Polydopamine and eumelanin models in various oxidation states

We report a comprehensive ab initio structural investigation of more than 43 000 probable molecular structures of polydopamine (PDA) and eumelanin in various oxidation states. With the aid of a computational approach including a brute-force algorithmic generation of chemical isomers and density func...
