Light sources in the biotechnology and food industries

1. Sterilization lamp
The power of the sterilization lamp is generally 4~30W, and the output of 254nm ultraviolet light is 0.5~7.6W. The lighting circuit of the sterilization lamp is the same as that of the fluorescent lamp. Recently, this kind of lamp is used in the running water sterilizer for artificial ice and food industry water.

2. Health fluorescent lamp
Ultraviolet light with a wavelength below 320nm can synthesize vitamin D in the human body. Therefore, the wavelength of ultraviolet light radiated by this lamp is generally within 280~350nm, and the power is 10~40W, but 20W is used more. Its erythema effect output is 45,000E-Viton,

This kind of health line lamp can also promote the development of livestock such as chickens, dairy cows, and pigs. In addition, using this kind of lamp to dry mushrooms is better than drying in the sun, which can increase the content of vitamin D.

3. Crop cultivation lamp
The spectral characteristics of the crop cultivation lamp should have the effect of synthesizing chlorophyll. This type of lamp includes fluorescent lamp (20~110W) and metal halide lamp (250~1000W). The former is suitable when the crop requires low illumination, and the latter is suitable when high illumination is required.

4. Lamps for drying fish
Sardines processed by lamps for drying fish are not only more hygienic than those processed by sun drying, but also can prevent the compounding of fat and protein in sardines. The lamps used for this purpose are mostly metal halide lamps that can emit 410, 451nm blue light, which have better effects.
