Resource for Far UV- 222nm Inactivation Dose Rates

The National Library of Medicine has compiled a fantastic resource highlighting the dose rates required to inactivate various pathogens. It covers the benefits of 200nm-230nm vs. traditional 254nm technology.

The unique highlight of this article is in the conclusion section. Of all frequencies, 222nm has the most potential to eliminate various pathogens. The article specifically notes that if you can reach 100 mj/cm2, you can be effective against almost any pathogen, and that's now possible with the new skin (479mj/cm2) and eye (160 mj/cm2) Threshold Value Limits!

Update on 222nm Exposure and ACGIH Eye Exposure Safety

Finally! We get some real world explanation of TLVs (Threshold Limit Values) and effects on eye radiation using 222 nm technology. A recently published article by the Council for Optical Radiation Measurements titled "Expected ACGIH Eye Exposure When Using 222 nm Ceiling Mounted Sources" gives some vital updates all 222nm users and future users should be aware of.

Far UV-C is the answer to our Pandemic fears

Could Far UV-C (222) help the fight against not only Covid-19 and its many variants, but Monkeypox as well? The answer is yes, yes it can. This article from Biospace.com explains Far UV-C and how it inactivates pathogens. Being that Monkeypox...

222 is the Future of Disinfection at UVC

    For decades, UV-C wavelengths of light have been used to disinfect everything from water to walls. In more recent years 254 nm wavelengths of UV-C light have been the standard in the fight against pathogens. However, there is a...
