After a bit of reading.
Found a nice article about uvb leds.
280nm UVB induces secretion of HMGB1 and apoptosis (death of the cells)
310nm UV-B induces the secretion of high-mobility group box-1 (HMGB1) enriching phytochemicals in plants. without inducing apoptosis.
In the case of agricultural applications, recently, it was discovered that the phytochemicals in fruit and vegetables can be enriched by using narrowband-310 nm UV-B light sources, even with a modest output power of around 20 mW.
Phytochemicals from plants can greatly reduce the risk of cancer and cardiovascular disease.
293nm 2.4 times more efficient than sunlight for producing vitamin D3 in the human body.
Both 310 nm-and 295 nm-emission UV-B LED devices are very useful for both medical and agricultural applications.
On average
295nm max 1.8mW
310nm max 2.7mW

mediates photomorphogenic responses to UV-B by regulating transcription of a set of target genes. UVR8 differs from other known photoreceptors in that it uses specific Trp amino acids instead of a prosthetic chromophore for light absorption during UV-B photoreception. Absorption of UV-B dissociates the UVR8 dimer into monomers, initiating signal transduction through interaction with CONSTITUTIVELY PHOTOMORPHOGENIC1. However, much remains to be learned about the physiological role of UVR8 and its interaction with other signaling pathways, the molecular mechanism of UVR8 photoreception, how the UVR8 protein initiates signaling, how it is regulated, and how UVR8 regulates transcription of its target genes.
