Study finds braces disrupt oral microbiome to pre-gum disease state

By Hiroshima University Department of Public Relations A study showed braces that give our smiles a makeover could also transform oral microflora to a pre-gum disease state. Now scientists plan to use their findings to prevent this from happening. A scientific study on the mouth’s microbial community found that patients who got braces had their good bacteria outnumbered by gum disease-causing ones. (Pexels) A study that sequenced oral microbiome before, during, and after braces of Japanese patients revealed a transformed bacterial community akin to mouths at a pre-gum disease state. But he added that these treatments could also be associated with bacteria-related problems.

Scientists shine new light on heat-damaged hair

By Hiroshima University Department of Public Relations A new technique allowed researchers to observe in greater detail how heat alters keratin proteins, helping in their search for ingredients that can prevent heat-damaged hair. A synchrotron radiation-based experimental technique developed at the Hiroshima Synchrotron Radiation Center (HiSOR) helped scientists get useful structural information on keratin proteins during heat treatments. (Pixabay) Researchers have observed in greater detail how heat changes keratin proteins that result in hair damage. Curling wands and flat irons could fry the keratin proteins that make up about 85% of our hair, turning it dry and brittle over time. When heated, keratin proteins aggregate and suspend in a solution, much like the hardening of raw eggs when boiled. Circular dichroism spectroscopy used in experiments to observe keratin structure allows light to pass through the solution for measurement. But it can only work when keratin is solubil
