Animals with ultraviolet color patterns can be found all over nature. Here’s what we know about what purpose these patterns ...

ultraviolet (UV) light starts at the end of visible light and ends at the beginning of X-rays. The primary source of ultraviolet light is the sun, and most of the UV light that reaches earth is in ...

Researchers at the Manchester Institute of Biotechnology (MIB) have demonstrated how genetically engineered enzymes can ...

Lots of sunshine is expected over the weekend and into the start of next week. Everyone loves when the blue sky is out, but many forget to protect their skin from potentially harmful UV radiation.

Researchers at James Cook University (JCU) have been investigating why some Australian mammals glow under ultraviolet (UV) ...

Higher frequencies, which are those above the visible spectrum, make up ultraviolet (beyond violet) light. Having the most energetic frequencies, UV light can wrinkle your skin, give you sunburn ...

But state-of-the-art ultraviolet and visible (UV-vis) spectrophotometry, which measures electronic transitions of a wide range of molecules as they absorb light, was cumbersome and expensive. In July ...

What is UV-Vis Spectroscopy? UV-Vis spectroscopy, short for ultraviolet-visible spectroscopy, is an analytical technique that measures the absorption or reflectance of light by a sample in the ...

By using precise control of ultraviolet and visible light, the researchers could switch between the rotation of helices, offering a breakthrough for novel materials with tunable properties.

Ultraviolet (UV) light is a type of light treatment. Doctors use it to treat a number of skin conditions. These include a type of skin cancer called T cell lymphoma. There are different types of UV ...

This breakthrough could lead to cleaner, more efficient ways of making medicines and other important chemicals, all while ...

Interestingly, under certain conditions, the resulting helical aggregates were found to be right-handed instead of left-handed, and exposure to stronger UV light followed by visible light led to ...
