Mechanism of chlorine inactivation of DNA-containing parvovirus H-1

Abstract: An investigation was undertaken to determine the effect of chlorine on a small DNA-containing enteric virus. Parvovirus H-1 was exposed to sodium hypochlorite in a phosphate-buffered saline solution at pH 7. Then, the whole virion, the protein capsid, or the nucleic acid was subjected to analysis. The sedimentation rate of the chlorine-treated whole virus decreased from 110S to 43S. Sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis of the virus demonstrated the formation of higher-molecular-weight aggr… Show more

“…In fact, very little is known about viral genome degradation in the environment or during water treatment. Data specifically concerning the degradation of the capsid or the genome by oxidants are sparse and sometimes contradictory (O'Brien and Newman 1979;Kim et al 1980;Roy et al 1981;O'Brien 1982a, 1982b;Churn et al 1983;Hauchman et al 1986;Noss et al 1986). In particular, no quantitative approach for viral genome degradation has been investigated in terms of the impact of oxidants on viral particles in water.…”

“…After chlorination, chlorine reacts more with intracellular components, meaning that the cells show better structural integrity and less plasma leakage because the diffusion of chlorine into cells is less constrained by reactions with cell walls. Chlorination is influenced by factors similar to ozone disinfection ( Churn et al 1983 , Cho et al 2010 ).

“…Chlorine inactivates viruses by damaging the viral capsids and destroying the exposed nucleic acids [ 55 , 56 ]. Specific sites of viral capsids are highly reactive [ 56 ], which may be explained by the different reactivity of chlorine with amino acids [ 57 ]. There is also a sensitive sequence to chlorination in viral genome.…”
