EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON CONCRETE REINFORCED With HUMAN AND HORSE HAIR FIBERS [PDF]

Journal of Al-Azhar University Engineering Sector, 2020
Concrete is good in compression but week in tension that is, concrete is a brittle material. So, in order to improve the tensile properties of concrete, short fibers are used. Human and horse hairs consider a bio material and have a good strong in tension; hence it can be used as a fiber reinforcement material.

Enhancing Magnetic Hyperthermia at the Cell Membrane by Anchoring 92R‐Functionalized Magnetic Nanoparticles to Low‐Endocytic CCR9 Surface Receptors

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We present a strategy to enhance magnetic hyperthermia therapy by modulating nanoparticle–cell interactions. Antibody‐functionalized magnetic nanoparticles targeting the low‐internalizing CCR9 receptor enable spatially controlled membrane anchoring, reducing aggregation and maximizing heat generation under alternating magnetic fields.

Effective Penetration of the Oxidized Keratin‐Rebonding Materials Into Hair Shafts Based on Charge Conversion

Advanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We have developed a smart hair‐repair ingredient based on β‐carboxylic acid amide that undergoes negative‐to‐positive charge conversion under mildly acidic conditions. The initial negative charge facilitates deep penetration into the hair fiber, while the subsequent positive charge enables re‐bonding with sulfonate groups in damaged hair keratin.

Enzymatic Degradation of Keratin Films and Keratin Fibers Prepared from Human Hair

Biological and Pharmaceutical Bulletin, 2008
Protease degradation of matrix (Ma) protein and microfibril (Mf) protein, which are the major components of human hair, were investigated. Ma or Mf protein was partially extracted from human hair and four types of keratins were prepared: Ma film, Mf film, Ma-rich fiber, and Mf-rich fiber.

Fine-grained nociceptive maps in primary somatosensory cortex [PDF]

, 2012
Topographic maps of the receptive surface are a fundamental feature of neural organization in many sensory systems. While touch is finely mapped in the cerebral cortex, it remains controversial how precise any cortical nociceptive map may be.
