Measuring U.S. consumer sunscreen application at home and online: optimizing our methods to determine sunscreen application thickness for improved environmental emissions estimates

Environmental Challenges
Ultraviolet (UV) filters are chemical ingredients used in sunscreen products to protect the skin from the harmful effects of solar radiation and have come under scrutiny due to concerns of potential aquatic impacts after direct release to the environment.

Sub-optimal Application of a High SPF Sunscreen Prevents Epidermal DNA Damage in Vivo

Acta Dermato-Venereologica, 2018
The cyclobutane pyrimidine dimer (CPD) is a potentially mutagenic DNA photolesion that is the basis of most skin cancers. There are no data on DNA protection by sunscreens under typical conditions of use.

Dermatologic Best Practices for Manicures and Nail Care: A Systematic Review

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Manicure and pedicure procedures are widely viewed as benign cosmetic practices, yet emerging evidence links them to various dermatologic complications, including dermatitis, infection, photodamage and, in rare cases, cutaneous malignancy.

Beyond Skin and Eyes: The Medical and Social Burden of Oculocutaneous Albinism in Africa: A Narrative Review

JEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Oculocutaneous albinism (OCA) is a genetic disorder found worldwide, but its impact is particularly pronounced in the African continent. This results from both a higher prevalence and the persistent myths and superstitions surrounding the condition in many African communities.

Nanomaterials' Multigenerational Effects by Single and Joint Exposure in Non‐mammalian Models

Environmental Toxicology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Nanotoxicology has mainly focused on single‐generation studies, leaving multigenerational toxicity underexplored. Having animal welfare recently gained importance, we aimed to provide the state‐of‐the‐art of knowledge about multigenerational effects in non‐mammalian models in the case of nanomaterials (NM) single and joint exposure to other ...

Comparative Molecular Insights into Developmental and Behavioral Toxicity Induced by Octocrylene and Ethylhexyl Salicylate Exposure on Zebrafish

Integrative Zoology, EarlyView.
This study compared the ecological toxicity of organic ultraviolet filters, octocrylene (OC) and ethylhexyl salicylate (EHS), on zebrafish embryos and larvae. EHS exhibited higher acute toxicity, causing increased mortality, hypoactive behavior at 50 mg/L, and disruptions in lipid homeostasis, while OC primarily affected hypoxia response and ...
