According to the CDC and NSF International, a lot of factors influence how effective UV light is — most importantly is intensity and how long the surface is exposed.
UV light is subdivided into three types depending on its wavelength: A, B, and C. UVA contains the long-wave UV light that reaches the surface of Earth, whereas shorter-wave UVB and UVC are mostly ...
At the same UV light intensity it takes to kill 99.9% of SARS-CoV-2 in 20 seconds, a person could be safely exposed to 222-nanometer light for up to one hour and 20 minutes.
The 365nm models come with integrally filtered long-wave UV tubes (BLB), which block the visible light and let the UV through. The 254nm models come with filter assemblies.
Lindner, who has received previous funding for work on UV light and bats, is experimenting with short-wave UV light that he said "packs more punch" than the long-wave UV light used for detection work.
Created in 1994, and now the nation’s largest independent eyewear brand, Spy Optic created the Happy Lens line of eyewear to block the sun’s harmful UV rays and short-wave blue light.
However, the physicists in Jena use extremely short-wave UV light instead of long-wave infrared light for their OCT. "This is due to the size of the structures we want to image," says Felix Wiesner.
VERIFY: No, a simple wave of a UV light will not kill bacteria and viruses like COVID-19 According to the CDC and NSF International, a lot of factors influence how effective UV light is — most ...
