The Abiotic Action of Ultra-violet Light

چکیده

Typhoid bacilli are about one two-hundredth as sensitive to ultraviolet light of wave-lengths 2100 to 2800 Angström units as is the photographic plate. This sensitivity then falls off, decreasing rapidly to almost zero sensitivity at about 2970, the beginning of the sun's spectrum.

Comparative study of degradation of PP modified with organic pro-degradant subjected to natural and artificial ageing

In abiotic degradation the action of light radiation is one of the most important parameters, because polymers undergo degradation due to the action of light (natural or artificial). The aim of this study was to investigate the degradation rate for samples of polypropylene (PP) modified with an organic pro-degradant submitted to ageing in a natural environment and to accelerated ageing test. Th...

Ultra-violet Light and Vaccine Virus

Rabbit skin treated for a few minutes with ultra-violet light and then inoculated at once with vaccine virus is less susceptible to the action of the virus than is untreated skin. If 24, 48, or 72 hours elapse between the time of irradiation and inoculation, the treated skin appears to be more susceptible than is untreated skin. Skin repeatedly exposed to ultra-violet light is less susceptible ...

A Study of the Bactericidal Action of Ultra Violet Light I. the Reaction to Mon'ociiro3katic Radiations by Frederick L. Gates

During the past fifty years, many investigators have studied the bactericidal activity of ultra violet light, but a review of their reports shows that little has been learned about many essential factors in the reaction. There have been few contributions to a knowledge of the quantitative relations involved. Little precise information is available on differences in resistance of individual bact...

A Study of the Bactericidal Action of Ultra Violet Light

1. Wide differences in the intensity of incident ultra violet energy are not accurately compensated by corresponding changes in the exposure time, so that the Bunsen-Roscoe reciprocity law does not hold, strictly, especially for bactericidal action on young, metabolically and genetically active bacteria. In the present series of experiments, however, the energies used at various wave lengths di...

Structural, Optical and Ultra-Violet Photodetection Properties of ZnO Nanorods with Various Aspect Ratios

ZnO nanorods with various lengths were synthesized by a two-stage route (by changing the time of growth between 0-240 min) and were characterized using XRD, SEM, UV–Vis and PL techniques. The SEM and XRD results confirmed a fast growth of (0 0 2) plane in the preferential longitudinal orientation, in contrast to lateral growth and therefore, by increasing the time of hydrothermal growth, nanoro...
