Hi Mark,

Have you guys looked at UVC lights for this? This may be ideal for disinfecting the lab between users, as well as keyboards and peripherals. The CNBC video is very interesting.

Stay safe and good luck!

Tom

Greetings,
As we all work towards safe re-openings of our labs, what solutions have been discovered for disinfecting live keyboards, mouse, touchscreens etc?
We are being told it will be a requirement but we obviously can't spray liquids directly on them and we can't turn off these tools between uses to disconnect peripherals and reboot?

Thanks in advance,
