Strain-Specific Virolysis Patterns of Human Noroviruses in Response to Alcohols.

Strain-Specific Virolysis Patterns of Human Noroviruses in Response to Alcohols.

Alcohol-based hand sanitizers are widely used to disinfect hands to prevent the spread of pathogens including noroviruses. Alcohols inactivate norovirus by destruction of the viral capsid, resulting in the leakage of viral RNA (virolysis). Since conflicting results have been reported on the suscepti...
