Magnetic coiffure: Engineering of human hair surfaces with polyelectrolyte-stabilised magnetite nanoparticles

open access: yesChemical Engineering Journal Advances, 2022
Here we report a spontaneous electrostatic coating of human hair with aqueous Fe3O4 colloids capable to tailor magnetic properties to hair, orienting and even moving them under the influence of the external magnetic field.

The Reaction of Oxidative Hair Dyes in Cuticle Layers

open access: yesJournal of Society of Cosmetic Chemists of Japan, 2008
ヒト毛髪のキューティクル層における酸化染毛剤 (ヘアカラー) の染毛機構について研究した。一般に酸化染毛においては, 酸化染料モノマーが毛髪内部のコルテックスへ浸透し, 酸化重合して発色するとされている。精密に作製した染色毛の横断面切片を観察した結果, 酸化染料はコルテックスだけでなくキューティクル層にも染着していることを確認した。キューティクル層には水道水などに由来するさまざまな外因性の金属が蓄積するが, 遷移金属が多いと染色性は増加する一方で, 脱色性は低下した。キューティクル層において過酸化水素による酸化反応が活発になり, 内部浸透が不利になった結果と考えられた。また, 透過型電子顕微鏡によりcuticular CMC (cell membrane complex) のβ ...

Morphological properties of hair and their variation when subjected to oxidation via chemical bleaching

open access: yesFields, 2020
Four key morphological properties of hair were investigated in order to understand their variation in response to oxidation of the strand via bleaching. These were hair diameter, cuticle damage, porosity and fluorescence.

High post-anthesis temperature effects on 3 bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) grain 4 transcriptome during early grain-filling [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Background: High post-anthesis (p.a) temperatures reduce mature grain weights in wheat and other cereals. However, the causes of this reduction are not entirely known.

KLK7 overexpression promotes an aggressive phenotype and facilitates peritoneal dissemination in colorectal cancer cells

open access: yesFEBS Open Bio, EarlyView.
KLK7, a tissue kallikrein‐related peptidase, is elevated in advanced colorectal cancer and associated with shorter survival. High KLK7 levels in ascites correlate with peritoneal metastasis. In mice, KLK7 overexpression increases metastasis. In vitro, KLK7 enhances cancer cell proliferation, migration, adhesion, and spheroid formation, driving ...

Effect of testing conditions on the tensile properties of a single human hair and the in-situ observation of cuticles during the tensile deformation by an optical microscope

open access: yesNihon Kikai Gakkai ronbunshu, 2020
The purpose of this study is to investigate the effect of testing conditions, i.e., the strain rate and the gauge length, on the tensile properties of a single human hair.

An ex vivo comparative study of the tensile strengthening efficacy of protein-derived actives on heavily bleached hair [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
The damaging effects of oxidative bleaching are most evident in hair which has been lightened from dark shades to platinum blonde. Whilst conventional conditioning agents effectively manage cuticular damage, the reversal of cortical weakening of hair ...

Effects of CO2-induced pH reduction on the exoskeleton structure and biophotonic properties of the shrimp Lysmata californica. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
The anticipated effects of CO2-induced ocean acidification on marine calcifiers are generally negative, and include dissolution of calcified elements and reduced calcification rates.
