Chemical inactivation of ZIKV by BPL Samples (1 × 107 PFU/mL) were treated with different concentrations of BPL as shown in the table. Each concentration was tested at 3 time points (3 h, 6 h and 24 h). Inactivation was assessed by CPE and plaque assay. Y: inactivation was successful (no CPE and no plaques); N: inactivation failed (positive for CPE or plaque formation).
