222 nm far-UVC light markedly reduces the level of infectious airborne virus in an occupied room
An emerging intervention for control of airborne-mediated pandemics and epidemics is whole-room far-UVC (200–235 nm). Laboratory studies have shown that 222-nm light inactivates airborne pathogens, potentially without harm to exposed occupants. While encouraging results have been reported in benchtop studies and … Read More
Far-UVC Light Can Virtually Eliminate Airborne Virus in an Occupied Room
Far-UVC light is a promising new technology for reducing airborne virus levels in occupied indoor spaces, but its effectiveness has not been evaluated in real-life scenarios. A study by Columbia researchers now shows that far-UVC light inactivated nearly all (>99%) … Read More
