Narrowband ultraviolet B for the treatment of vitiligo [PDF]
After its first use in vitiligo in 1997, narrowband ultraviolet B (NBUVB) has been evaluated in the treatment of this condition by several groups of researchers. Its better efficacy and safety compared with psoralen plus ultraviolet A has helped it to be become the preferred modality for use in generalized vitiligo.

Langerhans cell responses to ultraviolet B radiation
Journal of Dermatological Science, 1999Skin exposure to solar radiation induces a series of characteristic changes, from the acute sunburn reaction to the development of pre-malignant and malignant tumors. The spectra of radiation within the ultraviolet B (UVB) light range (from 290 to 320 nm in wavelength) appear to cause most of the deleterious effects of solar radiation.

Strategies of ultraviolet-B protection in microscopic algae
Physiologia Plantarum, 1997Different species of microalgae show a wide range of susceptibility to ultraviolet‐B (UV‐B) radiation. To identify factors responsible for the UV‐B tolerance of some of the algae, we compared 8 species that are highly tolerant to UV‐B to 8 species that are highly susceptible. The tolerant species contained substantial amounts of an acetolysis‐resistant

Investigation of cutaneous photoadaptation to narrowband ultraviolet B
British Journal of Dermatology, 2014Photoadaptation describes the skin's ability to withstand an increased dose of ultraviolet (UV) radiation with repeated exposure, and this is the reason for exposure doses being increased during a course of phototherapy. However, directly measured data on photoadaptation are available only for broadband (BB) and not narrowband (NB)-UVB.To measure ...

Ultraviolet B and Incidence Rates of Leukemia Worldwide
American Journal of Preventive Medicine, 2011Recent research has suggested a relationship between vitamin D deficiency and risk of leukemia.Using data from the UN cancer database, GLOBOCAN, this study will determine whether a relationship exists for latitude and ultraviolet B (UVB) irradiance with incidence rates of leukemia in 175 countries.Multiple regression was used to analyze the independent

A Discussion on astronomy in the ultraviolet - The ultraviolet spectrum of B-type supergiants
Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series A, Mathematical and Physical Sciences, 1975The broad, steep-sided absorption lines in B-type supergiant spectra are stronger than the absorption lines in main-sequence stars. In addition to lines from the second, third and fourth spectra of the light elements and the metals there is a broad, pointed feature at 1720 A which has constant strength in the B-type supergiants regardless of spectral ...

A NEW DOSIMETER FOR ULTRAVIOLET‐B RADIATION
Photochemistry and Photobiology, 1989Abstract— A type of polycarbonate plastic was found to be sensitive to ultraviolet (UV) radiation. The damage to the material due to UV exposure was revealed by etching in a strong alkaline solution. The latent effect can be retained in the material for a period of at least 30 days.
