While there already are organic materials that change color in response to ultraviolet radiation exposure, those color-changes involve reorganization of the material's molecular structure, so it can ...

What if you could *see* UV radiation before it has the potential to cause harm? A novel color-changing ‘living’ sensor could make this a reality, revealing exposure to damaging UV light and paving the ...

Researchers at the Technical University of Munich (TUM) have developed a coating using proteins and bacteria that could enable the development of T-shirts that warn of excessive sun exposure or labels ...

From smartphone apps to smart wearables, there are a variety of high-tech ways we can make sure we’re not being exposed to too many harmful ultraviolet wavelengths by being out in the sun. A new ...
