Resilience and self-regulation processes of microalgae under UV radiation stress
Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology C: Photochemistry Reviews, 2020The apparent increase in solar ultraviolet (UV) radiations on the Earth’s surface, due to continuous depletion or diminishing of the stratospheric ozone shield has triggered serious ecological as well as biological consequences on several life-forms ...

Risks and Benefits of UV Radiation
2021While UV radiation is a skin carcinogen, this should not obscure the growing evidence that sunlight has significant health benefits, including impacts on cardiovascular and metabolic health. Epidemiological and mechanistic evidences for the importance of different wavelengths of sunlight, including blue light and UV radiation, are presented.

Interactive effects of solar UV radiation and climate change on material damage
Photochemical and Photobiological Sciences, 2019Solar UV radiation adversely affects the properties of organic materials used in construction, such as plastics and wood. The outdoor service lifetimes of these materials are influenced by their rates of degradation under solar UV radiation as well as by

A Real‐Time Wearable UV‐Radiation Monitor based on a High‐Performance p‐CuZnS/n‐TiO2 Photodetector
Advances in Materials, 2018Solar radiation, especially ultraviolet (UV) light, is a major hazard for most skin‐related cancers. The growing needs for wearable health monitoring systems call for a high‐performance real‐time UV sensor to prevent skin diseases caused by excess UV ...

Exposure of plants and animals to ultraviolet-B radiation (UV-B; 280–315 nm) is modified by stratospheric ozone dynamics and climate change. Even though stabilisation and projected recovery of stratospheric ozone is expected to curtail future increases ...

Documenta Ophthalmologica, 1995
The idea that UV radiation causes cataract has superficial biological plausibility based upon studies of UV-B on lens components, whole lenses and experimental animals. However, epidemiological studies on man, particularly geographical studies, are highly confounded by socioeconomic factors and yield little information.

Pharmacology & Toxicology, 1993
Abstract: Solar radiation is a well documented risk factor in melanoma and non melanocytic skin cancer (i.e. basal cell and squamous cell carcinoma). It has been suspected to play a role also for lip cancer and for eye melanoma. Primary prevention should include advises to the public about sensible sun exposure.

Effects of UV radiation on cells
Journal of Photochemistry and Photobiology B: Biology, 1989UV radiation interacts with mammalian cells in a very complex manner, although DNA appears to be the main chromophore. Recent literature within this field is reviewed. The review is concentrated on the following main topics: Chromophores for UV action, photoproducts in DNA, repair of UV-induced DNA damage, wavelength interactions, inactivation ...
