Ozone can kill Aspergillus flavus.
Ozone is a strong oxidizing agent, which has a direct oxidizing effect on bacteria and kills them.
The principle of ozone sterilization and disinfection is this, because it is a strong oxidant, our industry called redox point is very high, it produces direct oxidation of bacteria.
Before the direct oxidation of the bacterial cell membrane, oxidation of the cell membrane after the bacteria and sugar metabolism inside the direct oxidation of enzymes, in addition to oxidation of the cell membrane after the direct access to the cell interior, the bacteria or viruses of the genetic material, everyone knows called DNA or RNA, is deoxyribonucleic acid, ribonucleic acid, which is oxidized directly to the end.
After the oxidative damage, the bacteria or virus can no longer replicate, can no longer reproduce, so it is directly killed.
So, ozone in the disinfection of this, it is a we call the bacteriological level, the microbial bacteria directly to the complete oxidation of no, unlike some than say ultraviolet light, ultraviolet light to kill the bacteria, but the bacterial body, but it can be sufficient to oxidize it, so the biggest benefit, but also lies in the complete kill, it will not appear after the bacterial residue resulting in other aspects of some of the The most important thing is that it will not have any other effects caused by the residual bacteria after it is killed.
Expanded:
Ozone disinfection sterilization method has the following characteristics compared to conventional sterilization methods:
1, high efficiency:
Ozone disinfection sterilization Do not need any other auxiliary materials and additives, sterilization thoroughly, with a strong mold, in addition to the function of odor.
2, high cleanliness:
The rapid decomposition of ozone into oxygen is the characteristic of ozone as a disinfection and sterilization of the unique advantages. Ozone is generated using the oxygen in the air, disinfection process, excess ozone is quickly decomposed into oxygen, there is no residue, solving the problem of secondary pollution generated by disinfectant disinfection methods, while eliminating the need to clean again after the end of disinfection.
3, convenience:
Ozone sterilization equipment is generally installed in the clean room or air purification system or sterilization room (such as ozone sterilization cabinet, transfer window, etc.). Drinking water disinfection of the ozone generator will produce ozone directly into the water. All can be based on the actual application, set the time to open the sterilizer and run time, easy to operate and use.
4, economic:
Through the use of ozone sterilization in many pharmaceutical industries and health care units and the operation of the comparison, the ozone disinfection method compared with other methods have great economic and social benefits. In today's rapid industrial development, environmental issues are particularly important, while ozone disinfection to avoid the secondary pollution produced by other disinfection methods.
