title: [Effect of melanins from black yeast fungi on cultured human cells. II. Differentiation of keratinocytes in vitro].
abstract: Data on the influence of the black yeast melanin (3 samples) on the in vitro differentiation of human keratinocytes are presented. The effect of melanins was estimated by the morphological state of keratinocytes using electron microscopy. The obtained differences in the state of the formed multilayer keratinocyte sheets depended on the melanin sample.
