UV sterilization
sterilization">UV sterilization uses ultraviolet (UV) light to kill or inactivate germs, bacteria, and viruses. This method is effective because UV light damages the DNA or RNA of microorganisms, preventing them from replicating and causing harm. UV sterilizers are commonly used in water treatment, air purification, and surface disinfection in hospitals and homes. Unlike traditional chemical disinfectants, UV sterilization leaves no residue, making it a safe and eco-friendly option. However, direct exposure to UV light can be harmful to skin and eyes, so safety precautions are necessary when using UV sterilization devices.
