Abstract
The invention relates to a device and a method for UV antisepsis, in particular for intracorporeal in vivo UV antisepsis on the human and animal body in the event of colonization with multiresistant pathogens (MRPs) such as methicillin-resistant(MRSA) and(MRSE). The device comprises a light emitting diode chip, LED chip, configured to emit radiation in the UVC spectral range, wherein the LED chip forms a light emitting diode, LED, with a package; a spectral filter element set up to limit the radiation emitted by the LED chip substantially to wavelengths below 235 nm; and an optical element for directional emission of the radiation emitted by the LED.
