Did you mean Zeta Potential?

GlossaryZeta Potential

measure of particle surface charge in a liquid

Zeta potential is a measure of the electrical charge on the surface of particles in a liquid, which affects how they interact with each other. For example, in hair care products, understanding zeta potential can help in formulating shampoos and conditioners that prevent hair from clumping together, ensuring smoother and more manageable hair.

community Minoxidil alternative with a week long half-life? Why isn’t it possible?

in Satire 2 years ago

This conversation discussed the potential for a hair loss treatment alternative to minoxidil, with many users debating the economic and health implications of such an option. Some suggested that finasteride could be used as an alternative, while others argued that this would ultimately not benefit pharmaceutical companies due to their reliance on planned obsolescence.
