Abstract

Selective reflection spectra have been studied for cholesteric matrices doped with certain steroids of vitamin D group, and substantial effect of the dopants upon the helical pitch was noted. Under UV irradiation, shifts of selective reflection peaks were observed. It is argued that the effect studied can be used for monitoring of vitamin D formation reactions induced by UV irradiation, thus being a base of bioequivalent UV dosimetry.
