Calicivirus inactivation by nonionizing (253.7-nanometer-wavelength [UV]) and ionizing (gamma) radiation.
Noroviruses (previously Norwalk-like viruses) are the most common viral agents associated with food- and waterborne outbreaks of gastroenteritis. In the absence of culture methods for noroviruses, animal caliciviruses were used as model viruses to study inactivation by nonionizing (253.7-nm-wavelength [UV]) and ionizing (gamma) radiation. Here, we studied the respiratory feline calicivirus (FeC...
متن کاملInactivation of feline calicivirus and adenovirus type 40 by UV radiation.
Little information regarding the effectiveness of UV radiation on the inactivation of caliciviruses and enteric adenoviruses is available. Analysis of human calicivirus resistance to disinfectants is hampered by the lack of animal or cell culture methods that can determine the viruses' infectivity. The inactivation kinetics of enteric adenovirus type 40 (AD40), coliphage MS-2, and feline calici...
متن کاملUltraviolet and ionizing radiation for microorganism inactivation.
The impacts of UV irradiation, gamma irradiation, and a combination of both on Escherichia coli inactivation in primary and secondary wastewater effluents were investigated. UV doses of 35 and 62 J/m(2) were required for a 1-log inactivation of E. coli in the primary and secondary wastewater samples, respectively. A gamma dose of 170 Gy (J/kg) was required for a 1-log inactivation of E. coli in...
متن کاملIonizing radiation and short wavelength UV activate NF-kappaB through two distinct mechanisms.
We examined the mechanisms by which two different types of photonic radiation, short wavelength UV (UV-C) and gamma radiation, activate transcription factor NF-kappaB. Exposure of mammalian cells to either form of radiation resulted in induction with similar kinetics of NF-kappaB DNA binding activity, nuclear translocation of its p65(RelA) subunit, and degradation of the major NF-kappaB inhibit...
متن کاملInactivation of thirty viruses by gamma radiation.
Decimal reduction values (D value) for 30 viruses were determined. The weighted D values of the viruses suspended in Eagle's minimum essential medium ranged from 0.39 to 0.53 Mrads. It was necessary to increase the radiation dose by a factor of >3 to inactivate virus suspended in Eagle's minimum essential medium as compared to the same virus suspended in distilled water. The destruction rate cu...
