  • Publication number: 20220322803
    Abstract: A hair perm forming method using electrolyzed water multiple times or for a predetermined period of time or more was revealed to have effects that cause very little damage to the hair to enable repeated treatments, enable perming of damaged hair and blonde hair compared with existing methods, show oxidative power higher than that of hydrogen peroxide, cause less hair damage, suppress dandruff bacteria, and significantly decrease the elution of dyes after perming. Therefore, the hair perm forming method can be advantageously used to effectively form a perm without harm to the human body. In addition, the washing of dyed and permed hair, dyed hair, and bleached hair with electrolyzed water, compared with washing with distilled water, has advantages in that the tensile strength of hair is maintained and the dye loss from the dyed hair is less.

  • Publication number: 20220062921
    Abstract: A method of preventing damage generated in a microbial aerosolization process is provided. The method includes a first step of injecting microorganisms into an atomizer containing a phosphate-buffered saline (PBS) solution in which one or more selected from the group consisting of ascorbic acid (AA) and bovine serum albumin (BSA) are contained; and a second step of injecting compressed air into an atomizer and spraying a bioaerosol.
