Konidien-Suspension, 254 nm, 20 °C, pH 7.9 — Leit-Schimmel für Feuchteschäden in Gebäuden (Sterigmatocystin-Bildner); in Luft je nach Luftfeuchte D90 ~17–33 mJ/cm2.

UV-C dose–response (D-values)

A D-value is the UV-C dose (in mJ/cm²) needed for a given log-reduction. D90 = 90 % inactivation = 1-log; D99 = 99 % = 2-log; D99.9 = 99.9 % = 3-log, and so on. Values come from the cited study under its specific test conditions.

Reduction log Dose (mJ/cm²)
D90 90 % 1-log 28.2 mJ/cm²

Morphology & UV-C resistance
