TO American scientists came to such preliminary conclusions, writes LiveScience Researchers from new york state university Stony Brook decided to compare how radiation is energy-saving and Conventional lamps affect human skin cells. For this they conducted an experiment exposing these cells (living people in experiments not involved) the effects of radiation from both types of lamps. IN the result, it turned out that energy-saving lamps emit much more ultraviolet radiation that can damage cells skin and, with prolonged intense exposure, even cause cancer. Cells exposed to energy-saving lamps were strongly damaged, while the cells irradiated with a conventional lamp remained healthy. “The results (studies) have shown that we can actually cause cell death, “said Dr. Marcia Simon, a dermatologist from the University of New York. Manufacturers energy-saving lamps have already responded to the publication of the results studies stating that “the level of emitted ultraviolet radiation is within normal limits. ”
