The Eocene Pipestone Springs Main Pocket (Renova Formation, Jefferson County, Montana, United States of America) is a locality renowned for its diverse Chadronian (late Eocene; ∼38–33.9 million years ago) mammalian fauna and abundant coprolites. Two distinct coprolite size classes were previously identified in the trace fossil assemblage from which...

The aim of this study was to determine whether X-ray fluorescence spectrometry (XRF) could be used to detect changes in hair zinc concentration in response to a modest daily increase in zinc from the consumption of zinc biofortified wheat flour. This study was conducted as part of an effectiveness trial (BiZiFED2) exploring the potential for zinc b...

Alcohol (Fayetteville, N.Y.)
Ethyl glucuronide (EtG) in hair is a direct biomarker proven to be useful for the detection of chronic excessive alcohol use. This study investigated the association of self-reported alcohol consumption with traditional biomarkers: GGT, AST, ALT, CDT, and MCV in blood and a direct biomarker, hair EtG, in a total of 122 patients with alcohol depende...

Background Autophagy was reported to play a crucial role in maintaining general and skin health. Methods The study used a synthesized autophagy inducer (AI) (Aquatide™ cospharm Inc.; Daejeon, Korea), for evaluating the effects of autophagy on skin and hair in dogs. Twenty-two dogs with poor skin and hair which were diagnosed with canine atopic derm...

Autophagy
Alopecia areata (AA) involves an aberrant immune attack on the hair follicle (HF), which leads to hair loss. Previous genetic data from our lab pointed to a connection between macroautophagy/autophagy and AA pathogenesis, and GWAS identified STX17, CLEC16A and BCL2L11/BIM as risk factors for AA. Additionally, AA patients have copy number deletions ...

Patients with congenital adrenal hyperplasia (CAH) in developing countries have limited access to appropriate laboratory facilities for diagnosis and follow-up. The aim of this study is to evaluate steroid measurement in hair as a diagnostic tool to identify and monitor CAH in these patients. A method was developed to measure steroids in hair, the ...

Knowledge of the thermal and dielectric properties of wolfberries is essential for understanding the heat transfer and the interaction between the electromagnetic field (10-3000 MHz) and the sample during radio frequency (RF) and microwave (MW) drying. The thermal and dielectric properties of wolfberries were determined as influenced by moisture co...

Forensic analysis of hair is important as hair is one of the most commonly examined forms of trace evidence found at crime scenes. A growing body of evidence suggests that surface-enhanced Raman spectroscopy (SERS), a label-free and non-destructive analytical technique, can be used to detect and identify artificial colorants present on hair. Howeve...
