Scientific research confirms the effectiveness of UV-C light in destroying microorganisms
RHODE UVC Sterilizers vs SARS-COV 2 coronavirus
Research done by teams of dr. Miriam E.R Darnell and dr. Shu-Ming Duan confirm that UV-C waves effectively eliminate the twin to SARS-CoV2 – SARS-CoV1 coronavirus.
Research by Dr. Miriam E.R. Darnell
Dr. Miriam E.R. team Darnella from the National Institute of Allergy and Infectious Diseases in the US conducted a study of agents that destroy SARS CoV1 virus.
From the tested: temperature above 75 ° C, strong acids> pH 8, formalin, glutaraldehyde, UV-B and UV-C rays – this UV-C irradiation showed the greatest effectiveness in combating the SARS CoV virus.
UV-C rays after just 6 minutes of exposure reduced the reproduction of SARS-CoV virus by 400 times, and after 15 minutes completely deactivated it.
Research by dr. Shu-Ming Duan
SThe effectiveness of UVC light in destroying the SARS CoV virus has been confirmed by a team of scientists from the Chinese Institute of Infectious Disease Control and Prevention under the leadership of dr. Shu-Ming Duan.
Duan irradiated the SARS CoV virus with UVC rays of lower power and from a greater distance than Darnell. The conclusions of the study published in Biomedical and Environmental Sciences read:
UV-C irradiation of the virus placed on the culture medium for 60 minutes destroyed SARS CoV infectivity to undetectable levels..

RHODE UVC sterilizers vs. other viruses, bacteria and fungi
Flow sterilizers with UV-C radiators have been used to disinfect rooms for many years and there is a rich bibliography confirming their high efficiency.
Research of the Medical University of Warsaw
In the Department and Medical Microbiology Department of the Medical University of Warsaw, the sensitivity of various bacterial strains isolated from patients with difficult to heal wounds to UV-C rays was assessed.
65 strains of the bacteria Escherichia coli, Pseudomonas aeruginosa, Staphulococus aureus and others were used for the study..
Tests showed that UV-C irradiation for 105 seconds eliminated the multiplication of antibiotic-resistant bacteria in the 100% range100%
Research of the M. Skłodowska Curie Institute
The aim of the research carried out at the Oncology Center of the M. Skłodowska Institute was to determine the biocidal effectiveness of a single-function UV-C flow sterilizer with 60W and 90W radiators.
Plates with bacterial and fungal cultures were placed at the air inlet and their quantity was measured at the outlet with an RCS Air Sampler measuring apparatus..
Research results show that 90W UV-C flow sterilizers destroy bacteria by 100%, while fungi are eliminated at 39% to 100%
ITFiM research of the Lodz University of Technology
At the Institute of Fermentation Technology and Microbiology at the Lodz University of Technology, a several-day test of the effectiveness of a single-function UV-C flow sterilizer was carried out for a room with a volume of 60 m3.
Biocidal effectiveness was tested over a period of 4 to 72 hours of operation of the device and at a distance of 0.6 m and 3 m from the device. Routine operations were carried out in the room.
After 8 hours, at a distance of 3 m from the working sterilizer, reduction of bacteria in air by 73% was observed, after 24 hours the number of bacteria decreased by 87%.
IBPRS research
At the Institute of Agricultural and Food Biotechnology, the bactericidal effectiveness of a direct action lamp equipped with 2 x 36 W radiators was assessed.
Plates with Sallmonella typhimurium, Escherisch Cola, Staphylococcus aureus, Listeria Monocytogenes were irradiated from a distance of 1 meter for 1 minute, 4 minutes and 15 minutes.
Result: After 1 minute of exposure, a decrease in the number of bacteria tested was observed from 93.4% to 99.8%. After 4 minutes, microbial reduction reached 100%.
