title: Effect of UV Light on Spore Viability and Mosquito Larvicidal Activity of Bacillus sphaericus 1593.
abstract: UV light from a germicidal lamp rapidly reduced the viability of Bacillus sphaericus 1593 spores, but insecticidal activity was resistant to inactivation by continuous exposure to UV light for 4 h.
