We are faced with a global epidemic of myopia (short-sightedness) because we are deprived of deep violet light (360-400 nm). Myopia is projected to rise from 23 to 50 percent of the world’s ...

When the spiderlings matured, some began spinning dragline silk that glowed a vibrant red under UV light. According to the study, this outcome provided the first concrete evidence that CRISPR can ...

Violet filtration is an important step in improving quality of vision under low-light conditions, including night driving, and improving low-light reading performance, which we have not observed ...

The molecular weight of the Nephila clavata spider dragline was determined to be 272±14 kDa using a SDS-PAGE method. The effects of ultraviolet (UV) irradiation on the molecular weight of the ...

In further experiments in the lab, the team demonstrated how the molecule could be absorbed by cells, with violet light exposure then used to precisely control the viability and mobility of those ...

The most recent research suggests that it may be the lack of visible violet light indoors that causes the problem and if we spend time outdoors in daylight we are exposed to ample violet light.
