To investigate the optimal contact time and concentration for viricidal activity of oral preparation of povidone-iodine (PVP-I) against SARS-CoV-2 ('corona virus') to mitigate the risk and transmission of the virus in the dental practice.
The severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) USA-WA1/2020 strain, virus stock was tested against oral antiseptic solutions consisting of aqueous povidone-iodine (PVP-I) as the sole active ingredient. The PVP-I was tested at diluted concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%. Test media without any virus was added to 2 tubes of the compounds to serve as toxicity and neutralization controls. Ethanol (70%) was tested in parallel as a positive control, and water only as a negative control. The test solutions and virus were incubated at room temperature (22 ± 2 °C) for time periods of 15 and 30 seconds. The solution was then neutralized by a 1/10 dilution in minimum essential medium (MEM) 2% fetal bovine serum (FBS), 50 µg/mL gentamicin. Surviving virus from each sample was quantified by standard end-point dilution assay and the log reduction value (LRV) of each compound compared to the negative (water) control was calculated.
PVP-I oral antiseptics at all tested concentrations of 0.5%, 1%, and 1.5%, completely inactivated SARS-CoV-2 within 15 seconds of contact. The 70% ethanol control group was unable to completely inactivate SARS-CoV-2 after 15 seconds of contact, but was able to inactivate the virus at 30 seconds of contact.
PVP-I oral antiseptic preparations rapidly inactivated SARS-CoV-2 virus in vitro. The viricidal activity was present at the lowest concentration of 0.5 % PVP-I and at the lowest contact time of 15 seconds. This important finding can justify the use of preprocedural oral rinsing with PVP-I (for patients and health care providers) may be useful as an adjunct to personal protective equipment, for dental and surgical specialties during the COVID-19 pandemic.
研究聚维酮碘(PVP-I)口腔制剂对 SARS-CoV-2(“冠状病毒”)的杀病毒活性的最佳接触时间和浓度,以降低牙科实践中病毒的风险和传播。
使用含有聚维酮碘(PVP-I)作为唯一活性成分的口腔抗菌溶液对严重急性呼吸综合征冠状病毒 2(SARS-CoV-2)美国-WA1/2020 株病毒株进行测试。PVP-I 以 0.5%、1%和 1.5%的稀释浓度进行测试。将不含任何病毒的试验介质添加到 2 管化合物中,作为毒性和中和对照。乙醇(70%)作为阳性对照平行测试,仅用水作为阴性对照。试验溶液和病毒在室温(22±2°C)下孵育 15 和 30 秒。然后,通过在最小必需培养基(MEM)2%胎牛血清(FBS)、50µg/mL 庆大霉素中进行 1/10 稀释将溶液中和。通过标准终点稀释测定法对每个样品中的存活病毒进行定量,并计算每个化合物与阴性(水)对照相比的对数减少值(LRV)。
所有测试浓度(0.5%、1%和 1.5%)的 PVP-I 口腔抗菌剂在接触 15 秒内即可完全灭活 SARS-CoV-2。70%乙醇对照组在接触 15 秒内无法完全灭活 SARS-CoV-2,但在接触 30 秒时能够灭活病毒。
PVP-I 口腔抗菌制剂可快速在体外灭活 SARS-CoV-2 病毒。最低浓度为 0.5%PVP-I,最短接触时间为 15 秒,即可发挥杀菌活性。这一重要发现可以证明,在 COVID-19 大流行期间,对患者和医护人员进行术前口腔冲洗(用 PVP-I 冲洗)可能有用,可作为个人防护设备的辅助手段,适用于牙科和外科专业。
