What Protective Measures are Used Against Harmful Wavelengths?
Protective measures against harmful wavelengths of radiation include the use of barriers, such as lead shields for X-rays, and personal protective equipment like sunscreen for ultraviolet exposure. Toxicologists also advocate for regulatory measures, such as setting exposure limits and developing guidelines for safe use. Public education on minimizing exposure, such as avoiding prolonged sun exposure during peak hours, is also a key strategy in reducing the risks associated with harmful wavelengths.
