Recent advances in melanin-like nanomaterials in biomedical applications: a mini review
Abstract Background Melanins are a group of biopigments in microorganisms that generate a wide range of colorants. Due to their multifunctionality, including ultraviolet protection, radical scavenging, and photothermal conversion, in addition to their intrinsic biocompatibility, natural melanins and...
