Abstract

Inactivation effect of the novel photocatalyst on polyethylene terephthalate film on goose parvovirus (GPV), avian influenza virus (AIV) and Qβ phage was evaluated. Under a light emitting diode (LED) light (range 410–750 nm), GPV was inactivated by irradiation of 1,000 lux for 6 hr, while AIV and Qβ phage were inactivated by irradiation of 150 lux for 2 hr. These data suggest that the new photocatalyst can be potentially used as one of the materials to inactivate viruses in the indoor environment and helps us to prevent viral infectious diseases through indirect contact.
