        Ultraviolet disinfection lamps are a very common type of disinfection lamps in our daily lives. Do these ultraviolet disinfection lamps harm our human body? I believe many people will have this question about this question!
        In fact, ultraviolet disinfection lamps are harmful to the human body, so we need to pay attention to some precautions before and after use in our daily life and work.

        Ultraviolet disinfection lamps can use ultraviolet rays to achieve sterilization and disinfection functions. It emits relatively large ultraviolet energy. If there is no protective measure, it will cause great harm to the human body. Therefore, in daily life, when using ultraviolet disinfection lamps, try to keep people away from the room. After use, do a good job of opening windows for ventilation in time, and ventilate for more than one hour before you can enter.
  Ultraviolet disinfection lamp is to use ultraviolet rays to kill bacterial propagules, fungi, coronaviruses, etc. All surfaces contaminated by these types of viruses, water and air can be disinfected by ultraviolet rays. Ultraviolet disinfection lamps are mainly divided into high pressure, medium pressure, and low pressure. In general, low pressure is mainly used. Ultraviolet sterilization technology has been widely used in more and more fields, especially in air sterilization and surface sterilization. So, what are the harms of ultraviolet disinfection lamps to the human body?

First of all, ultraviolet disinfection lamps are very harmful to the skin. The skin exposed to the disinfection lamp will have symptoms such as redness, swelling, scaling, diffuse erythema, itching or burning, and small blisters on the tender skin. Long-term exposure to ultraviolet disinfection lamps may cause general discomfort, and in severe cases, skin cancer and skin tumors may occur.

   In short, when using ultraviolet lamps for disinfection, it is recommended not to stay in an environment exposed to ultraviolet rays for a long time. Proper irradiation of ultraviolet disinfection lamps is beneficial to the human body, but excessive irradiation can cause great harm to human health. In daily life, when using the ultraviolet disinfection lamp to irradiate, it is forbidden to enter the room. When it is necessary to enter, the ultraviolet disinfection lamp should be stopped first, and the windows should be opened for ventilation in time to avoid inhaling excessive ultraviolet rays.
