Abstract: The present invention relates to an apparatus for controlling microorganism load on or near a medical infusion line. The apparatus comprises an electronic illuminator, including a light emitting diode (LED) that emits light radiation at a wavelength of 100 nm to 400 nm, and a lens for directing light from the LED. Additionally, a side emitting fiber optic line, equipped with a protective end cap, is attached to the electronic illuminator at the lens. The side emitting fiber optic line is configured to the medical infusion line. This apparatus effectively controls the microorganism load by emitting light radiation in the specified wavelength range, thereby reducing the risk of contamination and infection in medical infusion procedures.
