Abstract
Scalp hair and blood sera of two groups of psoriatic individuals were examined regarding some of their mineral contents by flame photometric and colorimetric procedures, and the findings compared with a normal control group. The result obtained revealed changes in the mineral content of scalp hair of psoriatics. A possible relationship may exist between hair and serum minerals.
