Other Terms review article
Summary Tyrosinase is an oxidase, which catalyzes melanogenesis and is responsible for enzymatic browning in damaged fruits. Neither hyperpigmentation in human skin nor enzymatic browning in fruits are desirable. This article surveys tyrosinase inhibitors newly discovered from natural and synthetic sources, for use in foods and cosmetics.
