Synthesis of L-DOPA based pigments with different physic-chemical properties

2018-01-08

Abstract excerpt

Using air- or Fe 2+ /H 2 O 2 -mediated oxidation, the formation of melanin-like pigments from L-DOPA was evaluated. The effects of the various reaction conditions on the efficiency of the reaction and the physic-chemical properties of the pigments generated (UV-Vis absorbance, fluorescence emission) was evaluated. As previously observed for other phenolic and indolic compounds, the use of high concentratio...
