Introduction — continued
UV-C light sanitizes micro-organisms and biological pollutants, including
viruses, bacteria, germs, mold, dust mite and fl ea eggs by penetrating their
cell membranes and attacking and deactivating their cellular DNA, stopping
their reproductive capabilities and killing them.
The scientifi c community has long known that UV-C light acts as a
natural sanitization system. Hospitals, food processing facilities, scientifi c
laboratories, water treatment plants and air handling systems use UV-C light
to eliminate up to 99.9% of contaminants and germs.
