Measure microscopic hair images: Online, fast, accurate, flexible With many exciting image examples *strucTEM Measure is our new online software for measuring microscopy images.
Hair fulfils versatile functions such as heat & light protection, moisture protection & regulation and camouflage. In humans and mammals, hair is roughly composed of three layers: From inside to outside the medulla, cortex and cuticle. The cuticle, also called the cuticle layer, consists of keratinized dead cells. Graphic: @nmphotographer - stock.adobe.com / modified
In healthy hair, this outer layer lies close together and ensures the healthy shine of the hair. We can quickly and accurately check the structure and quality of this outer cuticle layer with the scanning electron microscope.

Hair has a variable diameter of about 0.05 mm. They can be round, oval or even triangular. This can be observed particularly well with hair cross sections.
