Transmission of Pathogens Throughout Healthcare Facilities - May 3, 2016

As one of the leading causes of death in the United States, healthcare associated infections are a top priority for infection control in healthcare facilities. However, the rate of infectious pathogens and bacteria still continues to increase. By understanding how infections spread, healthcare facilities can directly focus on ways to improve infection control practices to reduce contamination.  

With greater knowledge on infection transmission and updated technology, such as no-touch technology and UVC disinfection, facilities can implement these extra tools to address the problem of contamination. UVC Cleaning Systems adds an extra layer of disinfection so difficult to remove bacteria are eradicated quickly and efficiently.

Finally! We get some real world explanation of TLVs (Threshold Limit Values) and effects on eye radiation using 222 nm technology. A recently published article by the Council for Optical Radiation Measurements titled "Expected ACGIH Eye Exposure When Using 222 nm Ceiling Mounted Sources" gives some vital updates all 222nm users and future users should be aware of.

Far UV-C is the answer to our Pandemic fears

Could Far UV-C (222) help the fight against not only Covid-19 and its many variants, but Monkeypox as well? The answer is yes, yes it can. This article from Biospace.com explains Far UV-C and how it inactivates pathogens. Being that Monkeypox...

222 is the Future of Disinfection at UVC

    For decades, UV-C wavelengths of light have been used to disinfect everything from water to walls. In more recent years 254 nm wavelengths of UV-C light have been the standard in the fight against pathogens. However, there is a...
