Photobiology is the study of the effects of nonionizing radiation on biologic systems. The biologic effect varies with the wavelength region of the radiation. The radiation is absorbed by molecules in skin such as DNA, protein or certain drugs. The molecules are changed chemically into products that initiate biochemical responses in the cells.

光生物学是研究非电离辐射对生物系统的影响。生物效应随辐射的波长区域而变化。辐射被皮肤中的分子如DNA、蛋白质或某些药物吸收。这些分子在化学上转变为引发细胞中生化反应的产物。
