Treatment of the Candida subspecies Candida albicans and Candida parapsilosis with two far‐UVC sources to minimise mycoses in clinical practice

Fungal infections have increased considerably over the last decades, becoming progressively resistant to common drugs. UVC light has shown microbiological eradication effects, whereby the wavelength of 254 nm is strongly carcino- and mutagenic.
