Aus der IUVA-Malayeri-2016-Fluence-Kompilation. Primärstudie: Beck et al. 2015 Action-Spectrum (Wirt E. coli CN13 ATCC 700609, abstimmbarer Laser 254 nm) — dsDNA-Phage (Siphoviridae); vergleichsweise UV-resistent, wird als konservatives Validierungs-Surrogat eingesetzt.

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 4.3 mJ/cm²
D99 99 % 2-log 8.5 mJ/cm²

Morphology & UV-C resistance

Morphology class Non-enveloped (capsid) virus

Geschwänzter dsDNA-Bakteriophage in nackter Proteinkapsel — vergleichsweise UV-resistenter Phage, als konservatives Validierungs-Surrogat genutzt.
