The X1-1-UV-3726 radiometer enables the effectiveness of UV germicidal irradiation (UVGI) to be accurately determined for both low pressure mercury (254nm) germicidal lamps and UV-C LEDs. Related To: ...

Despite the well-established (and continuously growing) body of evidence that links sun exposure and skin cancer, beaches become speckled with millions of lounge chairs and sun-searchers each year.

TESTA Analytical Solutions has introduced a remote cell version of its Rapid Scanning UV Detector kit, allowing this elegant OEM technology to be integrated into a wider range of industrial ...

Integrating spheres are widely used to measure the total light output (radiant or luminous flux) of light sources such as lamps, luminaires and LEDs, but few (if any) come calibrated for measuring the ...

The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has completed significant upgrades to two key instruments serving what the agency calls “critical national needs”. The devices measure ...

Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is a crucial metric for assessing the organic pollution load in water, reflecting the amount of oxygen required to oxidise organic compounds. Ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) ...

An icon in the shape of a lightning bolt. Impact Link Hospitals have embraced ultraviolet (UV) lights as a cleaning tool for years, using large, industrial-grade machines to decontaminate rooms. Now, ...
