Comparison of UVA protection afforded by high sun protection factor sunscreens

Journal of the American Academy of Dermatology, 2000
UVA protection afforded by 6 different sunscreens with a sun protection factor of 21 or more was compared by means of the persistent pigmentation darkening method. Colorimetric and visual assessment showed significant differences in UV radiation-induced pigmentation at 2 hours.

Factors Associated With Sun Protection Behaviors Among Childhood Cancer Survivors

Journal of Pediatric Hematology/Oncology, 2023
Background: Childhood cancer survivors (CCS) are at increased risk of developing skin cancer. Engaging in sun-protective behaviors may ameliorate that risk, but prior work shows that survivors engage in suboptimal levels of sun-protective behaviors.

The Reliability of Sun Protection Factor

1991
The current test procedure for determination of the sun protection factor (SPF) of sunscreen preparations (Federal Register 1978), which is based on the mean SPF of a test group, leads to an inevitable bias, since the result largely depends on the dose increments and the range of irradiation doses selected for determination of the minimal erythema dose

In vitro approaches to evaluation of Sun Protection Factor

Toxicology in Vitro, 2007
The efficacy of sunscreen products has been recognized as an important public health issue. Adequate methods for assessment of the level of protection should be developed and standardised. While the SPF COLIPA testing method in vivo has been used for years, preference should be given to in vitro testing methods as in vivo methods raise ethical concern.

Determination of sun protection factors in the hairless mouse

International Journal of Cosmetic Science, 1981
SynopsisA laboratory method for determining sun protection factors (SPF) in the hairless mouse has been developed. The ability of the method to predict the SPF in man has been investigated using sunscreen ingredients and finished products with known activities in man. The results indicate that the hairless mouse can be used to assess sunscreen products
