Identification of Novel Pigmentation Modulators by Chemical Genetic Screening [PDF]

Journal of Investigative Dermatology, 2007
There is a continual need for compounds that effectively modulate melanin synthesis. To identify novel pigmentation modulators and their cellular targets, chemical genetic screenings were performed with triazine-based combinatorial libraries that include various linkers as intrinsic components of the small molecules in the library.

Surface‐Ligand‐Dependent Excited‐State Dynamics in Aqueous CuInSe2/ZnS Quantum Dot–Chlorophyll Assemblies

Advanced Materials Interfaces, EarlyView.
CuInSe2/ZnS quantum dots are synthesized in water and coupled with chlorophyll to probe ligand‐controlled excited‐state interactions. Broad visible–NIR emission and high PLQY are observed. Time‐resolved measurements reveal shortened chlorophyll lifetimes, indicating dynamic quenching via Förster energy and/or charge transfer, highlighting surface ...

Identification of organic pigments in tattoo inks and permanent make-ups using MALDI-TOF mass spectrometry [version 1; referees: 2 approved]

F1000Research, 2017
Nowadays, about 12% of the European and 20% of the US population are tattooed. Rising concerns regarding consumer safety, led to legal restrictions on tattoo inks and permanent make-up (PMU) inks.

Bioactive Pigments of Monascus purpureus: Identification and Characterization

Journal of Food and Pharmaceutical Sciences
Monascus purpureus is a filamentous fungus that has long been recognized as one of the main producers of natural pigments. These pigments, including yellow (ankaflavin, monascin), orange (rubropunctatin, monascorubrin), and red (rubropunctamine ...

Studies on flower pigments of chrysanthemum mutants: Nero and Wonder groups

Acta Scientiarum Polonorum: Hortorum Cultus, 2004
Two groups of chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflora Tzvelev) representing the five cultivars were analysed to define their content of pigments in the inflorescence with the spectrophotometric method.

An AI‐Enabled All‐In‐One Visual, Proximity, and Tactile Perception Multimodal Sensor

Advanced Robotics Research, EarlyView.
Targeting integrated multimodal perception of robots, an AI‐enabled all‐in‐one multimodal sensor is proposed. This sensor is capable of perceiving three types of modalities, including vision, proximity, and tactility. By toggling an ultraviolet light and adjusting the camera focus, it switches smoothly between multiple perceptual modalities, enabling ...

Isolation and Identification of Paint Pigments by Sublimation [PDF]

Microscopy Today, 1996
Abstract The particle size of organic pigments used in modern coatings is extremely fine. Since these individual pigment crystals are typically less than 1 μm in size, they are difficult, if not impossible, to characterize and identify by microscopical means.
