Importance of Ultraviolet-C (UV-C) Emitter Configuration for the Attenuation of Staphylococcus aureus and Candida auris Pathogens

The choice of UV-C emitter configuration can impact <i>S. aureus</i> and <i>C. auris</i> attenuation when there is indirect exposure to the pathogen. Emitter configuration should be considered as an important parameter for future UV-C technological assessments.

Abstract

The choice of UV-C emitter configuration can impact <i>S. aureus</i> and <i>C. auris</i> attenuation when there is indirect exposure to the pathogen. Emitter configuration should be considered as an important parameter for future UV-C technological assessments.
