Comparative study on the survival time of human coronavirus HCoV-229E on the surface of inanimate objects
Objective To compare the survival time of human coronavirus HCoV-229E on different vectors of inanimate object surfaces,and to provide evidence for coronavirus disinfection.Methods Under the conditions of test ambient temperature of(25±1)℃and relative humidity of 55%±10%,the cell inoculation method was used to detect virus survival and the titer of virus suspension reached the national standard,and the survival test of HCoV-229E on different object surfaces was conducted.Results The virus titer on the vectors of paper and cloth decreased rapidly,and was close to 0 after 72 h of instilled contamination of paper and cloth.The virus titer decreased slowly on the plastic vector,and was 0.75 logTCID50/0.1 mL after 5 d.The virus titer on the vectors of stainless steel and glass sheet decreased slowly,and was 1.0 logTCID50/0.1 mL and 0.75 logTCID50/0.1 mL respectively after 4 days,and no live virus was detected on all vectors of inanimate object surfaces after 5 d.Conclusion The survival times of HCoV-229E on different inanimate object surfaces are different,and targeted disinfection of object surfaces and environment should be carried out in actual disinfection work to improve disinfection efficiency.
