Real-time monitoring of hydrogen peroxide vapour decontamination of bacterial spores by means of UV fluorimetry

This study is devoted to the development of a UV fluorimetry sensor capable of real-time monitoring of the decontamination process of microbiological pathogens by hydrogen peroxide vapour (HPV) treatment. The sensor is operating on the autofluorescence signal of tryptophan. The Bacillus atrophaeus (...
