Research of germicidal efficiency of air and open surfaces disinfection by pulsed ultraviolet light of continuous spectrum

Abstract

The study presents experimental data on germicidal efficiency of air and open surfaces disinfection by pulsed UV light of continuous spectrum with respect to Staphylococcus aureus. Bactericidal doses for objects disinfection with 90.0-99.99% efficiency are determined. Weak influence of surface material (plastic, metal and tile) and organic load on disinfection efficiency is demonstrated.
