The effect of relative humidity on swine vesicular disease virus in dried films before and during formaldehyde fumigation
Published online by Cambridge University Press: 15 May 2009
Summary
Swine Vesicular Disease virus (SVDV) did not survive drying at high relative humidities (r.h.) but there was little virus loss at low r.h.
Purified virus dried in films was inactivated by formaldehyde fumigation only at high r.h. Inactivation was also influenced by the suspending medium from which the virus was dried. Purified virus resuspended in distilled water and then dried, was rapidly killed, but that in tissue culture fluid survived.
