UV inactivation is increasingly gaining traction among laboratories and manufacturers as a disinfection and decontamination solution. It is a clean and rapid method for either elimination of contaminants or preparation of viruses for vaccine […]
UV LED light has proven to be effective in laboratory settings for disinfection and decontamination purposes, making these processes cheaper, faster, and more reliable. UV LED has now revolutionized large laboratories and institutions, however the […]
UV LED radiation has proven to be an effective and innovative measure for disinfection and decontamination. Particular wavelengths affect different bonds within biological molecules. Therefore, determining what wavelengths are most effective against […]
Researchers have proven that a small dose of UV-C light completely inactivates Sars-CoV-2 (coronavirus)
Great news appear in the Covid-19 prevention research landscape! Recent studies from Boston University have concluded 22 mJ/cm2 of UVC light should be enough dose to approach 6 log reduction of the Sars-CoV-2 virus (also known as corona-virus) that […]
What is currently being used?
Current procedures for vaccine research often utilize gamma radiation to inactivate a virus while leaving host protein structures intact for further analysis like ELISAs. Unfortunately, gamma radiation technology is not […]
Certainly so! The principle behind vaccinations is to trigger an immune response that will provide us with antibodies to prevent infection in the future. This goal can be accomplished through a variety of mechanisms that are encompassed in 4 […]
