Introduction
UV lamps are basic lamps that emit ultraviolet radiation with a wavelength ranging between 400 nm and 100nm. UV light is basically classified into three wavelengths: UV-A, UV-B and UV-C. This report covers UV-C, also known as germicidal UV – with wave length ranging between 100 nm to 280 nm – and its purpose is to disinfect or deactivate the DNA and RNA of bacteria, viruses and other pathogens, thus inhibiting their ability to multiply.
