Effect of UVC radiation on regions of the SARS-CoV-2 coronavirus genome encoding the synthesis of structural proteins

Abstract

We studied the inactivation of SARS - CoV - 2 viruses by annihilating the structural components of the viruses that are manifested in the amplification process in the PCR procedure. For irradiation we fabricated and applied an LED matrix emitting UVC with a power of 190 mW in a narrow range of wavelengths, close to 255 nm. Each individual portion of the biomaterial (sample) was irradiated with a certain dose.
