Metal-Mediated Nanoscale Cerium Oxide Inactivates Human Coronavirus and Rhinovirus by Surface Disruption

The COVID19 pandemic has brought global attention to the threat of emerging viruses and to antiviral therapies, in general. In particular, the high transmissibility and infectivity of respiratory viruses have been brought to the general public’s attention, along with the need for highly effective antiviral and disinfectant materials/products. This study has developed two distinct silver-modified formulations of redox-active nanoscale cerium...
