Metaplexis japonica seed hair fiber: a member of natural hollow fibers and its characterization
Textile research journal, 2019Metaplexis japonica seed hair fibers (Mj-fiber), harvested from the seed pods of Metaplexis japonica (Apocynaceae: Asclepiadoideae) originating in China, Japan and Korea, have features ensuring its potential application in the textile and other ...

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2004
Although adhesion failure in hair fibers can occur inside cells, it occurs more frequently in the cell membrane complex (CMC), often involving the rupture of interlayer bonds. Therefore, a model of the CMC presented, based on prior research, in which we propose interconnecting bonds between the layers to assist interpretation of hair‐fracturing ...

Investigating the relationship between the hair fiber proteome and hair quality
International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 2004Many hair characteristics (e.g. color and curl) are genetically determined. Here, we investigated whether hair quality is also genetically controlled and related to differences in hair composition. Female, Caucasian subjects (n = 292) were recruited into this study and segmented by self‐perceived hair quality and by permanent colorant usage.

Wetting behavior of human hair fibers
Journal of Applied Polymer Science, 1978AbstractThe wetting behavior of human hair in water has been investigated using a technique based on the Wilhelmy balance principle. The experimental technique makes it possible to study the relaxation effects occurring at the solid–liquid–air interface.

Analysis of DNA in hair fibers.
Journal of cosmetic science, 2003The extraction and identification of deoxyribonucleic acid (DNA) from human hair shafts is described, along with the effects of hair treatments on levels of DNA and suggestions of DNA location within the shaft. DNA was present at low levels in the hair shaft, and was identified using polymerase chain reaction amplification of the human leukocyte ...

A model of the hair cell-primary fiber complex
The Journal of the Acoustical Society of America, 1982The proposed model consists of a chain of three energy reservoirs through which energy from an infinite supply is fed to a modulator which in turn drives a firing mechanism. The modulator consists of a variable permeability p that depends on instantaneous basilar displacement a through: p = (a−A0)2 for a≳A0, and p = 0 for a?A0, where A0 is a constant ...

Is polar bear hair fiber optic?
Applied Optics, 1998New direct measurement of high optical attenuation rates in polar bear hairs--2-8 dB/mm in the visible--and reanalysis of the data of Tributsch et al. [Sol. Energy Mater. 21, 219 (1990)] seem to rule out the UV waveguiding proposed by Grojean et al. [Appl. Opt. 19, 339 (1980)].
