Our smartphone is prone to spread the virus, along with bank notes, watches, specs, pen, ear buds, wearables and masks etc. The virus can spread from these devices through respiratory droplets and close contact as these are frequently used. And there is no way to effectively disinfect these crucial items, especially mobile phones and bank notes.

Researchers design powerful lights with UV-C technology in the range of 253.7nm. According to the research team CDC USA and Journal for Virogical method (CDC. GOV), the strength of the Sun is strong enough to kill viruses like COVID-19 and the research team found that continuous low doses of far UV-C (far-UVC) light can kill airborne flu viruses without harming human tissues.

Shuddhi Box is based on the dose principal, unique formula of the product of irradiation time and irradiation intensity is measured in UV-C dose (mWs/cm2) = intensity (mW/cm2)* time(s). Researchers says UV-C technology in the range of 253.7nm wavelength nanometers (nm), is highly effective at killing bacteria and viruses by destroying the molecular bonds that hold their DNA together. This conventional UV light is routinely used to decontaminate surgical equipment.
