Enveloped Virus Inactivation by Fatty Acid Derivatives [PDF]
Antimicrobial Agents and Chemotherapy, 1979 The enveloped bacteriophage φ6 has been shown to be a valuable model system for the preliminary screening of compounds that might be expected to inactivate herpes simplex virus and other enveloped mammalian viruses. A variety of fatty acid derivatives that form fluid micelles in aqueous media have been found to be potent inactivators of φ6.

Does limited virucidal activity of biocides include duck hepatitis B virucidal action? [PDF]
, 2012 BACKGROUND: There is agreement that the infectivity assay with the duck hepatitis B virus (DHBV) is a suitable surrogate test to validate disinfectants for hepatitis B virucidal activity.

Elastic deformation of a fluid membrane upon colloid binding
, 2003 When a colloidal particle adheres to a fluid membrane, it induces elastic deformations in the membrane which oppose its own binding. The structural and energetic aspects of this balance are theoretically studied within the framework of a Helfrich ...

An alphaherpesvirus exploits antimicrobial beta-defensins to initiate respiratory tract infection [PDF]
, 2020 beta-Defensins protect the respiratory tract against the myriad of microbial pathogens entering the airways with each breath. However, this potentially hostile environment is known to serve as a portal of entry for herpesviruses.

Envelope–Receptor Interactions in Nipah Virus Pathobiology [PDF]
Annals of the New York Academy of Sciences, 2007 Abstract: Nipah (NiV) and Hendra (HeV) viruses are members of the newly definedHenipavirusgenus of theParamyxoviridae.Nipah virus (NiV) is an emergent paramyxovirus that causes fatal encephalitis in up to 70% of infected patients, and there is increasing evidence of human‐to‐human transmission.

Antiviral efficacy of cerium oxide nanoparticles
Scientific Reports, 2022 Nanomaterials are prospective candidates for the elimination of viruses due to their multimodal mechanisms of action. Here, we tested the antiviral potential of a largely unexplored nanoparticle of cerium dioxide (CeO2).

The interferon-stimulated gene IFITM3 restricts West Nile virus infection and pathogenesis [PDF]
, 2016 The interferon-induced transmembrane protein (IFITM) family of proteins inhibit infection of several different enveloped viruses in cell culture by virtue of their ability to restrict entry and fusion from late endosomes.

Overexpression of Ebola virus envelope GP1 protein [PDF]
Protein Expression and Purification, 2017 Ebola virus uses its envelope GP1 and GP2 for viral attachment and entry into host cells. Due to technical difficulty expressing full-length envelope, many structural and functional studies of Ebola envelope protein have been carried out primarily using GP1 lacking its mucin-like domain.

Why enveloped viruses need cores -- the contribution of a nucleocapsid core to viral budding
, 2017 During the alphavirus lifecycle, a nucleocapsid core buds through the cell membrane to acquire an outer envelope of lipid membrane and viral glycoproteins. However, the presence of a nucleocapsid core is not required for assembly of infectious particles.
