Table 1. Virucidal activity of 10 ppm of chlorine dioxide (ClO2) toward avian influenza virus (AIV) and infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) in aqueous phase containing 0.5 and 5% fetal bovine serum (FBS).
| Virus | AIV | IBV | |||
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| FBS (%) | 0.5 | 5.0 | 0.5 | 5.0 | |
| Control | 6.42 ± 0.18 | 5.92 ± 0.14 | 5.71 ± 0.01 | 5.80 ± 0.01 | |

a Chlorine dioxide liquid at 10 ppm of total chlorine. Figures are shown as mean ± SE from replicated 3 times. Viral titer was measured for AIV as log10 50% tissue culture infective dose (TCID50)/mL, and for IBV as log10 plaque forming unit (PFU)/mL. Viral titer <1.80 log10TCID50/mL and <2.00 log10PFU/mL indicates the virus was inactivated to undetectable level.
