Melanin probe-1(CAT: I015204) is a chemical compound used as a probe for detecting and imaging melanin. It is designed to specifically interact with melanin, a pigment found in various tissues, including the skin, hair, and eyes. Melanin probe-1 has the ability to bind to melanin, allowing for its visualization and detection in biological samples. This probe is commonly used in research and diagnostic applications to study melanin distribution, assess melanin-related disorders, and investigate melanoma, a type of skin cancer originating from melanocytes.
