A vital component of contemporary medicine is the hunt for novel antiviral medications, especially in light of the resurgence and emergence of viral infections. Even while they work, traditional drug discovery techniques can be expensive and time-consuming. Pseudoviruses have completely changed this sector by providing a quicker, safer, and more effective means of screening possible […]

While great progress has been made in virology research over the years,  including the development of molecular cloning and CRISPR technology, the creation of pseudo-virus platforms has also shown substantial promise and potential for revolutionizing the field. By doing away with the inherent dangers of working with live viruses, these cutting-edge tools provide a more

The science of infectious illnesses is witnessing a less evident but no less serious consequence as the globe struggles with the visible effects of climate change, such as melting ice caps and extreme weather events. A new reality has emerged for Northern Europe, which was historically protected from the horrors of tropical illnesses by a

Avian influenza often known as bird flu is a virus which infects bird populations. However, as per recent findings, this virus is not just a concern for birds but also poses a growing threat to mammals, including humans. In this article, we will discuss the spread of avian influenza in mammals and how it could

During the COVID-19 outbreak, individuals sought scientifically validated antiviral disinfectants. This enhanced the need for uniform testing procedures to assess the performance of existing disinfectants and to develop more efficient antiviral solutions. EN 14476 is a standard test technique for evaluating the virucidal efficacy of disinfectants used in the medical profession. The EN 14476 certification

The need for effective viral infection prevention and control has increased post-COVID-19 pandemic. One effective method of infection control includes the use of disinfectants with virucidal activity. However, these disinfectant products must be released in the market only after being tested for their efficacy against viruses. One such standard that is internationally accepted to test
