Melanina, um pigmento natural multifuncional
2021
The melanins are a ubiquitous class of pigments found throughout nature from lower organisms to humans. It is one of the few biopolymers with fascinating functions in biology, medicine, chemistry, physics and engineering due to its relation to neurological diseases, skin disorders and melanoma, and, in the last couple of decades, its applications in biocompatible and biodegradable devices for organic electronic and bioelectronics. In this review, we present the major advances in physicochemical, biochemical and photochemical properties as well as some melanin-based technological application.
Keywords: Melanin; physical-chemical properties; biochemistry; photochemistry technological applications.
