The X1-1-UV-3726 radiometer enables the effectiveness of UV germicidal irradiation (UVGI) to be accurately determined for both low pressure mercury (254nm) germicidal lamps and UV-C LEDs. Related To: ...

Integrating spheres are widely used to measure the total light output (radiant or luminous flux) of light sources such as lamps, luminaires and LEDs, but few (if any) come calibrated for measuring the ...

TESTA Analytical Solutions has introduced a remote cell version of its Rapid Scanning UV Detector kit, allowing this elegant OEM technology to be integrated into a wider range of industrial ...

The U.S. National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST) has completed significant upgrades to two key instruments serving what the agency calls “critical national needs”. The devices measure ...

Ultraviolet light has a long history as a disinfectant, and the SARS-CoV-2 virus, which causes COVID-19, is readily rendered harmless by UV light. The question is how best to harness UV light to fight ...

Chemical oxygen demand (COD) is a crucial metric for assessing the organic pollution load in water, reflecting the amount of oxygen required to oxidise organic compounds. Ultraviolet–visible (UV–Vis) ...
