UV light

Question
Does UV light change the surface of bacteria and can therefore be used as a lamp e.g. after cleaning of the nebulizer for irradiation?
Answer
Hello,
UV light can be used for disinfection - important are however dosage and duration, so that one should not simply use an UV lamp, also because UV light can also have unfavourable effects for humans (development of ozone).
