Abstract

The work presents a spectral-luminescent study of the sulfaguanidine transformation in water under a pulsed e-beam and UV irradiation of an UVb-04 bactericidal mercury lamp (from 180 to 275nm), KrCl (222nm), XeBr (282nm) and XeCl (308nm) excilamps. Fluorescent decay curves have been used in our analysis of the sulfaguanidine decomposition. The conversion of antibiotic under e-beam irradiation for up to 1min was more than 80%, compared with UV radiation: UVb-04-26%, XeBr - 20%. KrCl and XeCl - about 10%. At the end of 64min of irradiation with UVb-04 and XeBr lamps, the conversion was 99%. During irradiation with these lamps, sulfaguanidine almost completely decomposed and passed into the final fluorescent photoproducts. After e-beam irradiated at the end of 13min the decrease in sulfaguanidine was 93%. At the same time, the formation of sulfaguanidine transformation products was minimal compared to UV irradiation. The effect of UV irradiation and a powerful e-beam on the decomposition mechanisms of sulfaguanidine are significantly different, which is manifested in various changes in the absorption and fluorescence spectra.
