Quantification of melanin in hepatic and cardiac lipofuscin.

L M Ambani, J W Jhung, L M Edelstein, M H Van Woert.   

Abstract

Melanin pigment in liver and heart tissue, obtained at autopsy from patients, was isolated and quantified. The quantity of melanin extracted was directly proportional to lipofuscin granule counts. Infrared and electron spin resonance spectographs of the isolated pigments from liver and heart showed absorption characteristics identical to those of known melanins. The pigment was absent in fetal and neonatal life, increased in brown atrophy of the heart and liver, and diminished in livers with fatty metamorphosis.
