Plant blue-light receptors

Trends in Plant Science, 2000
Plants have several blue-light receptors, which regulate different aspects of growth and development. Recent studies have identified three such receptors: cryptochrome 1, cryptochrome 2 and phototropin. Cryptochromes 1 and 2 are photolyase-like receptors that regulate hypocotyl growth and flowering time; phototropin mediates phototropism in response to

The Blue Light Hazard Versus Blue Light Hype

American Journal of Ophthalmology, 2022
The blue light hazard is the experimental finding that blue light is highly toxic to the retina (photic retinopathy), in brief abnormally intense exposures, including sungazing or vitreoretinal endoillumination. This term has been misused commercially to suggest, falsely, that ambient environmental light exposure causes phototoxicity to the retina ...

Blue Light and the Skin

2021
In photodermatology, UV radiation is the component of the solar system that has attracted the most interest as it represents the greatest risk of skin damage from solar exposure. Efficient protection strategies have therefore been developed to protect skin against powerful solar radiation.

Conversion of orange light into blue light

Spectrochimica Acta Part A: Molecular and Biomolecular Spectroscopy, 2010
Frequency upconversion in triply ionized praseodymium doped glass with composition TeO(2)-Na(2)O (TNO) system under the excitation with a laser light from a dye laser has been reported and the covalency, bonding parameter, nephalauxetic effect which provides the information about the nature of bonding between the lanthanide ions and the surrounding ...

Blue Light Protection, Part I—Effects of blue light on the skin

Journal of Cosmetic Dermatology, 2020
Abstract–Part IBackgroundBlue light is emitted visible light between the wavelengths of 400 to 500 nm. The main source of blue light is sunlight, but digital screens, light‐emitting diodes (LEDs), and fluorescent lighting serve as additional sources. Concerns about the negative effects of blue light on the skin have rapidly increased over the past 15 ...

Blue Light Blues

Scientific American, 2016
The article discusses the effects of blue light from electronic devices on people's ability to sleep. Topics discussed include the claim that blue light from the screens of computers and smartphones suppresses the hormone that induces sleepiness called melatonin, the solutions developed to help people sleep, such as tinted eyeglasses and natural ...

Virtual Blue Noise Lighting

Proceedings of the ACM on Computer Graphics and Interactive Techniques, 2022
We introduce virtual blue noise lighting, a rendering pipeline for estimating indirect illumination with a blue noise distribution of virtual lights. Our pipeline is designed for virtual lights with non-uniform emission profiles that are more expensive to store, but required for properly and efficiently handling specular transport. Unlike the

Blue Light and Skin Health

Journal of Drugs in Dermatology, 2022
Although blue light has been present in our lives for decades, this type of visible light has recently become a topic of significant interest as we shift to a greater percentage of our time spent in front of light-emitting devices. Especially during the Covid pandemic, as many companies pivoted from in-person meetings to discussions conducted via video
