This study explored using keratin extracted from human hair waste to create biodegradable bioplastic films, revealing promising potential for applications in packaging and disposable items due to their uniform surface morphology and ability to degrade with keratinophilic fungi.

This study found that exposure to phytoestrogens, bisphenol A, parabens, and phthalates was associated with developing idiopathic premature thelarche in girls.

This review re-examines hair blowouts as a material science process, where water acts as a plasticizer altering keratin's glass-transition temperature, allowing for temporary hair shaping through a moisture-induced matrix state change under heat and tension.

This study found that a keratin film made from human hair supports enhanced cell proliferation and viability compared to collagen I, suggesting potential for cell culture applications.

This study developed a sensor that effectively measures Tl+ cation in solutions with a wide dynamic range and low detection limit, responding linearly within the concentration range 1.0 × 10−8 to 1.0 × 10−1M.

This study found that chemically modifying human hair through esterification or disulfide reduction and alkylation affects the hair's viscoelastic properties, including stability, integrity, and response to moisture.

This article describes the immunofluorescence tomography method to achieve high-resolution 3-D reconstruction of epithelial tissues and reports no clinical results.

This case report indicates that contact dermatitis on the face can result from using a bleaching ointment containing ammonium bisulfite during hair-dyeing.

This article reviews the risks of metal exposure from cosmetic products and emphasizes the need for stricter regulation and consumer awareness, without presenting new data or results.

This study found that high exposure to plastics was associated with increased chances of irregular menstrual cycles and symptoms similar to polycystic ovary syndrome in adolescent girls.

This review discusses various substances that can impact male fertility and stresses that products should be confirmed 'sperm-safe' through rigorous testing, not assumptions; it reports no new study results.

This pilot study found that hair metabolome analysis may help differentiate pregnancy complications from healthy pregnancies by revealing significant metabolite differences between trimesters.

This review surveys the chemical composition and various uses of jojoba oil in medicine and industry but presents no new clinical results.

This study found that using drug microplates in transdermal finasteride films enhances aqueous solubility and skin permeation compared to films with pure finasteride.

This review discusses the potential of microneedle arrays for drug delivery and in the cosmetic market, but reports no new clinical results; factors for commercial therapeutic use are explored.

Pollution exposure speeds up hair damage.

This review explains the mechanical composition and molecular interactions that determine hair's mechanical properties, without providing any new experimental findings.

This report describes a study of estuarine bed-sediment quality in New Jersey and New York post-Hurricane Sandy, focusing on contamination extent and potential long-term impacts, with no new findings included.

This research article evaluates the protein content of yeast grown on wood hydrolyzate, without providing new results or clinical findings.

This study found that African and Caucasian hair contain the most lipids, and depletion of these lipids leads to less water retention and increased water desorption, with Caucasian hair showing improved breaking tenacity after lipid extraction.

This study found that the imidacloprid/flumethrin collar (Seresto®) is chemically compatible with major spot-on formulations and dermally and systemically safe for adult dogs and cats when used together.
