Konidien-Suspension (Stamm FRR 5666), 254 nm — xerophiler Schimmel; verdirbt Trockenfrüchte, Gewürze, Konfitüren und Backwaren trotz niedriger Wasseraktivität. Auf Agar D90 ~43 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 125.5 mJ/cm²
Morphology & UV-C resistance
