摘要
为对受病原体(病毒和细菌)感染的液体进行紫外线 C 消毒,提出了一种对由不同直径的石英球(纤维)形成的光学超材料进行重新包装的新方法。这种新设备的主要理念是通过由紫外线纤维/球形光学器件制备的超材料矩阵内的螺旋通道旋转受污染的液体,以提高去污效率。为了证明这种方法的可行性,本文利用紫外线 C 辐射对贝克酵母进行动态和静态灭活,以显示螺旋通道内的去污效果。
Ultraviolet C intensity dependence of decontamination efficiency for pathogens as function of repacked metamaterials with screw channels
A new method for repackaging optical metamaterials formed from quartz spheres (fibers) of various diameters is proposed for ultraviolet C disinfection of infected liquids by pathogens (viruses and bacteria). The main idea of the new equipment is connected with the rotation of a contaminated fluid by screw channels within a metamaterial matrix prepared from UVC fibers/spherical optics, to improve the decontamination efficiency. In demonstration of the viability of this approach, dynamic and static inactivation of Baker's yeast via Ultraviolet C radiation regimes are used in this paper to show the efficacy of decontamination within the screw channels.
期刊介绍:
The journal publishes papers in the field of biophysics, which is defined as the study of biological phenomena by using physical methods and concepts. Original papers, reviews and Biophysics letters are published. The primary goal of this journal is to advance the understanding of biological structure and function by application of the principles of physical science, and by presenting the work in a biophysical context.
Papers employing a distinctively biophysical approach at all levels of biological organisation will be considered, as will both experimental and theoretical studies. The criteria for acceptance are scientific content, originality and relevance to biological systems of current interest and importance.
Principal areas of interest include:
- Structure and dynamics of biological macromolecules
- Membrane biophysics and ion channels
- Cell biophysics and organisation
- Macromolecular assemblies
- Biophysical methods and instrumentation
- Advanced microscopics
- System dynamics.
