Virus removal from aqueous environments with polyelectrolyte coatings on a polypropylene fleece
We present three methods to immobilize heparin‐mimicking, virus‐binding polymers on filter materials. Linear polyglycerol sulfate is grafted to the surface either via mussel‐inspired coating chemistry, or by using a benzophenone anchor. Herpes simplex virus type 1 and severe acute respiratory virus 2 are efficiently removed from solution upon ...

BC‐11 is a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor that impedes SARS‐CoV‐2 host cell entry
Drug repurposing has the potential to accelerate the discovery of TMPRSS2 inhibitors acting as COVID‐19 antivirals. In this regard, a low throughput screening led to the identification of BC‐11 as a covalent TMPRSS2 fragment inhibitor (IC50 = 1.44 µM), displaying significant SARS‐CoV‐2 entry inhibition (EC50 = 66 µM). Abstract Host cell entry of severe
