Cheriyedath, MSc Keratosis pilaris is a very common skin condition in which keratin forms hard plugs in the hair follicles. It is an inherited disorder running in families with a 1 in 2 chance of each child inheriting it from an affected parent. Keratosis pilaris is not infectious. Keratin is a natural protein present in the outer portion of the skin. There are many different types of keratin such as A-keratin and B-keratin. These keratins help build different types of skin such as hair and nails. In some
on your head is comprised of a tough protein called keratin. There are two types of keratin. One being the α-keratins otherwise known as the alpha keratin which produces hair, horns, nails and hooves found on mammals and the other is called the β-keratins also referred to as the beta-keratin which is in charge of making scales, shells as well as reptile and bird claws. The keratin found on the human head is the alpha keratin this type of keratin is a fibrous structural protein, meaning that it is
Science Hair is an important part of our body. It can be found anywhere and can be a useful evidence in forensic science. It consists of three layers, namely cuticle, cortex and medulla. Cuticle- is a covering that consists of hard scales made of keratin, which is a protein approaching tip ends of the hair. There are three types of cuticle: coronal, imbricated and spinous types. Cortex consists of stretched out beam shaped cells, buried with pigment granules for hair to cede with color and is the
body. The first part of the integumentary system is the epidermis and the dermis. The epidermis is the outer layer of the skin and functions as the major protection for the underlying skin and nerves. The epidermis is filled with tiny cells called keratin, which are dead cells that also help aid in protection. The epidermis also contains melanocytes which contain cells called melanin which are what give our skin color and absorb the light from the sun. The second layer of the skin is the dermis. This
The skin is part of the Integumentary system and it is considered the largest organ in the human body. Among its functions, the skin serves as a barrier, body temperature regulator, and metabolic controler. This organ is composed of many parts such as glands, nerves, different tissues, and other important factors. Each component has a specific function for which it is responsible for. The skin serves as a barrier by protecting our blood supply and other sensible parts from pathogens, outside threats
The purpose of my experiment is to determine whether human hair or animal hair is better at absorbing oil. In order to find this out, the following questions have been researched, how do you clean an oil spill? Why does hair soak up oil? How is the hair used? Does type/color matter? How effective is it? I will have 10 trails, using the same amount of hair and oil each time, the oil will also be mixed with water to duplicate a more accurate oil spill environment. How do you clean an oil spill?
of producing keratins. The cells that make up these proteins are called epithelial. The epithelial cells help produce hair, skin and nails. Keratin helps tissues not get ruined from touching other things. If someone were to scratch their head, keratin would help protect the hair, skin, or nails. There are two types of keratins. Type I and Type II. Type one is located in a cluster on top of the chromosome. Type II is located on chromosome 12. There are many different types of keratins found in many

It was a cloudy, gloomy evening when I first saw the peacock. I was outside, sitting under an aspen tree, bare as bone and as gnarly as a twisted grin. The wind whistled, a low, malevolent song that shook the walls of my small home and rattled the falling leaves of the barren trees around me. So this was it. The fall of life. Everything seemed to fail. No birds serenaded the inhabitants of Earth, no rabbits feasted on the dying grass. I had run out of food, out of water, and I awaited death
The Integumentary System is the organ system that act as the protector. It shields the body from many types of harmful things and damages, such as viruses, bacteria, and pollutions. One way of harmful things to enter the body is if the skin was somehow opened by getting cut or torn. Within the Integumentary System there is the skin. The skin is the largest organ of the humans body. It covers more than three thousand square inches of the body and weighs over six pounds. I believe the skin is the most
The nail bed is the soft tissue under a fingernail or toenail that is the origin for new nail growth. Various types of injuries can occur at the nail bed. These injuries may involve bruising or bleeding under the nail, cuts (lacerations) in the nail or nail bed, or loss of a part of the nail or the whole nail (avulsion). In some cases, a nail bed injury accompanies another injury, such as a break (fracture) of the bone at the tip of the finger or toe. Nail bed injuries are common in people who have
Hair dye is usually a soluble substance for staining or colouring hair. There are mainly two types of hair dye which are fully chemical based, partially chemical and natural based dyes. Under chemically based hair dyes there are permanent, demi-permanent, semi-permanent and temporary hair dyes. On the other hand, natural hair dyes are of two types which are henna based and organic based. Henna is a plant that grows in dry, hot climates. When its leaves are harvested, dried and powdered and then mixed
Introduction Skin is the major organ in the human body, that defend the body from foreign microorganisms, adjust body temperature and it is responsible for sensation. Any disruption of this layer will open the gate for the microbes to enter the body, so it is important to maintain the skin intact. The skin needs proper care to be healthy, this need increases as we become older, due to decrease the ability of elderly to reposition themselves, take care of their skin or taking care of their nutrition

The integumentary system has an assortment of capacities; it may serve to waterproof, pad, and ensure the more profound tissues, discharge squanders
Laminin 332 Laminin 332 is present in the BMZ of nearly all epithelial tissues in the human body [140]. Furthermore, laminin 332 is the main component found at the upper lamina densa/lamina lucida border at the base of the anchoring filaments [120]. Mutations in laminin 332 are linked to a condition that causes skin fragility and severe blistering, which is known as junctional epidermolysis bullosa [141-143]. Moreover, the absence of laminin 332 expression considerably disrupts the epidermal adhesion
Owl pellets are the remains of an owl’s meal. In the owl pellet there are bone that were undigested, fur, feathers, and different types of rodents. Most owls swallow their prey whole which means they can’t digest bone that they eat so they have to ‘barf’ it up. The owl that we are studying is a Barn Owl. A barn owl is found in open grasslands and farmlands. Per season a barn owl lays about 5-11 eggs. An adult owl consumes several rodents each night. To put it into perspective a barn owl swallowing
instance, according to Britannica Middle School, it gave me information about the main ingredient that makes up a nail. The main ingredient that makes up a nail is Keratin. In addition, this corporation also stated what keratin is and how it helps the nail. Keratin is the same material that makes up hair, horns, and feathers. Keratin it good for the nail because it helps it stay strong. There is also something that supports the nail. For example, the Britannica Middle School corporation stated what
Fibrous and Globular Proteins Proteins are necessary for function of nearly all forms of life on this earth. They consist of one or several long chains (polypeptides) of amino acids linked in a characteristic sequence. This sequence is called the primary structure of the protein. These polypeptides may undergo coiling to for an alpha helix, or pleating to forma beta pleated sheet, the nature and extent of which is described as the secondary structure. The three-dimensional shape of the coiled
Skin optics Introduction Human skin is a multi-layered structure. It is generally divided into two layers, the epidermis and the dermis. Below the dermis a subcutaneous fat layer is found. The epidermis can be further divided into several sub-layers. These are the stratum corneum, the stratum lucidum, the stratum granulosum, the stratum spinosum, and the stratum germinativum. The stratum germinativum is usually referred to as the basal layer. Skin optics is the manner in which skin reflects
