Aprašymas
In an era of global warming, knowledge of the effects of solar radiation on humans is of great importance and the latest discoveries in environmental photobiology are presented in this book. Each chapter provides an "historical" description of the phenomenology followed by the description of the state-of-the-art. Key topics include: Damages from acute versus chronic sun exposure; Skin Color, Melanin, Race/Ethnicity and UV-Induced DNA Damage; Genetic background and UV-induced skin cancer and DNA repair therapy. This is an indispensable resource for students and professionals working in fields relating to photochemistry, environmental science, biochemistry and biotechnology.
