Unexplored Mechanisms of Photoprotection: Synergistic Light Absorption and Antioxidant Activity of Melanin
Light exposure has relevant effects both on living organisms and artificial materials. In particular, ultraviolet radiation is known to kill living cells and damage human skin but also degrade important artificial materials like plastics. In nature, the main pigment responsible for photoprotection i...
