- FIG. 4B is a graph obtained by redrawing the graphs of the unprocessed, Example 1, and Comparative Example 1 by translating them in the vertical axis direction from the viewpoint of making FIG. 4A easier to see.
- FIGS. 4A and 4B in Comparative Example 1, 3-methyl-1-butanol that was not present in the untreated and in Example 1 was detected.

- JCM2152 Bacillus cereus
- a coffee jelly fragrance was adopted as the solution to be treated 2.
- the number of colonies generated on the agar medium was examined. The result is shown in FIG. According to FIG. 9, it was confirmed that even when the light source of Example 1 was used, the bactericidal effect was secured. In addition, even if it was a case where the light source of Example 2 and Example 3 was used by setting processing time appropriately, it was confirmed that the bactericidal effect can be ensured.
- the processing time when using the light source of Example 1 is 55 seconds or more and 84 seconds or less, and the processing time when using the light source of Example 2 is 100 seconds or more and 300 seconds or less.
- This processing time is sufficiently longer than the time of sterilization processing using a flash lamp (msec order) in the field of food such as meat and fish.
- Meat and fish contain a lot of oil, which is altered by absorbing light. For this reason, in the food field, a method of sterilizing by irradiating light for an extremely short time to instantaneously increase the temperature to be used may be used.
- the present invention newly discovers that a change in odor and taste occurs by irradiating ultraviolet light in a predetermined wavelength band, and then in a specific wavelength band excluding the predetermined wavelength band. Irradiation with ultraviolet light makes it possible to suppress the change and deterioration of smell and taste while ensuring the bactericidal effect.
- ultraviolet light having an emission wavelength of 260 nm or less was substantially irradiated. Without irradiating, it is understood that sterilization treatment can be performed while irradiating ultraviolet light having an emission wavelength of 280 nm or more and 320 nm or less while suppressing changes in taste and smell.
- FIG. 10 is a graph showing the relative value of the bactericidal power for each wavelength when the same amount of light is irradiated.
- the horizontal axis indicates the wavelength
- the vertical axis indicates the relative value of the bactericidal power for each wavelength when the bactericidal power at 254 nm is 100%.
- the bactericidal power of light with a wavelength of 280 nm is about 60% with respect to a wavelength of 254 nm.
- the sterilizing power of light having a wavelength longer than 320 nm is 0.001% or less with respect to the wavelength of 254 nm.
- Sterilization ability is improved by increasing the amount of irradiation light. That is, by adjusting the output of the light source and the irradiation time, the sterilizing ability can be substantially secured at a practical level.
- the effect of sterilization cannot be sufficiently ensured unless the output of the light source is made extremely high and an extremely long irradiation time is ensured.
- FIG. 1 when it is assumed that sterilization is performed by irradiating light from a light source while flowing the solution to be treated 2 in the flow path 3, a light source that emits light having a wavelength longer than 320 nm is employed. In this case, in order to ensure a very long irradiation time, it is necessary to extremely slow the flow rate of the solution to be treated 2 and to lengthen the length of the light source in the flow path direction, which is not practical.
