Antiviral activity of a novel composition of peracetic acid disinfectant on parvoviruses.
Porcine parvoviruses (PPV) are known to be particularly resistant to many disinfectants used to control other non-enveloped viruses. However, effective disinfectants used against PPV are harsh and corrosive to animal health facilities and the environment. We propose a noncorrosive "green" disinfectant that generates peracetic acidin-situand is capable of inactivating PPV completely at a 1% concentration for a 10-minute contact time.
