Variability and Relative Order of Susceptibility of Non-Enveloped Viruses to Chemical Inactivation

, 2022
Viruses exhibit a marked variation in their susceptibilities to chemical and physical inactivation. Identifying a trend within these variations, if possible, could be valuable in the establishment of an effective and efficient infection control or risk mitigation strategy.

Studies on the Virucidal Effects of UV-C of 233 nm and 275 nm Wavelengths

Viruses
Among the physical decontamination methods, treatment with ultraviolet (UV) radiation is a suitable means of preventing viral infections. Mercury vapor lamps (254 nm) used for room decontamination are potentially damaging to human skin (radiation) and ...

Essential oils expose diverse targets on non-enveloped ScV-L-A totivirus

Pharmaceutical Biology
Context The spread of novel viruses substantiates the need for alternative antiviral agents. Plant-based extracts, such as essential oils (EOs), are highly relevant due to their generally human-friendly nature and broad spectrum of bioactive properties ...

Structural engineering of antimicrobials for optimal broad-spectrum activity

Green Chemical Engineering
Antimicrobial materials are a crucial component in eradicating and managing the spread of infectious diseases. They are expected to act on a broad-spectrum of microbes, including emerging pathogens which could cause the next Disease X.

pH-dependent virucidal effects of weak acids against pathogenic viruses

Tropical Medicine and Health
Background Weak acids, such as acetic acid, show virucidal effects against viruses, and disinfectants are considered effective virucidal agents possibly because of their low pH, depending on the proton concentration.

Virucidal activity of 70% Ethanol vs Enveloped and Non-Enveloped Viruses

, 2017
Viruses contain genetic material packaged in a protein coat called the capsid. For some viruses, the capsid is surrounded by an envelope composed of a lipid bilayer derived from the host cell membrane (Figure 2). Virus structure determines the stability characteristics of the virus particle, such as resistance to chemical or physical inactivation ...
