Biocompatible Films of Calcium Alginate Inactivate Enveloped Viruses Such as SARS-CoV-2

Biocompatible Films of Calcium Alginate Inactivate Enveloped Viruses Such as SARS-CoV-2

The current pandemic is urgently demanding the development of alternative materials capable of inactivating the severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) that causes the coronavirus 2019 (COVID-19) disease. Calcium alginate is a crosslinked hydrophilic biopolymer with an immense r...
