Survival of aerosolized bacteriophage phi X174 in air containing ozone--olefin mixtures.

Abstract

The effects of ozone and ozonized olefins on aerosol survival of bacteriophage phiX174 were studied. The ozone concentrations used were between 0 and 110 parts/10(9), giving decay rates up to 0-03 min-1. The olefins used were trans-2-butene and cyclohexene in concentrations of 500 parts/10(9) and 2-4 parts/10(6), respectively. Olefins alone have no effect, whereas in combination with ozone, decay rates of 0-1 min-1 and higher were obtained. The results are discussed in relation to the viricidal effect of open air.
