"Black gold" - melanins in human life [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Melaniny to ogólna nazwa grupy wielkocząsteczkowych barwników odpowiedzialnych za ciemną pigmentację organizmów. Powstają w wyniku oksydacyjnej polimeryzacji związków fenolowych i indolowych.

Potassium ion-mediated synthesis of highly water-soluble dendritically functionalized melanins

open access: yes, 2014
A series of melanin derivatives has been prepared by functionalization with dendritic azobenzene molecules under basic conditions with (K 2CO3) and without (Et3N) a potassium ion.

Isolation, characterization and assessment of the photoprotective effect of two fungal melanins

open access: yes, 2013
Melanins are a diverse group of pigmented biopolymers present in living organisms at all phylogenetic levels. Properties such as light scattering and absorption through a wide range of wavelengths, and scavenging of free radicals are common to all ...

Microscopy-based Raman spectroscopy of fungal melanins in a genetically amenable ascomycete

open access: yes, 2017
Fungal melanins are distinctive markers of rock-inhabiting ascomycetes. These complex polyphenols play important roles in stress tolerance while being essential components of fungal cell walls and useful biomarkers.

Effects of synthetic dopamine-melanins on oxygen radical formation induced by metal ions with dopamine.

open access: yes, 2001
To understand the possible physiological roles of the neuromelanins, we examined effects of synthetic dopamine-melanins on oxygen radical formation by metal ions with dopamine. Oxygen radical formation was detected by DNA cleavage analysis.
