Sunscreen protection assessment methodologies have been evolving in tandem with the innovation and evolution of sunscreen products themselves; from initial human testing in the Swiss Alps, to laboratory testing with high intensity solar simulators, to spectrophotometers with modern CCD array photocells and diffuse reflectance spectroscopy techniques. The progress in the science leads regulatory development of standard methods, and provides new and improved ways to assess sunscreen protection properties. This review scans much of the history of the development of these methods and highlights the latest development in non-invasive sunscreen testing as an opportunity to improve accuracy while eliminating human UV exposures.
防晒评估方法一直随着防晒产品自身的创新与发展而不断演进；从最初在瑞士阿尔卑斯山进行的人体测试，到使用高强度太阳模拟器进行实验室测试，再到配备现代电荷耦合器件（CCD）阵列光电管和漫反射光谱技术的分光光度计。科学上的进步引领了标准方法的监管发展，并提供了新的、更好的方式来评估防晒性能。本综述梳理了这些方法发展的大部分历史，并强调了非侵入性防晒测试的最新进展，将其视为提高准确性同时消除人体紫外线暴露的契机。
