The action spectrum for folic acid photodegradation in aqueous solutions

Moan, Johan

ADS

Abstract

The action spectrum of FA demonstrates that UVB and UVA degrade folic acid. Its action spectrum is not identical to its absorption or fluorescence excitation spectra. Protecting skin against UV radiation by sunscreens may help to protect folic acid in human blood.
