The GL136 and the GL236 are stainless-steel light system models. The germicidal UV light systems help control airborne germs, viruses, bacteria, mold, odors, gases, and allergens commonly distributed ...

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 ...

For nearly a century, scientists have known ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI or UV-C) energy deactivates airborne and surface-bound viruses, mycoplasma, bacteria, and fungi. Light in the 253.7 ...

How ultraviolet light (UV) works as a disinfection technology depends upon the wavelength(s) being employed. The UVC band with a wavelength of 200-280nm has emerged as a viable solution for interior ...

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 ...

Perhaps the first randomized trial of an air cleaning device for nursing homes showed no significant impact on the primary endpoint for acute respiratory infection incidence. A secondary analysis did, ...

Implementing germicidal ultraviolet light in HVAC systems at the AC coil can eliminate these microorganisms and reduce healthcare-associated infections, leading to significant reduction of ...

In another study from Airmid Healthgroup (AHG), UV lamp systems demonstrated airstream microbe inactivation in an ASTM/AHAM style environmental test chamber that simulated a typical building’s indoor ...

Ultraviolet light systems have started to gain popularity as a way to clean large swathes of schools quickly and frequently. For example, according to a February EdWeek Reseach Center survey, 13 ...

A COVID-19 vaccine may be months away, but there’s a new weapon in the fight against the pandemic. And it’s been around for generations: ultraviolet light, or UV for short. "It would work on surfaces, ...
