Researchers developed a method to identify and measure different animal hair fibers in textiles, successfully distinguishing materials like cashmere from cheaper fibers.

KAP7.1 and KAP8.2 genes are crucial for cashmere quality in goats.

Hair fibers have fractal patterns with properties related to the golden mean, which may affect their functionality.

Wool traits in sheep are controlled by many genes and environmental factors.

Short photoperiods improve cashmere growth and quality in goats by changing hormone levels and gene expression.

Animal hair fibers like wool and mohair are strong when dry, but vicuna fibers are very brittle.

Metallothionein likely helps in cell growth and development in wool follicles of fetal sheep.

Vicuña wool's quality is due to a high density of fine secondary hair follicles, and their skin glands may be used for communication.

Researchers developed a new method to clearly see and label hair proteins with minimal errors using advanced freezing and microscopy techniques.

A new method using imidazole-based liquids efficiently extracts keratin from yak hair.

Adding 0.2% taurine to Angora rabbits' diet improves wool production and overall health.
