The World's Most Unavoidable Carcinogen
Ohio Ag Connection - 07/27/2016
When we go outside, we expose ourselves to the most common carcinogen of all: ultraviolet (UV) rays in sunlight. Most of us know we should apply sunscreen to protect our skin, but some of us forget and suffer a flaky, irritated sunburn in return.
In this week's American Chemical Society's (ACS) Reactions, we highlight the chemistry behind UV radiation, melanin and sunburns. See the video here: https://youtu.be/7ZXvngquyT4.
ACS is a nonprofit organization chartered by the U.S. Congress. With nearly 157,000 members, ACS is the world's largest scientific society and a global leader in providing access to chemistry-related research through its multiple databases, peer-reviewed
journals and scientific conferences. Its main offices are in Washington, D.C., and Columbus, Ohio.
