Preparation and Application of Light-Colored Lignin Nanoparticles for Broad-Spectrum Sunscreens

open access: yesPolymers, 2020
Recently, natural sun blockers have been drawing considerable attention because synthetic UV filters could have adverse effects not only on humans but also on the environment. Even though lignin, the second most abundant renewable resource on earth, is a

Separating and Purifying Mycosporine-like Amino Acids from Cyanobacteria for Application in Commercial Sunscreen Formulations

open access: yesBioTech, 2023
Using algal-derived mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) in sunscreen formulations is constrained by low cellular concentrations of MAAs and by the high costs associated with harvesting algal cells and extracting the MAAs.

A Novel Fluorescent-Material-Based Simple Method for Sunscreen Evaluation

open access: yesApplied Sciences, 2022
ISO standards exist for evaluating sunscreens, such as those based on visual inspection. This assessment yields subjective results and is thus unreliable.

Sunscreens and the photodermatoses

open access: yesJournal of Dermatological Treatment, 2001
The photodermatoses are defined by their clinical features which result from exposure to ultraviolet radiation or visible light. Accurate diagnosis, which is often complicated, is essential to ensure appropriate treatment and protection from precipitating wavelengths.

Sunscreen products impair the early developmental stages of the sea urchin Paracentrotus lividus

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2017
Marine ecosystems are increasingly threatened by the release of personal care products. Among them, sunscreens are causing concern either for the effects on skin protection from UV radiation and for the potential impacts on marine life. Here, we assessed

Stability of Sunscreens Containing CePO4: Proposal for a New Inorganic UV Filter

open access: yesMolecules, 2014
Inorganic UV filters have become attractive because of their role in protecting the skin from the damage caused by continuous exposure to the sun. However, their large refractive index and high photocatalytic activity have led to the development of ...

Update on photoprotection

open access: yesIndian Journal of Dermatology, 2012
Photoprotection by sunscreens, clothing and glasses are important to protect the skin against the detrimental effects of sun exposure. In order to achieve complete protection, topical strategies must shield against the range of solar wavelengths ...

DNA repair enzymes in sunscreens and their impact on photoageing—A systematic review

open access: yesPhotodermatology, Photoimmunology & Photomedicine, 2020
DNA damage is one of the main factors responsible for photoageing and is predominantly attributed to ultraviolet irradiation (UV‐R). Photoprotection by conventional sunscreens is exclusively prophylactic, and of no value, once DNA damage has occurred. As
