Abstract
Background/purpose: Clothing is an important protective layer used to reduce UV exposures to the skin surface. However, not all UV exposure is linked to detrimental health effects with some exposure to UVB wave lengths below 316 nm required for the synthesis of pre-vitamin D3. The aim of the current research was to investigate the effect of fabric type, color, fit and wetness on the transmission of pre-vitamin D3 effective UV through garments during simulated wear, in a high UV exposure environment.
