Multifunctional Natural and Synthetic Melanin for Bioelectronic Applications: A Review

Original language description

Emerging material interest in bioelectronic applications has highlighted natural melanin and its derivatives as promising alternatives to conventional synthetic conductors. These materials, traditionally noted for their adhesive, antioxidant, biocompatible, and biodegradable properties, have barely been used as conductors due to their extremely low electrical activities. However, recent studies have demonstrated good conductive properties in melanin materials that promote electronic-ionic hybrid charge transfer, attributed to the formation of an extended conjugated backbone. This review examines the multifunctional properties of melanin materials, focusing on their chemical and electrochemical synthesis and their resulting structure-property-function relationship. The wide range of bioelectronic applications will also be presented to highlight their importance and potential to expand into new design concepts for high-performance electronic functional materials. The review concludes by addressing the current challenges in utilizing melanin for biodegradable bioelectronics, providing a perspective on future developments.
