13.7.3.6 Arabinoxylans in cosmetics
Arabinoxylan derivatives, such as cation arabinoxylans and their hydrophobically modified products, are potentially useful ingredients in cosmetic and personal care products (Yang, Wuxi, & Cui, 2017). Water-soluble cationic arabinoxylans exhibit hair conditioning properties, and arabinoxylans with low-molecular-weight and high charge density can be absorbed on the hair surface. Cationic polymers are commonly used in hair conditioners as the electrostatic interactions between the positively charged cationic polymer and anionic hair surface lead to the absorption of the conditioner on the hair surface, thus making the hair soft and smooth (Fig. 13.18). Properties such as diverse structure, biocompatibility, nontoxicity, and low production costs make arabinoxylans promising candidates for these uses (US patent 2019).

Answer:
Follicular phase
Explanation:
Menstrual cycle consists of 3 phases namely:
1. Follicular phase.
2. Ovulatory phase
3. Luteal phase
The follicular phase is stimulated by the follicle stimulating hormone(FSH). The first day of menstrual cycle marks the beginning of the follicular phase. The estrogen and progesterone reduces together with shedding of the uterine lining. In this phase and the follicles starts to form in the ovary. As time goes on only one follicle which contains egss continues to develop in the ovary which is released later.
