The availability of a local dermatological photobiology facility has proved to be of great value in the management of patients with photodermatoses, especially those with chronic actinic dermatitis. It is our belief that clinically useful results can only be achieved if careful attention is paid to technical factors such as radiation measurement.

Vitiligo is a chronic skin condition characterized by the loss of melanocytes, resulting in white patches on the skin. While its exact cause is unknown, it's believed to be an autoimmune disorder involving genetic, environmental, and immunologic factors. Various treatments, including topical drugs, phototherapy, and surgery, exist, but further research is needed for more targeted therapies.

Mycosporine-like amino acids (MAAs) are a unique class of UV-screening bioactive molecules with potent antioxidants and photoprotective properties, synthesized by various species of cyanobacteria in different habitats. The cyanobacterial biofilms play a crucial driver in the development of ecological communities. The current study examined the existence of the photoprotective MAAs in a novel epilithic cyanobacterium Lyngbya sp.
