Cuticles of Erupted Teeth [PDF]

open access: yesNature, 1954
IT is generally agreed that Nasmyth's membrane, which is present on the enamel surface of recently erupted teeth, is composed of an outer cellular and an inner structureless layer, and that shortly after eruption the cells are lost due to degeneration and masticatory trauma.

STUDIES ON ARTHROPOD CUTICLE. II. ELECTRON MICROSCOPE STUDIES OF EXTRACTED CUTICLE,,

open access: yesThe Biological Bulletin, 1948
1. Chitin purifications alter the structure of cuticular membranes of insects more or less extensively.2. Our data agree with the x-ray diffraction studies of Fraenkel and Rudall in showing:(a) The cuticle cannot be viewed as a rigid chitin framework iii the interstices of which other components are deposited.(b) Protein extraction methods have no ...

Plant-nematode interactions: environmental signals detected by the nematode’s chemosensory organs control changes in the surface cuticle and behaviour

open access: yesParasite, 2008
Plant parasitic nematodes have developed the capacity to sense and respond to chemical signals of host origin and the ability to orientate towards plant roots enhances the nematode’s chance of survival.

Dynamically-expressed prion-like proteins form a cuticle in the pharynx of Caenorhabditis elegans

open access: yesBiology Open, 2014
In molting animals, a cuticular extracellular matrix forms the first barrier to infection and other environmental insults. In the nematode Caenorhabditis elegans there are two types of cuticle: a well-studied collagenous cuticle lines the body, and a ...

Research on Hair Bleach that Causes Less Hair Damage and Smells Less Pungent than Ammonium Hydroxide

open access: yesCosmetics, 2018
Problems associated with bleaching hair include damage to the hair and the pungent smell of ammonium hydroxide. Many consumers dislike the stiffness and smell of bleached hair. In this study, we investigated the suppression of both the damage and pungent

Revisiting plant cuticle biophysics

open access: yesNew Phytologist
SummaryThe plant cuticle is located at the interface of the plant with the environment, thus acting as a protective barrier against biotic and abiotic external stress factors, and regulating water loss. Additionally, it modulates mechanical stresses derived from internal tissues and also from the environment. Recent advances in the understanding of the
