What Are the Best Resources to Learn About UV Sanitization?

[tihort]

I am a new product development engineer and am working on figuring out a UV sanitization product.

Do you know of a good resource to understand UV rays, its properties, using UV, etc.?

I am not looking for detailed math models and analysis, but rather, a resource that will help me understand enough to spec out the kind of UV bulb needed, the intensity needed and to be able to understand/ predict its efficacy.

Thank you in advance.

Our tissue culture hoods all have UV germicidal bulbs in them- have a look at what the bulb supplier says (GE, most likely)
