UV light

What types are there:

UV-A light helps regulate behaviors such as feeding, circadian rhythm, mating, and similar activities for reptiles, rabbits, lizards, and birds, such as poultry.
UV-B light enables the synthesis of vitamin D (D3), which helps with calcium absorption.
UV-C light is not necessary for animals, but it can help kill bacteria (disinfection). - It is important to note that at high levels of exposure, this light can be harmful to animals and humans.

Understanding UV-C light

Applications and Safety

UV-C light, a type of ultraviolet light with wavelengths between 200-280 nanometers, is known for its bactericidal properties. It effectively inactivates microorganisms such as bacteria, viruses, and fungi by destroying their DNA and RNA, preventing replication.

Primarily used for sterilization and disinfection, UV-C light is important in agriculture, water treatment plants, and air purification and ventilation systems. In water treatment, UV-C light ensures safe drinking water by eliminating harmful pathogens without the use of chemicals. Air purifiers equipped with UV-C technology help maintain clean indoor air, especially in areas with high bacterial contamination.

UV-C light is used in agriculture to sterilize/disinfect incoming goods and equipment, reducing pathogens and viruses. In buildings, it disinfects air and surfaces, improves hygiene, and reduces the spread of disease, especially in high-traffic and sensitive areas. This can include areas such as pre-rooms, breeding rooms, goods reception, silos, wet feed tanks, etc.

Despite its benefits, UV-C light poses safety risks. Direct exposure can cause skin burns and eye damage. Therefore, strict safety measures, such as shielding and automation, are essential to protect users.

In conclusion, UV-C light is a powerful tool in the fight against pathogens, provided it is used with proper safety precautions. Its application in various fields highlights its versatility and importance in promoting health and hygiene.
