This study found that quercetin-loaded solid lipid nanoparticles demonstrated positive protective effects on human hair against UV-B light, as they controlled microscopic surface roughness, reduced chemical changes, and minimized protein loss in vitro compared to other treatments.

This study found that while parabens in haircare products were within legal limits, all samples contained dibutyl phthalate, raising concerns about chronic exposure to endocrine disruptors.

This study found that 1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline derivatives, particularly N-methyl-7-amino-1,2,3,4-tetrahydroquinoline, may be excellent blue dye candidates for human hair, offering superior color purity, stability, and fastness compared to 2,3-dihydroindoles.

This study used an autoradiographic technique to observe that germicides in surfactants are primarily deposited on the stratum corneum of guinea-pig and human skin.

The study found that Sh-Polypeptide 9, a biomimetic peptide, enhances endothelial tubulogenesis and VEGF production more effectively than minoxidil, particularly at low concentrations, suggesting potential for hair follicle vascularization.

This study demonstrated that intradermal treatment with a medical device using Polynucleotides High Purification Technology (PN HPT) significantly improved skin surface, firmness, pigmentation, and radiance in 30 Asian subjects, with benefits lasting up to six months and no adverse events reported.

This study evaluated a herbal anti-dandruff hair wash powder, TRICHONEMTM, composed of eighteen herbal ingredients, reporting effective in vitro anti-dandruff activity and high user satisfaction in a 4-week pilot trial involving 50 women, without causing irritation.

This study found that the hydrophilic PTK-UR foam with EG7 repeats significantly improved wound healing in porcine skin wounds compared to other scaffolds, suggesting potential for synthetic biomaterial applications.

This study found that cationic vesicles enhanced minoxidil skin retention and in vivo hair growth efficacy compared to other formulation types due to electrostatic interactions with the skin.
