Researchers at EPFL's Laboratory of Integrated Performance in Design have teamed up with teachers and students from Geneva School of Art and Design to develop a light sensor concept

UV light equipment in biological safety cabinets, germicidal lamps, transluminators, and Wood’s lamps can all have harmful effects

Safe for human exposure, far-UVC light may offer low-cost solution to eradicating airborne viruses in indoor public spaces

A team of scientists from the U.S. Forest Service, U.S. Department of Agriculture, and the University of New Hampshire found that the fungus is highly sensitive to UV light

Currently, most deep-UV lamps are mercury-based. They pose a threat to the environment, and are bulky and inefficient

Large study finds machines that emit the UV light can cut transmission of four major super bugs by a cumulative 30 percent

Nanotech enables powerful and portable sterilization equipment

Plopped into water, a tiny device triggers the formation of chemicals that kill microbes in minutes

Let’s take a look at how UV rays affect your body, and the sorts of built-in chemical defense systems you're working with to stop any potential damage
