Evaluation of the decontamination efficacy of a portable air cleaner using 275-nm UVC-LED radiation against airborne Coronavirus and Influenza virus
These findings highlight the potential of PACs equipped with emerging UVC-LED technologies as effective tools for indoor air decontamination. The deployment of PACs equipped with UVC radiation and filtration could be a promising alternative or supplement to ventilation systems, especially in healthcare settings and other public spaces.
