It should matter which type of surfactant works best. Obviously some cationic types will do the job, but may have toxicity concerns. IS there a difference between sulphonates/sulphates and phosphonates/phosphates, between nonionic or anionic, is anything known on structure - 'killing' effectiveness of this virus?

We have discovered aqueous quantum materials. These are solutions of ionic surfactants in the concentration range of micelle formation. According to our theory, man is also a quantum material. Water in surfactant solution and in human cells is in a similar state. Based on this information, COVID determines through the water whether it is possible to enter the cell or not. Hence the conclusion - an aqueous solution of surfactants can prevent infection with a virus and treat it. All this needs to be investigated. Treatment can be fundamentally changed. I have initiated a discussion on this issue, but it is going slowly. Judging by your question, no one but me is interested in the treatment of surfactants.

Our idea was carried out, but the authors of the article do not thank us.
