Clinical characterization of mycosis fungoides with abnormal light reactions induced by narrow-band UVB therapy: A review of a single-center experience.
J Dermatol

Department of Dermatology, Faculty of Medicine, Academic Assembly, University of Toyama, Toyama, Japan.
Narrow-band UVB (NB-UVB) therapy at a wavelength of 311 nm is often used to treat mycosis fungoides (MF). However, we occasionally encounter cases of erythema induced by low doses of NB-UVB, known as an abnormal light reaction (ALR). We investigated the incidence of ALR in patients with MF and the association between ALR and clinical and laboratory findings.

Article Synopsis
- Excimer light is a specialized form of NB-UVB therapy that operates at a 308 nm wavelength, allowing for targeted treatment of skin conditions.
- It effectively treats conditions like psoriasis, vitiligo, and several other hard-to-treat skin diseases with minimal side effects.
- The article discusses how excimer light works therapeutically and its applications in modern dermatology.
The Conversion and Degradation of Sulphaguanidine under UV and Electron Beam Irradiation Using Fluorescence.
J Fluoresc
March 2024
The FSBIS Institute of Electrophysics, Ural Branch of the Russian Academy of Sciences, Ekaterinburg, 620016, Russia.
The work presents a spectral-luminescent study of the sulfaguanidine transformation in water under a pulsed e-beam and UV irradiation of an UVb-04 bactericidal mercury lamp (from 180 to 275 nm), KrCl (222 nm), XeBr (282 nm) and XeCl (308 nm) excilamps. Fluorescent decay curves have been used in our analysis of the sulfaguanidine decomposition. The conversion of antibiotic under e-beam irradiation for up to 1 min was more than 80%, compared with UV radiation: UVb-04-26%, XeBr - 20%.

Metarhizium pingshaense photolyase expression and virulence to Rhipicephalus microplus after UV-B exposure.
J Basic Microbiol
January 2024
Departamento de Parasitologia Animal, Instituto de Veterinária, UFRRJ, Seropédica, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
The current study examined the impact of ultraviolet (UV)-B radiation in Metarhizium pingshaense blastospores' photolyase expression and their virulence against Rhipicephalus microplus. Blastospores were exposed to UV under laboratory and field conditions. Ticks were treated topically with fungal suspension and exposed to UV-B in the laboratory for three consecutive days.
