    "abstract": "The optical scattering coefficient of a dilute, well solubilised eumelanin\nsolution has been accurately measured as a function of incident wavelength, and\nfound to contribute less than 6% of the total optical attenuation between 210\nand 325nm. At longer wavelengths (325nm to 800nm) the scattering was less than\nthe minimum sensitivity of our instrument. This indicates that UV and visible\noptical density spectra can be interpreted as true absorption with a high\ndegree of confidence. The scattering coefficient vs wavelength was found to be\nconsistent with Rayleigh Theory for a particle radius of 38+-1nm.",
