Basic definitions
The shorter the wave lengths – the more energetic and harmful is the sun radiation, but on the other hand its penetration into the skin is much weaker.
The UV-C radiation stops at the ozone layer and does not reach our globe. The UV-B radiation causes serious photo-biological effects (skin cancer incl.). The UV-A radiation although less energetic than the former one penetrates into the deepest layers of the skin (the dermis) thus starting a physiological chain of damages such as premature aging of the skin and others. UV-II radiation is more energetic and more harmful than UV-I. A proper sun screen preparation (which blocks UV-B and UV-A radiation) will protect us from sunburns, skin cancer and accelerated aging of the skin.
UV – Radiation: Electro magnetic radiation in the following wave length:
UV-C Radiation: wave length 100 – 290 nanometer
UV-B Radiation: wave length 290 – 320 nanometer
UV-A Radiation: wave length 320 – 400 nanometer
UV-A: is divided into two categories:
UV-II: Radiation wave length 320–340 nanometer
UV-AI: Radiation wave length 340–400 nanometer
Nanometer: A wave length unit equals one millionth millimeter.
Mineral filters: Mineral powders of minute particle size (generally about some hundredth micron). While chemical filters extend protection by absorbing radiation, the powders do it mainly by scattering radiation. They are very safe to use and cause no irritation to the skin whatsoever.
Free Radicals: atoms or molecules of uneven structure of electrons. These molecules are extremely reactive and tend to attack different vital elements in the cell such as fats, protein and nuclear acids. The formation of these radicals is strongly stimulated by UV radiation. The anti-oxidant vitamins like vitamin “E” reduce radiation damages to the skin by neutralizing these molecules.
The Ozone Layer: The Ozone layer is 20 – 60 kms above the Earth. It is formed when oxygen comes in contact with UV-C radiation. The Ozone area is capable of filtering all UV-C radiation as well as a considerable part of UV-B, but as it has no effect almost on UV-A, any deterioration of the Ozone layer will mean a significant rise in the UV radiation and therefore an increase in the number of skin cancer cases.
SPF – Sun Protector Factor: A number indicating protection given by a sun screen preparation against UV-B radiation. Such a factor is determined by exposing the skin to a standard UV-B radiation and then by measuring the relative time needed to provoke first signs of irritation in the protected skin (by a sun screen preparation) and the none protected one. The more effective is the preparation the higher is the SPF value. When recommending a sun block preparation to an individual we have to take into consideration his type of skin, its sensitivity, period of exposure to the sun as well as the intensity of radiation. The SPF factor indicates the effectiveness of the preparation against UV-B radiation.
Due to the rising recognition of the fact that the skin must be protected from UV-A radiation as well, Health Authorities in various countries became well aware recently of the urgent need of finding a reliable way to test sun control preparations in respect to UV-A radiation. Australia and Japan are the first countries to adopt a standard test in this regard and any declared preparation against UV-A radiation must comply with. The Australian method requires that any preparation must filter at least 90% of UV-A radiation within wave length of 320-360 nanometer.
