Virucidal activity of CPC-containing oral rinses against SARS-CoV-2 variants and are active in the presence of human saliva

2021-08-05

Abstract excerpt

The role of human saliva in aerosol-based transmission of SARS-CoV-2 has highlighted the need to understand the potential of oral hygiene products to inactivate the virus. Here we examined the efficacy of mouthwashes containing cetylpyridinium chloride (CPC) or chlorhexidine (CHX) in inactivating SARS-CoV-2. After 30 seconds contact under standard aqueous conditions CPC mouthwashes achieved a ≥4.0log 10 PFU/mL re...
