MELANIN

MELANIN IS THE BLACK CHEMICAL IN OUR SKIN, HAIR, AND EYES. THE WORD MELANIN MAY BE DEFINED AS FOLLOWS: MELANO (GREEK WORD) MEANING BLACK. ANIN IS DERIVED FROM A SIMILAR WORD CALLED AMINE. AMINE IS A NITROGEN BASED FUNCTIONAL GROUP DERIVED FROM AMMONIA (NH3) AND IS DESIGNATED IN CHEMISTRY AS A HYDROCARBON AMINE WHEN IT IS ATTACHED TO A HYDROCARBON. HYDROCARBONS ARE CHEMICAL UNITS THAT CONTAIN CARBON AND HYDROGEN ATOMS. THUS, MELANIN=BLACK AMINE. THE TERM MELANIN IS USED TO REPRESENT CHEMICAL STRUCTURES THAT RANGE FROM GOLDEN BROWN TO BLACK AND ARE MANUFACTURED IN THE BODY FROM SMALLER CHEMICAL UNITS SUCH AS:PHENYLALNINE(1.2) THE AMINO ACID TYROSINE, THE CATECHOLAMINES DOPAMINE, NOREPINE- PHRINE AND EPINEPHRINE. ALL OF THESE SMALLER UNITS FORM A CHAIN (POLYMERIZE) INTO MELANIN. THEY ALSO FORM INDOLEAMINES SUCH AS SEROTONIN, MELATONIN/MELATONIN DERIVATIVES WHICH ARE PRODUCED IN THE PINEAL GLAND. IT IS INTERESTING TO NOTE AT THIS POINT THE GRAFTED MANS MANUFACTURING AND USE OF "MELATONIN"PILLS. MELANIN IS NATURALLY OCCURING IN THE ORIGINAL PEOPLES OF THE PLANET EARTH (BLACK, BROWN, RED, AND YELLOW). THE GRAFTED OR SO CALLED "WHITE MAN" HAS A SMALL AMOUNT. MELANIN IS ALSO NATURALLY FOUND IN THE SOIL, PLANTS, ANIMALS, AND IN THE WATERS OF THE EARTH. IN PLANTS AND ANIMALS MELANIN ACTS AS A PROTECTIVE DEVICE AGAINST INVADING ORGANISMS.

MELANIN IS BLACK BECAUSE ITS CHEMICAL STRUCTURE WILL NOT ALLOW ANY TYPE OF ENERGY TO ESCATPE ONCE THIS ENERGY HAS COME IN CONTACT WITH ITS STRUCTURE. MELANIN CAPTURES ENERGY IN MAY WAYS. FOR EXAMPLE, LIGHT ENERGY FROM THE SUN OR ARTIFICAIL LIGHT, OR VIBRATIONAL SOUNDS FROM A STEREO ALL CAUSE MELANIN TO HAVE ITS BLACK COLOR. WHEN THESE ENERGY FORMS OR PARTICLES LEAVE THE SOURCE AND TRAVEL IN PARTICLES THEY ARE ABSORBED BY THE MELANIN IN SKIN AND OTHER AREAS OF THE BODY. ON THE MOLECULAR LEVEL ELECTRONS IN MELANIN'S ORBITAL PATH REARRANGE THEMSELVES AND UNDERGO A CHANGE KNOWN AS RESONANCE. THIS REARRANGEMENT OF ELECTRONS CAUSE CERTAIN DOUBLE BONDS TO SHIFT THEIR POSITION TO SITES IN THE MELANIN MOLECULE THAT ARE LOW IN ENERGY.THIS IS WHY MELANIN IS BLACK AND IS ABLE TO REARRANGE ITS CHEMICAL STRUCTURE TO ABSORB ENERGY(SOUND, RADAR WAVES, RADIO/TV,MICROWAVES,THERMAL/RADIANT HEAT,VISIBLE LIGHT,X-RAY, COSMIC RAYS, U.V.LIGHT,EARTH'S MAGNETIC ENERGY, ELECTROMAGNETIC ENERGY.)
