August 2019 (Cosmetics Business) — John Woodruff explores cosmetic ingredients developed to improve scalp health, strengthen hair and encourage hair growth, noting INOLEX’s AminoSensyl HC:  “Obtained from purely natural sources using green chemistry and avoiding quaternary compounds is AminoSensyl HC from Inolex.
