Title: UV radiation: aggressive agent to the hair--AFM, a new methodology of evaluation. Author: Monteiro VF, Pinheiro AS, Leite ER, Agnelli JA, Pereira-Da-Silva MA, Longo E. Journal: J Cosmet Sci; 2003; 54(3):271-81. PubMed ID: 12858226. Abstract: A new method for morphological hair analysis at high resolution and under ambient conditions is presented in this paper. The AFM has been used in these experiments to analyze morphological changes in hair roughness and thickness after UV radiation. Through the powerful analytical AFM tools, changes in hair morphology can be proven. A new quantitative methodology to evaluate hair structure is presented in this paper.[Abstract] [Full Text] [Related] [New Search]
