[Method] Melanin was isolated from walnut husk through alkali extraction and acid precipitation, and the factors that may influ- ence the extraction efficiency: temperature, duration, NaOH concentration and solid- liquid ratio were set at different levels. [Result] The optimal conditions for the ex- traction of melanin from walhut husk were temperature of 80 ℃, extraction duration of 120 min, NaOH concentration of 70 mol/L, and solid-liquid ratio of 1:20. [Conclu- sion] The optimal conditions for the extraction of melanin from walnut husk deter- mined in the present study will provide references for the development and utiliza- tion of natural melanin.展开更多
