Filters for ultraviolet sterilization light sources
Principles
The cells of bacteria and other organisms contain DNA (deoxyribonucleic acid), which carries their genetic information. This DNA has an absorption spectrum in the ultraviolet light region (and especially in the UV-C region), with an absorption maximum at around 260 nm. It is thought that when DNA is irradiated with ultraviolet light in the UV-C region, the DNA that absorbs the light receives damage that inhibits the cell division and cell growth, which results in the inability to proliferate and to death.
Features
These are filters that can efficiently transmit ultraviolet rays in the UV-C region, which is the region with high bactericidal effect, and can selectively transmit specific wavelengths (and block unwanted wavelengths). We will respond to your requests regarding wavelengths, transmittance, stop bands, etc.
