Abstract
The action of UV-C radiation for the decontamination of pathogens is a very actual subject to be studied, as a result of the recent pandemic (Covid-19), in finding new effective methods of inactivating pathogens (viruses, bacteria, etc.) with their application in diagnostics. The effects of UV radiation with a 254 nm wavelength on the DNA elements of yeast fungi are observed and analysed in this communication. Quick information about the dose of radiation applied and the level of inactivation of pathogens is necessary, and spectroscopy methods can be of great help in this regard.
