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

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

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

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.

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 ...

The team found the molecule porphyrin causes the fur of bandicoots, quolls, and possums to glow bright pink under black light ...

Tiny carbon tubes beam out stronger light by stealing a boost from internal vibrations—a discovery that could revolutionize ...

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.

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 ...
