Essential Oils as Antiviral Agents. Potential of Essential Oils to Treat SARS−CoV−2 Infection: An <i>In−Silico</i> Investigation

Essential oils have shown promise as antiviral agents against several pathogenic viruses. In this work we hypothesized that essential oil components may interact with key protein targets of the 2019 severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS−CoV−2). A molecular docking analysis was carrie...
