research Comparison of Quality Performance of Human Hair Types with Herbal Oils by Analysis Techniques
Grape seed oil improved hair quality the most, followed by rosehip and safflower seed oils, and reduced damage from shampoo.
research Female Pattern Hair Loss: An Update
Female pattern hair loss has multiple causes and treatments, with new therapies showing promise.
research Morphological Characteristics and Notes of the Skin in Preclinical Toxicity Assessment
Skin structure complexity and variability are crucial for assessing skin toxicity in safety tests.
research Managing Patterned Hair Loss – A Hair Raising Task!
Hair loss can be managed with treatments like minoxidil, finasteride, and others, but there are still gaps in effectiveness and off-label usage is increasing.
research A Mouse Model for the Basal Transcription and DNA Repair Syndrome Trichothiodystrophy
Researchers created a mouse with the same mutation as humans with trichothiodystrophy, showing similar symptoms and confirming the condition is due to defects in DNA repair and gene activity.
research Human Hair Keratin Protein, Hair Fibers and Hydroxyapatite (HA) Composite Scaffold for Bone Tissue Regeneration
research Analysis of Structural Change in Keratin Fibers Resulting from Chemical Treatments Using Raman Spectroscopy
Chemical hair straightening changes hair proteins and mostly fixes broken bonds.
research Fundamental Studies on the Interaction Between Moisture and Textiles. Part X. Moisture Sorption Properties of Wool and Hair Fibers
