i hadn't realised that filament lamps emitted any UV at all.
The question is: Is there any easy way to find out how much UV (and whether it's harmful UVC or other types) is coming from a MAR? I can't imagine UVC will make it through the glass of the bulb. Much UVB will also be absorbed but a lot of UVA will probably get through.

Watching for fluorescence doesn't tell you the wavelength and would be difficult because of the amount of visible light from both the MAR and lamp load.
