These properties specific to UV-C radiation (200-280 mm) result from its action on the nucleic acids of the micro-organisms. Each micro-organism, depending on its composition, therefore presents a specific sensitivity to this radiation. PY 1992 PD APR CT Actes de colloques. Ifremer. Brest [ACTES COLLOQ.
