Australian mammals glow under UV light due to specific molecular compounds, revealing hidden fur light secrets.

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

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

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 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 ...

In some people that are photosensitive, UV light from sunlight and indoor light sources can trigger a lupus flare. In addition to sunlight, ultraviolet rays are also given off by several different ...

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 ...

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.
