DNA-based sunscreen gets more effective with more use
See on Scoop.it - Knowmads, Infocology of the future
One of the hassles involved with using sunscreen is the fact that you shouldn’t just apply it once – depending on who you ask, it should be reapplied at least once every few hours. That isn’t the case, however, with an experimental new coating made from DNA. It actually gets more effective the longer it’s left on the skin. Led by assistant professor of biomedical engineering Guy German, a team at New York’s Binghamton University developed thin and optically transparent crystalline DNA films, then irradiated them with ultraviolet light. It was found that the more UV exposure the films received, the more their optical density increased, and the better they got at absorbing the rays. “Ultraviolet light can actually damage DNA, and that’s not good for the skin,” states German. “We thought, let’s flip it. What happens instead if we actually used DNA as a sacrificial layer? So instead of damaging DNA within the skin, we damage a layer on top of the skin.”

Both CNN and MSNBC aired Michelle Obama’s full speech, but apparently it was too true for Fox News.
Of course Fox didn’t air it.
