Inactivation of Airborne Viruses by Ultraviolet Irradiation.
Aerosolized viruses were passed through a high-intensity ultraviolet (UV) cell. This cell consisted of a long cylindrical aluminum tube [diameter, 7 in. (17.7 cm); length, 36 in. (91.4 cm)] with a highly reflective inner surface and a longitudinally extending helical baffle system which directed airborne particles in close proximity to a centrally located UV lamp. After having been passed throu...
متن کاملChallenge Organisms for Inactivation of Viruses by Ultraviolet Treatment
BACKGROUND: Ultraviolet reactors that are used for drinking water disinfection need to be tested to ensure they are delivering the required doses and achieving the desired level of pathogen inactivation to protect public health. Testing methods can use biological, chemical, or particle surrogates, although not all approaches have been approved for reactor validation. The non-pathogenic bacterio...
متن کاملInactivation of Lassa, Marburg, and Ebola viruses by gamma irradiation.
Because of the cumbersome conditions experienced in a maximum containment laboratory, methods for inactivating highly pathogenic viruses were investigated. The infectivity of Lassa, Marburg, and Ebola viruses was inactivated without altering the immunological activity after radiation with Co60 gamma rays. At 4 degrees C, Lassa virus was the most difficult to inactivate with a rate of 5.3 X 10(-...
متن کاملInactivation by Airborne Oxidants'
Sunmmiary. Particuilate cell wall polysaccharide synthetase from oat coleoptiles could use either guanosine diphosphate glucose or turidine diphosphate glucose; the latter was a much more effective glucose donor. The neutral polymer derived from uridine diphosphate glu-cose utilization yielded, after cellulase digestion, mostly cellobiose and to a lesser extent a suibstance tentatively identifi...
متن کاملEffect of ozone on the inactivation of indoor airborne viruses with the COVID-19 virus approach: a systematic review
Background: Nowadays, the COVID-19 pandemic has become a global problem that new methods must be used to prevent it. The virus is highly contagious and is mainly transmitted through the air. Ozone is a powerful oxidant that can be used to inactivate a wide range of viruses that may be resistant to other disinfectants. The purpose of this study was to review the use and effect of ozone in inacti...
