Sun protection factors determination for cosmetic emulsions
Slechanová, Veronika ; Jugl, Adam (referee) ; Smilek, Jiří (advisor)
The bachelor thesis deals with the anatomy and physiology of the skin, ultraviolet rays, sunscreens and current methods used to measure the value of sun protection factor. One of the goals of the thesis is to get the overview of the UV filters currently widely used in cosmetic products and giving them the required protection against the sun. The obtained knowledge was subsequently used for the determination of the sun protection factors in selected sunscreens by in vitro methods. The measurement provided satisfying results comparable with the values given on the label of the tested products. However, it is still necessary to optimize the methodology even more in order to obtain data with lower deviations and especially with much higher reproducibility.

Active ingredients in sun cosmetics
Jochimová, Eva ; Vránová, Dana (referee) ; Zemanová, Jana (advisor)
Active substances in sun cosmetics mean quantity and properties of UV-filters that absorb rays in UVA or in UVB areas. In the United States of America there are they considered as pharmaceuticals, however in European Union are they taken behind cosmetics. Their usage is very important, because the sun radiation can be very dangerous. Hazard of negative influences increases largely by downgrade of atmosphere and above all by enlargement of ozone hole. UVB and UVA rays penetrate into the skin where they can be a cause of different disorders. They evocate simply as far as heavily curable photodermatosis, skin ageing and cutaneous carcinoma in worse case.
