A number of current technical difficulties can be overcome by incorporating of strongly infrared-absorbing melanin nanoparticles (mNP), which are biologically benign and strongly optically absorbing ...

In the study, the team used a synthetic melanin that was engineered with nanoparticles. They modified the melanin structure so that it has a higher free radical-scavenging capacity.

Studies show in mice show that targeting the metabolic pathways could inhibit the growth of melanoma and combining this ...

Autosomal dominant polycystic kidney disease (ADPKD) is a severe genetic disorder primarily caused by mutations in the PKD1 or PKD2 genes, which encode polycystins 1 and 2, affecting over 12 million ...

Scientists at Northwestern University say they have developed a synthetic melanin cream that repairs injured skin as well as protecting against sun damage.

What is melanin? Melanin is a naturally occurring substance or pigment produced by special skin cells called melanocytes that are found in one's skin, hair follicles, eyes and other parts of the body.

The skin healing cream was developed when scientists created the synthetic melanin engineered nanoparticles.

Germaine Bolds-Leftridge, a visionary in the beauty industry, is redefining skincare for melanin-rich complexions with IKNOW Skincare.
