Solar UV exposure among outdoor workers in Denmark measured with personal UV-B dosimeters: technical and practical feasibility
BACKGROUND Exposure to solar ultraviolet radiation is a well-known cause of skin cancer. This is problematic for outdoor workers. In Denmark alone, occupational skin cancer poses a significant health and safety risk for around 400,000 outdoor workers. Objective measures of solar ultraviolet radiation exposure are needed to help resolve this problem. This can be done using personal ultraviolet r...
متن کاملLight: Physical and Biological Action
Attracted by the contemporary opportunities for processing the complex data of biology and medicine, many mathematicians, logicians, computer experts, and cyberneticists have begun to apply their crafts to the wiles of nature and disease. The application usually begins with some sort of mathematical formulation for a theory of what nature ought to be doing, and concludes with the hope that natu...
متن کاملDNA as a solar dosimeter in the ocean.
Stratospheric ozone depletion may result in increased solar UV-B radiation to the ocean's upper layers and may cause deleterious effects on marine organisms. The primary UV-B damage induced in biological systems is to DNA. While physical measurements of solar UV-B penetration into the sea have been made, the effective depth and magnitude of actual DNA damage have not been determined. In the exp...
متن کاملGlobal monitoring of atmospheric ozone and solar UV radiation
The global monitoring network of ground-based ozone measurements consists mainly of Dobson and Brewer spectrophotometers. These instruments provide total ozone column amounts derived from measurements of direct solar UV radiation. Analysis of total ozone measurements from the global monitoring network shows a nearly linear downward trend from 1980 to mid 1990s. Data after mid 1990s indicate tha...
متن کاملFabrication Fe3O4/SiO2/TiO2 Nanocomposites and Degradation of Rhodamine B Dyes under UV Light Irradiation
Recycling and reusing of catalyst is an important factor to produce capable and low cast catalysts. Silica coated magnetic nanoparticles (Fe3O4/SiO2) were synthesized via a simple sol-gel method with the aid of sonication. Fe3O4 nanoparticles. After that a layer of TiO2 was constricted by hydrolyze and condensation of Teteranormalbuthyltitanate to produce Fe3O4/SiO2/TiO2 nanocompsite. As-synthe...
