evaluation of ultraviolet radiation emitted from compact fluorescent lamps

background : one way to optimize energy consumption is replacing incandescent lamp with compact fluorescent lamps .these lamps produce ultraviolet radiation due to the nature of light production. this study aimed to evaluate the ultraviolet radiation emitted from compact fluorescent lamps which are widely used in iran. methods : this study carries out on 16 compact fluorescent lamps (four diffe...

Effects of ultraviolet radiation on Langerhans cells

Research on penetration of ultraviolet (UV) radiation into human skin shows that about 20% of UVA and 10% of UVB can reach the basal layer of the epidermis. As a consequence, Langerhans cells (LCs), located in suprabasal layers, are subject to the influence of the two types of UV radiation. This phenomenon leads to quantitative and qualitative alterations in LCs, including reduction in their nu...

Solar ultraviolet radiation on the ground level of Isfahan

Introduction: Ultraviolet (UV) radiation affects human organs such as skin, eyes and immune system, as well as animals and plants. The main natural source of UV radiation is the Sun. To study the effects of solar UV radiation there is a need to quantify variations of solar energy received on the earth surface at different intervals. Materials and Methods: To measure UV radiation a broadband fib...
