[...] le rayonnement atteignant la surface terrestre est composé de 95 pour cent d’ultraviolets A et de 5 pour cent d’ultraviolets B. Bien que ces derniers soient moins délétères que les ultraviolets C pour l’ADN des cellules de peau, ils y déclenchent des réactions chimiques qui créent des «photoproduits». De plus, les ultraviolets A engendrent la production de radicaux libres. Ces molécules – photoproduits et radicaux libres – peuvent provoquer des mutations, voire des cancers. 3, record 1, French, - photoproduit
