Disinfection of N95 respirators by ionized hydrogen peroxide during pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to SARS-CoV-2	2020-04-08		.txt	text/plain	1029	54	49	title: Disinfection of N95 respirators by ionized hydrogen peroxide during pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to SARS-CoV-2 Letter to the Editor Disinfection of N95 respirators by ionized hydrogen peroxide during pandemic coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to SARS-CoV-2 Coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) due to SARS-CoV-2 has been spreading globally, and the World Health Organization declared a pandemic on 11 th March 2020 [1] . Therefore, we attempted to disinfect N95 respirators using SteraMist Binary Ionization Technology solution delivered through a SteraMist Surface Unit, registered with the US Environmental Protection Agency [5] . N95 respirators inoculated with influenza A virus without disinfection were used as the positive control. Reuse of N95 respirators has been proposed by CDC [4] , but this carries a risk of contamination and infection of HCWs. Disinfection of N95 respirators may provide an alternative option.
