Methods not only for characterizing but also for quantitating melanin subtypes from the two types of melanin found in hair--eumelanin and pheomelanin--have been established. In relation to testing for drugs of abuse in hair, these methods will allow for correction of drug binding to specific melanin
## Abstract Melanin granules (MGs) have been extracted from human Chinese black hairs by either acid hydrolysis (CHβtype MGs) or enzymatic digestion (CPβtype MGs), and their chemical structure investigated at the solid state by means of ^13^C cross polarization magic angle spinning (CPMAS NMR) and
