Germicidal UV Lamps
Victory Lighting Ultraviolet germicidal lamps are highly efficient emitters of ultra-violet (253.7nm) light which has very effective germicidal properties and is being used as part of the drive to combat the current crop of infectious diseases.
Although the science behind germicidal UV has been around for a long time, it hasn't been used until recently. The use of Ultraviolet systems is growing, which has seen new products entering the market place and these products are suitable for a whole range of industries, not just hospitals.
UV-C light is a germicidal, it deactivates the DNA of bacteria, virus and other pathogens and so destroys their ability to multiply and cause disease. UV-C light causes damage to the nucleic acid of micro-organisms by forming covalent bonds between certain adjacent bases in the DNA. The formation of these bonds prevents the DNA from replicating and when the organism tries to replicate, it can not and dies.
Studies are currently being held to assess the effectivity of UV light on COVID-19, but UV disinfection has already been seen to be successful on treatment on other Coronaviruses, such as SARS and MERS, which have similar characteristics.
