SARS-CoV-2 Disinfection of Air and Surface Contamination by TiO<sub>2</sub> Photocatalyst-Mediated Damage to Viral Morphology, RNA, and Protein

SARS-CoV-2 Disinfection of Air and Surface Contamination by TiO<sub>2</sub> Photocatalyst-Mediated Damage to Viral Morphology, RNA, and Protein

SARS-CoV-2 is the causative agent of COVID-19, which is a global pandemic. SARS-CoV-2 is transmitted rapidly via contaminated surfaces and aerosols, emphasizing the importance of environmental disinfection to block the spread of virus. Ultraviolet C radiation and chemical compounds are effective for...
