Table 1. Virucidal efficacy of the tested solutions toward infectious bronchitis virus (IBV) in aqueous phase containing 5% fetal bovine serum.
| Tested solutions | Viral titer [log10 (PFU/ml)] at different contact times |
||
|---|---|---|---|
| IBV control | 0 sec | 30 sec | |
| FdCa(OH)2a | 6.012 ± 0.03 | 6.005 ± 0.03 | <1.398 ± 0 |
| NaClO-1,000b | 5.423 ± 0.03 | <1.398 ± 0 | |
| NaClO-500c | 5.394 ± 0.03 | <1.398 ± 0 | |
| Mix-500d | 5.466 ± 0.07 | <1.398 ± 0 | |
| QAC-500e | 5.932 ± 0.02 | <1.398 ± 0 | |
a Food additive grade calcium hydroxide at 0.17% solution, b sodium hypochlorite solution at 1,000 ppm of total chlorine, c sodium hypochlorite solution at 500 ppm of total chlorine, d sodium hypochlorite solution at 500 ppm of total chlorine in 0.17% FdCa(OH)2, e quaternary ammonium compound diluted 500-fold in redistilled water. Figures are shown as mean ± SE from replicated 3 times. Viral titer <1.398 log10 PFU (plaque forming units)/ml indicates the virus was inactivated to undetectable level.
