If you have interested Vet patholgists where you are you could do an interesting study with density of melanocytes in tissue. Salom hypos clearly make normal apearing black but it is greatly reduced. Is this due to the paucity of melanocytes compared to normal or a defect in melanin sythesis. It would be interesting to histologically examine tissue from the skin of hypos, T- and T albinos and the Moore Caramel and see what the melanocyte distribution is. This would be interesting in combination with the biochemical tests in melanin sythesis that you are planning.
