Projekt “Hygienesyphon”

Projekt “Hygienesyphon”

Blue light in the wavelength range from 400 nm to 450 nm can effectively inactivate pathogens (bacteria, fungi). This works by absorbing light through porphyrins, which are ubiquitous in living cells.
Together with the company Purion GmbH, this approach was used to create a hygiene siphon.

Laboratory setup for the development of a hygiene siphon with blue light, which was created as part of a ZIM cooperation
