Uva
Definition:
(n.) A small pulpy or juicy fruit containing several seeds and having a thin skin, as a grape.
Example Sentences:
(1) UVA and UVB radiation produced a significant increase in the ratio of type III to type I collagen (more than 100% for UVA-irradiated skin and about 60% for UVB-irradiated skin) accompanied by a significantly increased fibronectin biosynthesis (50% or more in all irradiated groups).
(2) Affected individuals were not clinically photosensitive, but their fibroblasts demonstrated gross cytopathic changes, low survival indices and an increased frequency of DNA single strand breaks following exposure to long-wave ultraviolet radiation (UVA).
