Mitochondrial health is an indicator of overall cell health
Healthy mitochondria exhibit a difference in electrical potential across the lipid bilayer that surrounds them, and some fluorescent dyes will accumulate inside mitochondria as long as this potential difference is maintained.

Have always felt it was a dimming! Or, more parasitic...like a theft of light energy! The mitochondria need the lipid bilayer to be highly charged. Something is stopping that from happening. Crystalization???
Laser-induced crystallization of anodic TiO2 nanotube layers - RSC Advances (RSC Publishing)
In this study, crystallization of amorphous TiO2 nanotube (TNT) layers upon optimized laser annealing is shown. The resulting anatase TNT layers do not show any signs of deformation or melting. The crystallinity of the laser annealed TNT layers was investigated using X-ray diffraction, Raman spectro..

Electro-spray deposited TiO2 bilayer films and their recyclable photocatalytic self-cleaning strategy | Scientific Reports
Recyclable titanium dioxide (TiO2)-based photocatalytic self-cleaning films (SCFs) having a bilayer structure were prepared and assessed. These SCFs comprised two layers of fibers fabricated using an electrospinning process. The self-cleaning layer was made of acrylonitrile–butadiene–sty..

Titanium dioxide (TiO2), one of the more commonly used physical UV light blockers, can react to create free radicals, which may react with and damage DNA and lead to mutations which may cause or contribute to cancer.
In these experiments, specific light sources were shown to activate the HIV gene and/or promote viral replication. UVC was the most potent activator.
According to [47, 48] , UV radiation mediates its biological effects on biomembranes predominantly via the reaction of ROS on the cell membrane, leading to the deterioration of the membrane lipids, rearrangement of the phospholipid bilayer, and pore formation.
During the coating process, cadmium migrates into the shell, contracting the core diameter to about 2.5 nm and shifting the emitted light into the blue. Lee's quantum dots emit true UV radiation, at about 377 nm. “We can go to much shorter wavelengths than people generally expected from quantum dots,”
God bless.
