A new study from Northwestern University in Illinois has synthesized a new form of melanin that could help shield the human skin and fabrics from toxins and radiation.
Selectively porous materials have been a persisting field of interest for chemists and materials scientists. The new study observes the sought-after behavior in fungi that had the properties for ages.
Inspired by Fungal Ghosts
The Northwestern University team, led by Nathan Gianneschi, then worked on synthesizing melanin that mimics…
