Mechanism of inactivation of influenza viruses by immobilized hydrophobic polycations

Mechanism of inactivation of influenza viruses by immobilized hydrophobic polycations

N,N-Dodecyl,methyl-polyethylenimine coatings applied to solid surfaces have been shown by us to disinfect aqueous solutions of influenza viruses. Herein we elucidate the mechanism of this phenomenon. Infectivity-, protein-, RNA-, and scanning electron microscopy-based experiments reveal that, upon c...
