Influence of Ultraviolet Light, Righting Response, and Community Structure in Aquatic Turtles
… essential to the uptake of dietary calcium, UV-B light is considered important for growth in these animals. I studied the effects of UV-B light bulbs on growth in slider turtles (Trachemys scripta: N = 243) from hatching to eight months of age. Growth was defined as the difference between initial …

Design, fabrication and characterisation of ultraviolet light-emitting diodes for biomedical applications
The efficiencies of ultraviolet (UV) light-emitting diodes (LEDs) significantly lag behind those of their blue counterparts, owing to a variety of electrical and optical challenges. There is a marked dip in performance in the wavelength range ∼320 − 340 nm, due to the difficulty in realising a high …
