Comparative Inactivation of Adenovirus Serotypes by UV Light Disinfection

2005

Nwachuku, Nena | Gerba, Charles P. | Oswald, Amy | Mashadi, Faezeh D.

The results of this study confirm that adenoviruses are the most resistant enteric viruses to inactivation by UV light and that adenovirus 40 appears to be the most resistant. The effect of freeze-thawing and storage in water may affect the sensitivity of some adenoviruses to inactivation by UV light.
