Black Plastic Identification for Sorting and Recycling With Deep‐UV Raman Spectroscopy

open access: yesJournal of Raman Spectroscopy, EarlyView.
We present a deep ultraviolet (DUV) Raman spectrometer for sorting black plastics in recycling. The common identification modality of hyperspectral NIR struggles with black plastics due to strong absorption by the black pigment. By using a 248.6‐nm NeCu laser, we enable stand‐off detection over a conveyor belt while avoiding fluorescence interference ...

Coacervate Formation Behavior and Lubrication Properties of a Hair Shampoo Formulated With Amino Acid Surfactants and Cationized Cellulose

open access: yesJournal of Surfactants and Detergents, EarlyView.
Coacervate formation behavior of sodium lauroyl methylaminopropionate in a hair shampoo formulation. ABSTRACT Coacervates are ion complexes that enhance the lubrication of hair surfaces during hair washing. In this study, hair shampoos containing typical amino acid surfactants, including sodium lauroyl methylaminopropionate, were prepared to ...

Considerations and Tips for Promoting Skin Barrier Maintenance and Quality of Life in Patients With Diabetes Mellitus: An Expert Consensus

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Skin changes such as xerosis and pruritus are common complications among diabetes patients and may lead to serious adverse events such as diabetic foot syndrome and amputations. Evidence suggests that daily application of optimal skincare, including gentle cleansers and moisturizers, may help improve skin barrier function, preventing ...

‘‘Anti-lice Protector Shampoo’’: Clinical Study Shows Lack of Efficacy of Coconut Oil Derivatives in the Elimination of Head Louse Infestation

open access: yesTürkiye Parazitoloji Dergisi, 2020
Objective:Coconut oil and its derivatives are widely thought to kill head lice by occlusion and asphyxiation. There is no evidence in support of coconut derivative-based products sold to treat pediculosis. This study was designed to test one such product.

Necrotising Infundibular Crystalline Folliculitis: A Rare Case With a Microscopic Abundance of Yeasts

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 66‐year‐old man presented with a 5‐year history of recurrent pruritic, waxy folliculocentric papules on his trunk which worsened during winter and minimally responded to selenium sulphide shampoo and topical corticosteroids. Skin biopsy demonstrated a dilated follicular infundibulum containing abundant yeasts and amorphous material with ...

Multiscale analysis of oxidative damage in hair fibers: From AFM nanomechanics to AI‐based degradation modeling

open access: yesVIEW, EarlyView.
We investigated oxidative damage in human hair fibers using SEM and AFM‐based nanomechanical mapping, revealing progressive cuticle degradation and localized mechanical softening. cGAN was employed to model time‐dependent degradation, offering a predictive framework for assessing chemical damage in soft biomaterials.
