Studies were designed to evaluate the effectiveness of pulsed modulated UV light waveforms for killing bacteria. Exposure of five strains of bacteria to the modulated information encoded in the light decreased the colony population from a confluent lawn to less than 20 colonies. However, approximately 2,000 colonies survived treatment with the same intensity and time of exposure to UV light lacking the modulated information.
研究旨在评估脉冲调制紫外光波形对杀灭细菌的有效性。将五种细菌菌株暴露于光中编码的调制信息下,菌落数量从密集的菌苔减少到少于20个菌落。然而,用相同强度且暴露时间相同但缺乏调制信息的紫外光处理后,约有2000个菌落存活下来。
