DOI: 10.1186/s40360-019-0353-3
Abstract: Background Ultraviolet (UV) radiation is the main exogenous inductor of skin damage and so photoprotection is important to control skin disorders. The Antarctic moss Sanionia uncinata is an important source of antioxidants and the photoprotective… read more here.
