Evaluated UV-C LED inactivation of E. coli, MS2, Adenovirus 2 and B. pumilus spores. Compared UV-C LEDs to LP and MP UV lamps for inactivation and energy efficiency. Confirmed absence of dual-wavelength synergy for inactivation and DNA/RNA damage. UV-C LEDs will require efficiencies of 25–39% to match performance of LP UV lamps.
