When winter chill strikes, people stay indoors more often, giving airborne pathogens — such as SARS-CoV-2 and influenza — prime opportunities to spread. Germicidal ultraviolet (GUV) lamps can help ...

LEDs emitting light in the range of 200 nm to 400 nm are classified as UV LEDs. Within this range, there are three bands, UV-A with wavelengths from 300 nm to 400 nm, UV-B with wavelengths between 280 ...

While useful for killing pathogens like those that cause covid-19 and the flu, sanitizing ultraviolet lights may cause unwanted chemical reactions that create indoor air pollution. Devices that emit ...

SAN ANTONIO, June 27, 2024 /PRNewswire/ — To support improved patient outcomes and reduce the risk of healthcare-associated infections, the Healthcare Standards Institute (HSI), an American National ...

While useful for killing pathogens including SARS-CoV-2, 222-nanometer UV lights may produce harmful compounds in indoor spaces, and should be used with ventilation, researchers have found. Many ...
