Multispectral Laser‐Scanning Photoacoustic Microscopy With SRS‐Generated Wavelengths for Skin Chromophore Characterization

open access: yesJournal of Biophotonics, Volume 19, Issue 1, January 2026.
Unmixed maps showing vascular oxygen saturation (sO2), relative collagen, and relative melanin distributions. Maps were extracted from multispectral imaging of B6 and SKH1 Nude mouse abdominal skin using the proposed MS‐LS‐PAM system. ABSTRACT We present a single pump‐source, multispectral laser‐scanning photoacoustic microscopy (MS‐LS‐PAM) platform ...

Transcriptome Comparison Reveals Key Components of Nuptial Plumage Coloration in Crested Ibis

open access: yesBiomolecules, 2020
Nuptial plumage coloration is critical in the mating choice of the crested ibis. This species has a characteristic nuptial plumage that develops from the application of a black sticky substance, secreted by a patch of skin in the throat and neck region ...

The photoreactive free radical in eumelanin

open access: yesScience Advances, 2018
We demonstrate experimentally for the first time the presence of two free radicals in the pigment eumelanin. Melanin is the primary photoprotecting pigment in humans as well as being implicated in the development of deadly melanoma.

Persicaria tinctoria Extract Mitigates UV-Associated DNA Damage and Inflammation, While Boosting Vitamin D3 and Melanin in Human Skin

open access: yesCosmetics
Benefit/risk management of skin exposure to sunlight, especially ultraviolet (UV) rays, is mainly driven by photoaging, cancer incidence, and the requirement for vitamin D3 synthesis.

Comparative study of the physical parameters of melanosomes in hair of different colour varieties of Mustela putorius furo

open access: yesThe European Zoological Journal
Animal coat colour is determined by various factors, including the type of pigment, its quantity, the shape of pigment cells, and their distribution throughout the body.

Ultrafast spectral hole burning reveals the distinct chromophores in eumelanin and their common photoresponse

open access: yesChemical Science, 2019
Eumelanin, the brown-black pigment found in organisms from bacteria to humans, dissipates solar energy and prevents photochemical damage. While the structure of eumelanin is unclear, it is thought to consist of an extremely heterogeneous collection of ...

Quantitation of eumelanin and pheomelanin markers in diverse biological samples by HPLC-UV-MS following solid-phase extraction.

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2019
Eumelanin and pheomelanin are well known and common pigments found in nature. However, their complex polymer structure and high thermostability complicate their direct chemical identification.
