Firms testing sunscreen that uses nanoparticles

Abstract:
Some sunscreen companies are embracing the emerging field of nanotechnology, which involves the use of nanoparticles that are one-millionth of a millimeter in size. Titanium dioxide and zinc oxide nanoparticles are being used in some sunscreens because they reflect ultraviolet light and their small size makes them transparent.
