Previous studies have demonstrated the presence of precursors and coupling agents in wastewater from hair dyeing processes. The complex reaction involved in the oxidation of these compounds can generate extremely hazardous sub-products, leading to an increase in the mutagenicity and toxicity of wastewater. Without proper treatment, this highly toxic wastewater may find its way into the drinking water treatment plant. The present work aimed to investigate the main products generated after the oxidation reaction involving p-toluenediamine (PTD) and p-aminophenol (PAP) - precursors that widely used in the composition of commercial permanent hair dyes, under experimental conditions close to the routine hair dyeing process (in the presence and absence of hydrogen peroxide in ammoniacal medium), using spectroscopic techniques. The study also investigated the mutagenicity and toxicity of the products formed in the hairdressing wash water and conducted detection analysis to determine the presence of the precursors and Bandrowski's Base Derivative (BBD) in samples of wastewater, surface and drinking water using HPLC-DAD and linear voltammetry techniques. Based on this investigation, we identified several PTD and PAP self-oxidation products and eleven sub-products derived from the reaction between PTD and PAP. Assays conducted using Salmonella typhimurium YG1041, with and without activation-induced rat liver metabolism (S9), indicated mutagenicity of the reaction products in concentrations above 10.0 μg μL. The concentrations of PTD, PAP, and several reactions and oxidation products of these precursors were detected in wastewater and water samples.

Sheep have naturally pigmented wool which interferes with dyeing. Selection has been carried out over many years to remove pigment, with substantial success, but most wool still contains some pigment. As an alternative to selection, it has been proposed to take a naturally occurring mutation found in black Suffolk sheep, that blocks wool pigmentation, and introgress it into other breeds.

It is highly anticipated that efforts will be made to raise the level of industrial effluent reclamation on the background of continuously minimizing waste stream based on preconcentration tool. For this purpose, a triple-doped nanocomposite (TFN-tri) membrane through partially alternative doping spiro-structured 2,2'-dimethyl-1,1'-biphenyl-4,4'-diamine dihydrochloride and flexible 4,4'-bipiperidyl dihydrochloride and continuous incorporating of molybdenum disulfide quantum dots was successfully fabricated. With the assistance of self-synthesized biodegradable flocculant pretreatment, raw hairwork dyeing effluent (HDE) was stably recycled up to 95.

Tyrosinase is a copper-containing polyphenol oxidase widely applied in the food, cosmetics, pharmaceutical, and other industries. Currently, the production of commercial tyrosinase primarily relies on extraction from fungi, which has high costs, low purity, low specific activity, and poor stability. The objective of this study is to obtain highly expressed bacterial tyrosinase with potential for industrial applications.

As hair dyeing gains popularity across all age groups, concerns about the potential damage caused by chemical treatments are also on the rise. Chemical dyes have a multifaceted impact on hair fibers, affecting their morphology, physical structure, and protein composition. In a comprehensive study, we investigated the alterations in morphological and mechanical properties, as well as the chemical composition of hair fibers following continuous dyeing.
