Efficacy of common disinfectant/cleaning agents in inactivating murine norovirus and feline calicivirus as surrogate viruses for human norovirus.
BACKGROUND The efficacies of disinfection by sodium hypochlorite, accelerated hydrogen peroxide (AHP), and quaternary ammonium compound (QUAT) commonly used in health care facilities were determined using the surrogate viruses murine norovirus (MNV-1) and feline calicivirus (FCV). METHODS A virus suspension of known concentration (with or without a soil load) was deposited onto stainless stee...
متن کاملVirucidal activity of a quaternary ammonium compound disinfectant against feline calicivirus: a surrogate for norovirus.

متن کاملInactivation of murine norovirus and feline calicivirus during oyster fermentation.
Fermented seafood is popular in Asian countries. This study examined the survival of feline calicivirus (FCV) and murine norovirus (MNV) during oyster fermentation. Oysters spiked with FCV and MNV were fermented with 5% or 10% salt at 18 °C for 15 days, and MNV and FCV titers, lactic acid bacteria (LAB) populations, pH, and enzymatic activity were measured at 0, 1, 3, 5, 7, 10, and 15 days post...
متن کاملAntiviral Effect of Korean Red Ginseng Extract and Ginsenosides on Murine Norovirus and Feline Calicivirus as Surrogates for Human Norovirus
Korean red ginseng has been studied various biological activities such as immune, anti-oxidative, anti-microbial, and anticancer activities but antiviral mechanism needs further studies. In this study, we aimed to examine the antiviral effects of Korea red ginseng extract and ginsenosides on norovirus surrogate, including murine norovirus (MNV) and feline calicivirus (FCV). We evaluated the pre...
متن کاملVirucidal efficacy of disinfectant actives against feline calicivirus, a surrogate for norovirus, in a short contact time.
BACKGROUND Among other measures, handwashing and targeted disinfection are important in preventing and controlling norovirus outbreaks. Presently, there are a limited number of disinfectants effective against norovirus. There is a need to develop alternatives to bleach that are effective against norovirus, and, in particular, fast-acting disinfectants are desired. The aim of this study was to d...
