Protection against solar ultraviolet radiation in childhood.
In the last decade, awareness of the harmful effects of solar ultraviolet radiation has increased. Modern lifestyles, outdoor occupations, sports and other activities make total sun avoidance impossible. Children spend more time outdoors than adults and there is compelling evidence that childhood is a particularly vulnerable time for the photocarcinogenic effects of the sun. Sun exposure among ...
متن کاملProtection against ultraviolet and visible radiation used in medical therapy
There is an increasing number of applications for UV and visible radiation in medical therapy and diagnosis, and in areas related to cosmetology. All these applications pose risks of unwanted exposure of the staff executing the treatment and the patients. A new survey in Norwegian hospitals accounting for the status of radiation protection in phototherapy will be presented. The survey concludes...
متن کاملPhotoprotection beyond ultraviolet radiation--effective sun protection has to include protection against infrared A radiation-induced skin damage.
Solar radiation is well known to damage human skin, for example by causing premature skin ageing (i.e. photoageing). We have recently learned that this damage does not result from ultraviolet (UV) radiation alone, but also from longer wavelengths, in particular near-infrared radiation (IRA radiation, 760-1,440 nm). IRA radiation accounts for more than one third of the solar energy that reaches ...
متن کاملRadiation Protection with Nanoparticles
At the onset of radiation exposure, free radicals are formed through ionizing reactions that are then capable of destroying normal tissues. While cells release a level of protective molecules, such as glutathione and metallothionine, they are not capable of blocking all damage, thus resulting in the death of normal tissues and therefore, we must continue to develop strategies to protect normal ...

another in the animal body. The full demonstration of the importance of transmethylation and of its relationship to the metabolism of choline, betaine, creatine, sarcosine, and a number of other methylated substances involved research that extended over a number of years. The discussion forms the subject matter of three of the chapters and requires considerably more than one-half of the book. I...
