Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection
Ultraviolet (UV) disinfection is a method that uses UV light, a type of radiation invisible to the eye, to kill or inactivate harmful microorganisms like bacteria and viruses. When these pathogens absorb UV light, their DNA or RNA is damaged, preventing them from reproducing and causing infections. This technology is commonly used in water treatment, air purification, and surface sanitation. UV disinfection is effective, chemical-free, and leaves no harmful residues, making it a safe option for ensuring cleaner environments, especially in healthcare settings and public spaces.
