Sunlight and Skin Cancer [PDF]

open access: hybridBioMed Research International, 2001
It is well known that chronic exposure to ultraviolet (UV) radiation present in sunlight is responsible for the induction of most nonmelanoma skin cancer (NMSC) in humans. Wavelengths in the UV-B (290–320 nm) region of the solar spectrum are absorbed into the skin, producing erythema, burns, and eventually skin cancer.

Alteration of barrier properties, stratum corneum ceramides and microbiome composition in response to lotion application on cosmetic dry skin

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Xerosis, commonly referred to as dry skin, is a common dermatological condition affecting almost a third of the population. Successful treatment of the condition traditionally involves the application of cosmetic products facilitating the moisturisation ...

Compositional Variations between Adult and Infant Skin Microbiome: An Update

open access: yesMicroorganisms, 2023
Human skin and its commensal microbiome form the first layer of protection to the outside world. A dynamic microbial ecosystem of bacteria, fungi and viruses, with the potential to respond to external insult, the skin microbiome has been shown to evolve ...

Protecting ice from melting under sunlight via radiative cooling

open access: yesScience Advances, 2022
As ice plays a critical role in various aspects of life, from food preservation to ice sports and ecosystem, it is desirable to protect ice from melting, especially under sunlight.

Materials structure–property factorization for identification of synergistic phase interactions in complex solar fuels photoanodes

open access: yesnpj Computational Materials, 2022
Properties can be tailored by tuning composition in high-order composition spaces. For spaces with complex phase behavior, modeling the properties as a function of composition and phase distribution remains a formidable challenge.

Into the Shadows and Back into Sunlight: Photosynthesis in Fluctuating Light.

open access: yesAnnual Review of Plant Biology, 2022
Photosynthesis is an important remaining opportunity for further improvement in the genetic yield potential of our major crops. Measurement, analysis, and improvement of leaf CO2 assimilation (A) have focused largely on photosynthetic rates under light ...

Simulated Sunlight Rapidly Inactivates SARS-CoV-2 on Surfaces

open access: yesJournal of Infectious Diseases, 2020
Previous studies have demonstrated that SARS-CoV-2 is stable on surfaces for extended periods under indoor conditions. In the present study, simulated sunlight rapidly inactivated SARS-CoV-2 suspended in either simulated saliva or culture media and dried
