Nano‐ and Micro‐Sized Solid Materials Used as Antiviral Agents

open access: yesAdvanced Functional Materials, Volume 36, Issue 26, 30 March 2026.
Due to the rise of viral infections in humans and possible viral outbreaks, the use of nano‐ or micro‐sized materials as antiviral agents is rapidly increasing. This review explores their antiviral properties against RNA and DNA viruses, either as a prevention or a treatment tool, by delving into their mechanisms of action and how to properly assess ...

Gouleako and Herbert Viruses in Pigs, Republic of Korea, 2013

open access: yesEmerging Infectious Diseases, 2014
Several viruses in the family Bunyaviridae are pathogenic to animals and cause vector-borne zoonoses. In 2013, investigation of cause of death of 9 pigs on 1 farm in the Republic of Korea found infection with Gouleako and Herbert viruses.

Akkermansia muciniphila enhances chicken resistance to infectious bronchitis virus by boosting GABA synthesis and suppressing the NF‐κB inflammatory pathway

open access: yesiMetaOmics, Volume 3, Issue 1, March 2026.
Infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) represents a major threat to poultry production, with current control strategies offering limited protection. In this study, we demonstrate gut microbiome is a critical determinant of IBV resistance using fecal microbiota transplantation.

Morphologic Differentiation of Viruses beyond the Family Level

open access: yesViruses, 2014
Electron microscopy has been instrumental in the identification of viruses by being able to characterize a virus to the family level. There are a few cases where morphologic or morphogenesis factors can be used to differentiate further, to the genus ...

Knockdown of piRNA pathway proteins results in enhanced Semliki forest virus production in mosquito cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
The exogenous siRNA pathway is important in restricting arbovirus infection in mosquitoes. Less is known about the role of the PIWI-interacting RNA pathway, or piRNA pathway, in antiviral responses. Viral piRNA-like molecules have recently been described

Toward Dual‐Function Nanoparticle Platforms for Arboviral Diagnostics and Vaccines: Advances, Challenges, and Future Prospects

open access: yesNano Select, Volume 7, Issue 2, February 2026.
This review explores nanoparticle (NP)‐based biosensors and nanovaccine platforms for arboviral infections, highlighting their design, performance, and translational potential. By comparing case studies across viruses, it identifies gold‐standard nanomaterials such as gold NPs (AuNPs), zinc oxide NPs (ZnONPs), molybdenum disulfide (MoS2) nanocomposites,
