title: [Changes in the cuticle of a keratin fiber under the action of a low-temperature plasma].
abstract: Oxygen and air low-temperature plasma treatment leads to significant changes in fibre cuticle cell membrane (skin flakes). Both lipids and proteins were destroyed. The processes of intensive lipid oxidation resulted from low-temperature plasma action. This factor seems to change critical surface tension, wetting and increasing penetration of dyes through the cuticle.
