be used for future research and conservation initiatives.
