The sterilization principle of xenon light transfer window is described briefly.

The sterilization principle of xenon light transfer window mainly includes photochemical action and photothermal action, as follows:
Photochemistry: In the pulsed strong light generated by the pulsed xenon lamp in the xenon light transfer window, the ultraviolet light of 200-280nm is easily absorbed by nucleic acids in microbial cells. This can lead to a breakdown in the metabolism of the bacteria, causing them to develop genetic problems, and eventually lead to the death of the microbes.
Photothermal action: The UVA and UVB parts of pulsed strong light can rapidly increase the cell surface temperature to about 130°C when the radiation dose reaches a certain level. High temperature will destroy the cell wall of the bacteria, so that the cell fluid evaporates, destroying the cell structure, and then achieving the bactericidal effect.
