    Figure 1.

    The emission spectra of the 3 experimental UVB emitting devices. Three Heliomed model (Heliomed3-E1, E2 and E3) lamps (JK-Holding GMBH, Windhagen, Germany) were used in this study. The physical irradiance increased from Heliomed3-E1 to E3. Thus, the MED time decreased from lamps E1 to E3. The physical irradiance and IEC Erythemal Effective Irradiance of the lamp E3 was more focused on the wavelength of 297 nm.

    Figure 5.

    The relative conversion of 7-DHC to Vitamin D3 in different skin types compared to the conversion of 7-DHC to previtamin D3 in the positive control ampule for all lamps. The figure shows that the conversion of 7-DHC to vitamin D3 in skin type II was about 90% compared to the ampule.

    Figure 6.

    The comparison of the biological response of skin types to UV irradiation for all lamps. The ratio of 8-OHdG and NO production to vitamin D3 in skin type IV was lower than that in skin type 2.
