Aus der IUVA-Malayeri-2016-Fluence-Kompilation. Primärstudie: Gerba et al. 2002 (BGM-Zellkultur), LP-Hg 254 nm — Enterovirus (Picornaviridae); Erreger von Hand-Fuß-Mund-Krankheit, Myokarditis, aseptischer Meningitis. UV-resistenter als hüllbedeckte Viren.

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 9.5 mJ/cm²

Morphology & UV-C resistance

Morphology class Non-enveloped (capsid) virus

Nackte Picornavirus-Capsid ohne Lipidhülle — kompakte ikosaedrische Struktur, UV-resistent (ähnlich Poliovirus).
