Findings
Researchers modified titanium dioxide nanoparticles (used in sunscreen) by coating them with a protein that reduced how much they penetrate skin by 89-91%. The coated particles still protected against UV damage and DNA damage just as well as regular titanium dioxide, but stayed on the skin surface instead of being absorbed into cells.
