Every OGT Is Illuminated … by Fluorescent and Synchrotron Lights

O⁶-DNA-alkyl-guanine-DNA-alkyl-transferases (OGTs) are evolutionarily conserved, unique proteins that repair alkylation lesions in DNA in a single step reaction. Alkylating agents are environmental pollutants as well as by-products of cellular reactions, but are also very effective chemotherapeutic drugs. OGTs are major players in counteracting the effects of such agents, thus their action in t...

Analysis of compact fluorescent lights for use by patients with photosensitive conditions.

Ultraviolet radiation (UVR) is hazardous to patients with photosensitive skin disorders, such as lupus erythematosus, xeroderma pigmentosum and skin cancer. As such, these patients are advised to minimize their exposure to UVR. Classically, this is accomplished through careful avoidance of sun exposure and artificial tanning booths. Indoor light bulbs, however, are generally not considered to p...

Characterization of compact fluorescent lights RF emissions in the perspective of human exposure

In a context where energy is valued, the use of Compact Fluorescent Light bulbs with low energy consumption (CFL) tends to generalize. However, the radio noise produced by these sources is currently the subject of many discussions, particularly about the issue of human exposure. This paper is dedicated to the characterization of the electric and magnetic fields radiated by various models of lam...
