Ultraviolet (UV) light has been well studied for use as an antimicrobial technology.
It reliably eradicates bacteria, viruses, and fungi by destroying their DNA. Within the UV light spectrum, UV-C light has been shown to sanitize most effectively and has developed a history of use for disinfection and sanitization of drinking water, industrial surfaces, and more.
UV light has also become popular for disinfection in medical facilities for its ability to eliminate the spore-forming bacterium Clostridium difficile, which is the culprit in many infections acquired in hospitals.
