Abstract Traditional foods (often referred to as “country foods”) play a critical role in Indigenous culture, nutrition, food sovereignty and food security. Policies that prioritize store‐bought food are often viewed as undermining these foods. We provide evidence that two recent policy reforms that subsidize store‐bought food in the Northwest ...

Establishment and validation of a hair fall atlas for Chinese men based on trichoscopy

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
A new hair fall atlas with 7 scales is established and validated and ready to publish as a new methodology. We observed good consistency between the dermatologists' grading (PCC >0.8), and a strong correlation shown between clinical scores and hair fall attributes based on image analysis (|p| > 0.8).

Anticipating cosmetic emulsion stability using a novel multi‐analytical approach

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
A novel combination of granulometry, turbidimetry and rheology enables early detection of cosmetic emulsion instability—reducing assessment time from 30 to 8 days. This rapid method distinguishes stable from unstable emulsions under identical conditions, offering a powerful tool for formulation screening and industrial quality control.

Friction and vibration generated during sliding over bare skin correlate with perceived smoothness and moistness

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, EarlyView.
A tactile sensor with a probe replicating a fingerprint quantified skin texture by measuring vibration and friction. Regression analysis linked smoothness and moistness perceptions with high‐frequency vibration amplitude and friction. These findings support the objective assessment of skin texture, enhancing product evaluation consistency and bridging ...
