Photoprotection : Part I. Photoprotection by naturally occurring, physical, and systemic agents - 14/11/13
Abstract |
The acute and chronic consequences of ultraviolet radiation on human skin are reviewed.

New systemic agents, including Polypodium leucotomos, afamelanotide, and antioxidants have potential as photoprotective agents.
