SEARCH PRODUCERS OF POLYPHENOLS AND SOME PIGMENTS AMONG BASIDIOMYCETES [PDF]
Biotechnologia Acta, 2014 General content of polyphenols, carotenoids and melanin in basidiomycetes carpophorus was determined. 50 species were studied, 27 of which belong to the Polyporales form and 23 are to the Agaricales form.

GENES DETERMINING THE SYNTHESIS OF LAVONOID AND MELANIN PIGMENTS IN BARLEY
Вавиловский журнал генетики и селекции, 2018 In addition to the green color caused by chlorophyll, grain and vegetative organs of barley can be colored by compounds of phenolic nature, such as melanins and lavonoids, which include anthocyanins, proanthocyanidins. Due to the wide biological activity

Effect of Melanization on Thallus Microstructure in the Lichen Lobaria pulmonaria
Journal of Fungi, 2022 Lichens often grow in microhabitats where they experience severe abiotic stresses. Some species respond to high UV radiation by synthesizing dark brown melanic pigments in the upper cortex. However, unlike the melanized structures of non-lichenized fungi,

Melanin ‘dust’ or ‘ghost’? [PDF]
Experimental Dermatology, 2016 To definitely verify the dogma of ‘melanin dust’ in the stratum corneum, Tobin et al have now reported a careful review of the literature with a vis-à-vis of the Fontana Masson (FM) and Von Kossa (VK) histochemical methods plus the Warthin-Starry (WS) stain on very thin cryosections of normal human skin and mouse pelage skin epidermis lacking ...

Antioxidative Properties of Melanins and Ommochromes from Black Soldier Fly Hermetia illucens
Biomolecules, 2019 A comparative study of melanin and ommochrome-containing samples, isolated from the black soldier fly (BSF) by enzymatic hydrolysis, alkaline and acid alcohol extraction or by acid hydrolysis, was carried out.

Biology, 2023 The natural colour of hair shafts is formed at the bulb of hair follicles, and it is coupled to the hair growth cycle. Three critical processes must happen for efficient pigmentation: (1) melanosome biogenesis in neural crest-derived melanocytes, (2) the

Nature, 1952 IN further attempts to find a solvent for melanin which would be of use in histological work, the following substances have been found to dissolve, in the cold, the pigments extracted from the ink sac of Sepia officinalis and melanoma tissue, and those prepared from adrenaline and 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine (dopa): ethylene glycol monomethyl ether ...

Photodynamics of Melanin Radicals: Contribution to Photoprotection by Melanin†
Photochemistry and Photobiology, 2022 AbstractThe mechanism of very efficient relaxation of the melanin‐photoexcited states, responsible for the photoprotective action of the pigment, remains a subject for intense investigation. The most recent study by C. Grieco, F. Kohl, and B. Kohler, entitled “Ultrafast radical photogeneration pathways in eumelanin,” addresses key issues of melanin ...
