  1. 1. Development and Evaluation of an Enzyme-Based Sunscreen

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Bioteknik; Lunds universitet/Bioteknik (master)

    Författare :Karolina Eriksson Torfgård; [2023]
    Nyckelord :Enzyme activity; UV-filter; Protease; Biotechnology; Technology and Engineering;

    Sammanfattning : Ultraviolet radiation (UVR), specifically of UVA and UVB, has been associated with the development of both photoaging and photo-carcinogenesis, potentially leading to cancer. The use of sun protection in the form of UV filters is known to minimize these damages. LÄS MER

  3. 2. Ubox : Automatic sunscreendispenser

    Uppsats för yrkesexamina på grundnivå, Högskolan i Halmstad/Akademin för företagande, innovation och hållbarhet

    Författare :Jenny Dahl; Lisa Stavhagen; [2022]
    Nyckelord :;

    Sammanfattning : With the purpose of reducing the growing disease of skin cancer, the idea of ​​an automated sunscreen dispenser called Ubox arose. The sun's UV radiation damages human cells, which can thus begin to divide uncontrollably and give rise to skin cancer. LÄS MER

  4. 3. Sunscreens Imploded : An eco-cultural exploration of enskinment, protection, and vulnerability

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för arkeologi och antik historia

    Författare :Tobias Bharucha; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Sunscreen; SPF; Protection; Vulnerability; Care; Toxicity; Ecologies; Skin; Enskinment; ‘Endocrine Disruptors’; Skin Cancers; Racialised Beauty; Smell;

    Sammanfattning : In this thesis I explore sunscreen use-practices, imaginaries, and material flows. I aim to understand how young people in the globally-immersed UK use sunscreens and how they makesense of them. LÄS MER

  5. 4. Ecotoxicological effects on the coral endosymbiont Symbiodiniaceae of organic UV-filter chemicals

    Master-uppsats, Uppsala universitet/Institutionen för biologisk grundutbildning

    Författare :Nanna Walther; [2022]
    Nyckelord :Environmental toxicology; Symbiodiniaceae; miljötoxikologi; phytoplankton; UV-filter chemicals; corals; environmental biology; biology; toxicology; chemicals; sunscreen; pollution; ocean; coral bleaching;

    Sammanfattning : Coral bleaching causes the disappearance of unique ecosystems supporting thousands of different species. The corals health depends on its relationship with its endosymbiont, the zooxanthellate Symbiodiniaceae. This mutualistic relationship can be disrupted by anthropogenic chemical pollution by inducing physiologically stress in Symbiodiniaceae. LÄS MER

  7. 5. Exposure of zinc oxide nanoparticles on lung epithelium: A comparison between submerged and air-liquid interface cultures

    Master-uppsats, Lunds universitet/Ergonomi och aerosolteknologi

    Författare :Julia Dobric; [2019]
    Nyckelord :lung toxicology; nanotoxicology; aerosol; air-liquid interface; ALI; NACIVT; nanoparticles; zinc oxide; Biology and Life Sciences;

    Sammanfattning : Zinc oxide nanoparticles (ZnO NPs) are often used in sunscreen and other cosmetic products with sun protection. They are also candidate to be used for various biological applications such as drug delivery, or in material science in for example solar cells. LÄS MER
