Surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy is capable of precise differentiation between re-dyed hair samples

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2023
Scalp hairs are readily present at most crime scenes because an average person sheds around 100 hairs a day. Forensic experts analyze hair found at crime scenes to identify suspects involved in a crime.

Pigment Intensity in Dogs is Associated with a Copy Number Variant Upstream of KITLG. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Dogs exhibit a wide variety of coat color types, and many genes have been identified that control pigment production, appearance, and distribution. Some breeds, such as the Nova Scotia Duck Tolling Retriever (NSDTR), exhibit variation in pheomelanin ...

Tyrosinase Depletion Prevents the Maturation of Melanosomes in the Mouse Hair Follicle. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
The mechanisms that lead to variation in human skin and hair color are not fully understood. To better understand the molecular control of skin and hair color variation, we modulated the expression of Tyrosinase (Tyr), which controls the rate-limiting ...

Cyclosporine A-induced Hair Repigmentation in a Patient with Dermatitis: A Case Report

open access: yesOman Medical Journal, 2023
Cyclosporine A is an immunosuppressant drug known to cause several side effects. One of the most common side effects is hypertrichosis, with a rare presentation of hair repigmentation rarely presenting.

Quantum Hair on Black Holes [PDF]

open access: yes, 1992
A black hole may carry quantum numbers that are {\it not} associated with massless gauge fields, contrary to the spirit of the ``no-hair'' theorems. We describe in detail two different types of black hole hair that decay exponentially at long range.

Hair Coloring – Hair Dyeing

open access: yesRGUHS Journal of Medical Sciences, 2018
History of the coloring of the gray hairs can be traced back to Sumerians and Pharaohs 2000 BC. Women in the past used hair colors to hide their gray hairs. Today men are also applying hair color to hide their gray hairs and younger people color their hair as a fashion. The discovery of paraphenylenediamine and better understanding of chemistry of hair

Model-based prediction of human hair color using DNA variants [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
Predicting complex human phenotypes from genotypes is the central concept of widely advocated personalized medicine, but so far has rarely led to high accuracies limiting practical applications.

A genome-wide association study identifies novel alleles associated with hair color and skin pigmentation.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2008
We conducted a multi-stage genome-wide association study of natural hair color in more than 10,000 men and women of European ancestry from the United States and Australia. An initial analysis of 528,173 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) genotyped on

Genome-wide SNP typing of ancient DNA: Determination of hair and eye color of Bronze Age humans from their skeletal remains. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2020
Objective A genome-wide high-throughput single nucleotide polymorphism (SNP) typing method was tested with respect of the applicability to ancient and degraded DNA. The results were compared to mini-sequencing data achieved through single base extension (
