Melaninas

Descripción:

Melaninas son un grupo de biopolímeros complejos que son principalmente responsables de la pigmentación en varios organismos, incluidos los humanos. Se producen a través de la polimerización oxidativa de compuestos fenólicos, particularmente de la tirosina, y se caracterizan por su color marrón oscuro a negro. Melaninas son insolubles en agua y disolventes orgánicos, lo que contribuye a su estabilidad y resistencia a la degradación. Exhiben un alto grado de heterogeneidad estructural, con variaciones en el peso molecular y la composición dependiendo de la fuente y las condiciones ambientales. Melaninas desempeñan roles cruciales en los sistemas biológicos, incluyendo la protección contra la radiación UV, la captura de radicales libres y la contribución a la coloración de la piel, el cabello y los ojos. Además, tienen aplicaciones potenciales en varios campos, incluyendo la medicina, la cosmética y la ciencia de materiales, debido a sus propiedades únicas como la biocompatibilidad y la actividad antioxidante. El número CAS 8049-97-6 se refiere específicamente a un tipo de melanina, destacando su importancia tanto en contextos biológicos como industriales.

Melanin - fungal (Ganoderma lucidum)

CAS: 8049-97-6

Melanin - fungal (Ganoderma lucidum) is a high-molecular-weight polymer, which is derived from the fruiting body and mycelium of the Ganoderma lucidum mushroom. This compound is a biopolymer formed through the oxidative polymerization of phenolic and/or indolic compounds, a process catalyzed by tyrosinase. The mode of action of this melanin involves its ability to absorb harmful ultraviolet (UV) radiation and scavenge reactive oxygen species (ROS), thereby acting as a potent antioxidant and protective agent.

Melanin, from Sepia officinalis

CAS: 8049-97-6

Melanin is a natural pigment, which is derived from Sepia officinalis, commonly known as the common cuttlefish. This pigment is a complex biopolymer sourced from the ink sac of the cuttlefish, a cephalopod that produces ink as a defense mechanism. The mode of action of melanin involves its unique ability to absorb a broad range of the electromagnetic spectrum, providing effective protection against ultraviolet radiation. Additionally, it exhibits remarkable antioxidant properties due to its free radical scavenging abilities.

Melanin - insect (Hermetia illucens)

CAS: 8049-97-6

Melanin is a substance that plays a crucial role in the human body. It is responsible for the color of our hair, skin, and eyes. Melanin acts as a natural sunscreen, protecting our skin from harmful UV radiation. It also helps in the synthesis of vitamin D and acts as an antioxidant, protecting our cells from damage caused by free radicals. Gadolinium-based synthetic melanin has been developed to mimic the natural melanin pigment. This synthetic melanin has various applications in industries such as cosmetics, paints, and plastics. It can be used to create vibrant colors and provide UV protection in these products. Researchers have also discovered that certain natural products can enhance melanogenesis, the process of melanin production in the body. These natural pigments have shown antioxidant properties and can inhibit tyrosinase, an enzyme involved in melanin synthesis. By promoting the production of eumelanin (dark brown/black pigment) and inhibiting pheomelanin (yellow/red pigment
