Reinventing henna: Enzyme‐catalysed colour release from stabilized Lawsonia inermis L. extracts

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The instability and reduced dyeing performance of a cosmetic formulation containing 2‐hydroxy‐1,4‐naphthoquinone (lawsone), derived from Lawsonia inermis L., is demonstrated in comparison to a novel two‐component system. This system comprises one formulation with naturally occurring lawsone precursors and a second containing a specific hydrolase ...

Selective BET bromodomain inhibition as an antifungal therapeutic strategy

Nature Communications, 2017
BET proteins bind chromatin through their bromodomains (BDs) to regulate transcription and chromatin remodelling. Here, the authors show that the BET protein Bdf1 is essential for the fungal pathogenCandida albicans, and report compounds that inhibit the

Large scale foreign land acquisitions: what interactions, opportunities and risks for different local farming systems? A case-study in Madagascar [PDF]

, 2012
Important foreign land acquisitions in developing countries can lead to structural transformation in existing farming systems. But does the development of mega-farms create the same opportunities and risks for the diversity of local rural households ...

Development of the SkinCARE Questionnaire: Measuring the impact of skin issues on psychological wellbeing in healthy populations

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
The SkinCARE questionnaire is a validated tool for assessing the impact of skin condition on psychological wellbeing. The present data also suggest greater skin wellbeing is linked to lower levels of perceived stress and good sleep health. Abstract Background In recent years, the psychological dimension of skin health has attracted increasing research ...

Discovery of the magnetic field of the B1/B2V star \sigma Lupi [PDF]

, 2011
In our search for new magnetic massive stars we use the strongest indirect indicator of a magnetic field in B stars, which is periodic variability of UV stellar wind lines occurring in a velocity range symmetric around zero.

Scale‐robust fibre orientation analysis of hair using two‐dimensional Fourier transform

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
We present a simple and robust method to quantify hair fibre orientation using 2D‐DFT. It works with standard images and extracts directional features at multiple scales. This enables objective evaluation of cosmetic treatments and product effects. Abstract Objective To address the current lack of standardized tools for evaluating hair appearance in ...
