Melanin is a general term for a class of complex and diverse phenolic or indole-based biomolecules that are ubiquitous in the biological world. It provides structural strength to organisms and protects them from environmental stresses such as ultraviolet radiation, ionizing radiation, heavy metal pollution, and extreme temperatures. Melanin is not only a photoprotectant, anti-radiation agent, chelating agent, biological antioxidant, and immune booster, but also a type of bio-semiconductor material and photoelectric transmission material. Recent studies have also discovered that melanin has anti-snake venom properties, inhibits HIV replication, and can treat Parkinson's disease. Therefore, melanin has broad application prospects in medicine, cosmetics, food, and electronics. |
