Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (3)

  • Amount of singlet oxygen generated by the left forearm skin (2 cm^2) after exposure to UVA radiation dose of 0.33 J/cm2

    5 minutes at first visit

  • Amount of singlet oxygen generated by the left forearm skin (2 cm^2) after exposure to UVA radiation dose of 8.25 J/cm2

    5 minutes at first visit

  • Amount of singlet oxygen generated by the left forearm skin (2 cm^2) after exposure to UVA radiation dose of 16.5 J/cm2

    5 minutes at first visit

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • Difference in singlet oxygen (as measured by singlet oxygen molecule numbers) generated between individuals of different skin Fitzpatrick skin types

    Within 24 hours

  • Difference in singlet oxygen (as measured by thymidine dimer %) generated between individuals of different skin Fitzpatrick skin types

    Within 24 hours

  • Difference in singlet oxygen generation with avobenzone and zinc oxide sunscreens (sun protection factor 30 and 2mg/cm^2 applied for each) vs control (no sunscreen) after exposure to 444.1millijoules (mJ) /cm2 UVA exposure

    Within 24 hours

  • Difference in singlet oxygen generation with avobenzone and zinc oxide sunscreens (sun protection factor 30 and 2mg/cm^2 applied for each) vs control (no sunscreen) after exposure to 444.1millijoules (mJ) /cm2 UVA exposure

    Within 24 hours

  • Change in appearance of skin pigmentation as measured by colorimetry after UVA exposure

    Within 24 hours

Study Arms (1)

Zinc Oxide, Avobenzone, No Product

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants have zinc oxide, avobenzone, and no product applied to 3 different spots on the forearm and singlet oxygen is measured after UV exposure.

Drug: Zinc Oxide and Avobenzone

Interventions

Zinc Oxide is applied to one area of the forearm, Avobenzone is applied to another area of the forearm.

Zinc Oxide, Avobenzone, No Product
