Photochemical Protection of Riboflavin and Tetrapyrroles with Light Scattering Technology

The effectiveness of titanium dioxide (TiO?) in polyethylene films at preventing the photooxidation of riboflavin in a model solution was evaluated. Five different TiO? loads (0.5-8.0 wt%), each at 3 different thicknesses (50-100 um) were evaluated. A photochemical reactor, equipped with a 350W merc...
