New on YouTube, Testing UV absorption eyewear and sunscreen with a deuterium light source


Recommended Posts

Thanks for sharing. The discussion about sunscreens and the issues with sun exposure made my skin crawl though. "SPF is of course a marketing tool", is not something that the general public should be hearing from any credible scientist. And talking about % absorption through his work, in relation to the relative SPF scores, was completely misleading to the general public and the method he used certainly was not the way SPF scores are calculated. Also insinuating that UVA is not what you have to worry about with sun exposure, it's just the UVB, again wrong and very misleading. No mention of the stray light effects on CCD spectrometers for the OD measurements either. Not good.

The phrase "not scientific" applied to the measurements was mentioned frequently throughout the video ...
