Abstract

Background/purpose: Sunscreens are a critical component of photoprotection, shielding the skin from the harmful effects of solar radiation. However, current sunscreens have limitations, including insufficient filters with long-wavelength ultraviolet A (UVA) and visible light (VL) coverage. This review briefly discusses the mechanisms of sunscreen filters, newly developed filters that improve broad-spectrum protection, and examines recent advances in sunscreen formulations that enhance efficacy.

Methods: A targeted literature review was conducted using databases such as Pubmed to identify recent studies published on advancements in sunscreen filters.

Results: Recent developments include novel filters with extended UVA and VL coverage. Additives such as antioxidants and anti-inflammatory agents are also being integrated to bolster skin protection.

Conclusion: Although traditional sunscreens have limitations, ongoing innovations in filter development and formulation science are progressively addressing existing gaps in photoprotection.

防晒霜：最新的防晒霜过滤器和配方。

背景/目的：防晒霜是光防护的重要组成部分，可以保护皮肤免受太阳辐射的有害影响。然而，目前的防晒霜有局限性，包括对长波紫外线（UVA）和可见光（VL）覆盖的过滤能力不足。这篇综述简要地讨论了防晒霜过滤器的机制，新开发的过滤器，提高广谱保护，并检查了最近的进展，在防晒配方，以提高功效。方法：使用Pubmed等数据库进行有针对性的文献综述，以确定最近发表的有关防晒过滤器进展的研究。结果：最近的发展包括扩展UVA和VL覆盖的新型过滤器。抗氧化剂和抗炎剂等添加剂也被整合到加强皮肤保护中。结论：尽管传统防晒霜存在局限性，但在过滤器开发和配方科学方面的持续创新正在逐步解决现有的光防护差距。

期刊介绍： The journal is a forum for new information about the direct and distant effects of electromagnetic radiation (ultraviolet, visible and infrared) mediated through skin. The divisions of the editorial board reflect areas of specific interest: aging, carcinogenesis, immunology, instrumentation and optics, lasers, photodynamic therapy, photosensitivity, pigmentation and therapy. Photodermatology, Photoimmunology & Photomedicine includes original articles, reviews, communications and editorials. Original articles may include the investigation of experimental or pathological processes in humans or animals in vivo or the investigation of radiation effects in cells or tissues in vitro. Methodology need have no limitation; rather, it should be appropriate to the question addressed.
