UV-C 照射对于多种细菌和病毒来说是一种有效的消毒剂。因此,UV-C 处理与化学擦拭相结合是医疗设施中常见的清洁方案。鉴于社会上严重细菌和病毒病原体的增加,获得环保的消毒方法越来越受到关注。为此,我们利用易于使用的组件设计、构建并验证了 UV-C 消毒系统。为了提高 UV-C 强度,外壳内部涂有铬漆。该系统使用蜡样芽孢杆菌(一种革兰氏阳性内生孢子形成细菌)进行验证。 (C) 2020 年美国光学学会根据 OSA 开放获取出版协议的条款
UV-C exposure is an effective disinfectant for a range of bacteria and viruses. As such, UV-C treatment, in combination with a chemical wipe, is a common cleaning protocol in medical facilities. Given the increase in severe bacterial and viral agents in society, having access to environmentally friendly disinfectant methods is of increasing interest. In response, we designed, constructed, and validated a UV-C disinfection system from readily accessible components. To improve the UV-C intensity, the enclosure interior was coated with chrome paint. The system is validated using Bacillus cereus, a gram-positive endospore-forming bacteria. (C) 2020 Optical Society of America under the terms of the OSA Open Access Publishing Agreement
