Role of interfering substances in the survival of coronaviruses on surfaces and their impact on the efficiency of hand and surface disinfection 2020-08-25 .txt text/plain 3991 190 42 To this end, surface stability of SARS-CoV-2 was measured on stainless steel in different experimental conditions, with or without an artificial mucus/saliva mixture and compared against that of human coronavirus HCoV-229E and feline coronavirus FCoV. In an attempt to better understand and thus better control the transmission of SARS-CoV-2 behind the recent and ongoing pandemic, the impact of body fluid secretions, from coughing or sneezing corresponding to an artificial mixture containing nasal mucus and saliva, on the surface stability of SARS-CoV-2 and the virucidal efficiency of disinfectant were tested. The impact of the mucus/saliva mixture on the virucidal efficiency of 3 commercial alcohol hand sanitizers (according to the EN14476 standard suspension test) and 1 surface chemical disinfectant (according to the virucidal surface quantitative EN16777 test) against SARS-CoV-2, HCoV-229E and FCoV was then measured. The virucidal activity of three commercial hand rub products against SARS-CoV-2, HCoV-229E and FCoV was determined using the quantitative suspension test according to EN 14476, comparing standardized interfering substance (clean condition, 0.3 g/l BSA) and our artificial mucus/saliva mixture. ./cache/cord-349721-wdjlr4z4.txt ./txt/cord-349721-wdjlr4z4.txt
