In this BONUS episode of Food Safety Matters, we speak to Phoseon about:

  • Phoseon's use of UV LED disinfection systems to reduce and control foodborne pathogens from food products and contact surfaces
  • The potential to use UV LED to treat beverages, produce, packaging, and various surfaces
  • The overall benefits of using UV light, particularly in food processing
  • Environments and instances that are ideal (and not ideal) for Phoseon's food safety applications
  • Why traditional or more aggressive methods to eliminate pathogens may not be desirable
  • The risks of purchasing UV LED equipment and systems from commercial market sellers
  • Worker safety when using UV LED lights
  • Upcoming research and product innovation within Phoseon
