  2. Ultraviolet germicidal irradiation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ultraviolet_germicidal...

    UV treatment is rapid and, in terms of primary energy use, approximately 20,000 times more efficient than boiling. [citation needed] UV disinfection is most effective for treating high-clarity, purified reverse osmosis distilled water. Suspended particles are a problem because microorganisms buried within particles are shielded from the UV ...

    Low power consumption of semiconductors introduce UV disinfection systems that utilized small solar cells in remote or Third World applications. [2] By 2019, LEDs made up 41.4% of UV light sales, up from 19.2% in 2014 [3] The UV-C LED global market is expected to rise from $223m in 2017 to US$991m in 2023. [4]

    Among related approaches, the psoralen derivative Amotosalen, activated by long-wavelength UV light, is used in Europe for disinfection of plasma and platelets. [105] However, this represents a photochemical reaction between the psoralen nucleus and viral nucleic acids, rather than a purely photodynamic effect.

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Far-UVC

    UV-B, predominantly responsible for the harmful effects of sunlight, poses the highest risk for erythema, photokeratitis, sunburn and skin cancer. [16] [17] [18] While longer UV-C wavelengths and UV-A can also cause damage, their effects are less severe than UV-B. In contrast, far-UVC has shown remarkably different results.

  6. Blood irradiation therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Blood_irradiation_therapy

    This method is used for the ultraviolet (UV) blood irradiation (UVBI) by UV lamps. In the transcutaneous method, the radiation goes through the skin, by placing a device on the outside of the skin. In the intravenous method, a device is inserted into a large blood vessel. The laser light is monochromatic.

  7. Light therapy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Light_therapy

    A 1995 study showed that green light therapy at doses of 350 lux produces melatonin suppression and phase shifts equivalent to 10,000 lux white light therapy, [63] [64] but another study published in May 2010 suggests that the blue light often used for SAD treatment should perhaps be replaced by green or white illumination, because of a ...
