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.
