Description

Acid Black 2 (Nigrosine) is an alcohol-soluble absorber used to mimic skin pigmentation in tissue-mimicking phantoms. Acid Black 2 acts as an absorber in silicone-based thin tissue phantoms to simulate varying melanosome volume fractions in skin[1].

In Vitro

Acid Black 2 (1.95-42.33 mg; 6 h) produces silicone-based tissue-mimicking skin phantoms with Mf=2%, 6%, 14%, 30%, and 43% that have nominal μa values of 3.4, 10.2, 23.9, 51.2, and 73.5 cm-1 at 685 nm, respectively, for simulating varying skin pigmentation levels[1].

Help & FAQs
  • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

    Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
