Experience of using an excimer lamp equipped with UVB dose control system in dermatology
Biomedical Photonics, 2020 Intermediate ultraviolet (UVB) therapy is considered a relatively safe method of treating skin diseases with an autoimmune component in development compared to medical drug methods, including PUVA therapy. This is due to the small depth of penetration of

Implications of an updated ultraviolet background for the ionization mechanisms of intervening Ne VIII absorbers [PDF]
, 2016 Ne VIII absorbers seen in QSO spectra are useful tracers of warm ionized gas, when collisional ionization is the dominant ionization process. While photoionization by the ultraviolet background (UVB) is a viable option, it tends to predict large line-of ...

Photolyzable Polymer Brushes: Subtractive 3D Structuring of Surfaces Using Water and Light
Angewandte Chemie, EarlyView.Facile structuring of polymer brushes is achieved by flipping the process from controlled growth to controlled brush photolysis. Using surface‐initiated radical ring‐opening polymerization of cyclic monomers with photocleavable cyclobutane rings, photodegradable targets are embedded into the polymer chains. The enabled continuous subtractive patterning

Platelet-Activating Factor-Induced Reduction in Contact Hypersensitivity Responses Is Mediated by Mast Cells via Cyclooxygenase-2-Dependent Mechanisms [PDF]
, 2018 Platelet-activating factor (PAF) stimulates numerous cell types via activation of the G protein-coupled PAF receptor (PAFR). PAFR activation not only induces acute proinflammatory responses, but it also induces delayed systemic immunosuppressive effects ...

The depletion of gas in high-redshift dwarf galaxies from an inhomogeneous reionization [PDF]
, 2013 The reionization of the intergalactic medium (IGM) was likely inhomogeneous and extended. By heating the IGM and photo-evaporating gas from the outskirts of galaxies, this process can have a dramatic impact on the growth of structures.
