The graph above epitomizes the definition of "Broad Spectrum UVA and UVB Sunscreen" - Notice the flat curve from 290-371nm.

In preparation for human SPF testing, Green Screen underwent preliminary studies for both photostability and SPF value with a contract laboratory that specializes in SPF testing based on FDA guidelines. Results were promising as the in vitro test statistically underestimates the human SPF, with an early Green Screen(tm) formula at SPF 9 and a more advanced formula at SPF 14, very close to the SPF 15 target. Both were completely photostable!

This physical test, based exclusively on UV absorbance, examines only the performance of the UV absorbers, not other ingredients in the formula that preclude damage, such as antioxidants. Kabana aims to have SPF testing on humans accomplished for regulatory labeling purposes by the end of February.

If you're going to get infected by bacteria, it's not the 99.9% that's going to make a home out of you - it's the rare 0.1% that's dangerous. Consumers who purchase and use products that contain antibacterial chemicals, such as triclosan, kill off the weak, harmless bacteria (99.9%) and ensure the really bad 0.1% survive to multiply in your bathroom and elsewhere - sometimes millions per day!

The practice of overusing antibacterial chemicals enriches numbers of dangerous bacteria in normal populations - effectively "selecting" them - which increases our chances of getting sick or infected by strains that antibiotic drugs are increasingly ineffective against. This is not something that the mass marketeers tell you about because sensationalizing that all bacteria are bad sells their product.

Bacteria are everywhere and most are harmless. All of them compete for the same resources to survive, but killing the harmless ones allows the harmful strains to fluorish like fast-growing weeds in a freshly tilled field. A reasonable daily personal care routine using natural soaps is adequate to protect you from these dangerous bacteria. These strains are rare, and we need to keep them that way. Using consumer products labeled as "Antibacterial" is unnecessary and actualy increases our infection risks, yet the solution is easy: Don't purchase consumer products labeled "Antibacterial."
