Irradiation of UVC LED at 277 nm inactivates coronaviruses by photodegradation of spike protein
2021-06-03
Abstract excerpt
<h4>SUMMARY</h4> To interrupt SARS-CoV-2 transmission chains, Ultraviolet-C (UVC) irradiation has emerged as a potential disinfection tool to aid in blocking the spread of coronaviruses. While conventional 254-nm UVC mercury lamps have been used for disinfection purposes, other UVC wavelengths have emerged as attractive alternatives but a direct comparison of these tools is lacking with the inherent mechanistic p...
