Hi everyone,

We are synthesizing a virucidal material that will kill SARS-CoV-2 on contact.

In these preliminary stages, we want to use enveloped surrogate viruses that are the easiest to propagate and safe to handle. For example, Phi6 bacteriophage and its easily cultured host, Pseudomonas syringae.

Other CoVs (299e, OC43, etc.) and influenzas have been considered, but as I said for now we want to keep complications to a minimum.

Any advice on possible enveloped viruses to use?

Thanks,

Max Bueckert
