Selective Synthesis of α-, β-, and γ-Ag2WO4 Polymorphs: Promising Platforms for Photocatalytic and Antibacterial Materials

Roman Alvarez-Roca et al.

Summary: Silver tungstate (Ag2WO4) exhibits structural polymorphism with different crystalline phases, namely orthorhombic, hexagonal, and cubic structures referred to as alpha, beta, and gamma. This study successfully synthesized these Ag2WO4 polymorphs through a simple precipitation route and investigated their structural and electronic properties using various analytical techniques. First-principles calculations revealed atomic-level properties, while the relationship between morphology and photocatalytic and antibacterial activities was explored.

J. F. Cruz-Filho et al.

Summary: This article reports on the photocatalytic inactivation properties of silver orthophosphate (Ag3PO4) on different strains of bacteria under white LED illumination and the underlying mechanisms. The inhibitory effect of Ag3PO4 was most pronounced on Candida albicans, followed by Pseudomonas aeruginosa and B. subtilis. Additionally, Ag3PO4 induced changes in cell wall permeability and rupture in the microorganisms.

Microbicidal actives with virucidal efficacy against SARS-CoV-2 and other beta- and alpha-coronaviruses and implications for future emerging coronaviruses and other enveloped viruses

M. Khalid Ijaz et al.

Summary: Mitigating the risk of acquiring coronaviruses including SARS-CoV-2 requires awareness of the survival of the virus on high-touch environmental surfaces and skin, and frequent use of targeted microbicides with demonstrated efficacy. Research has shown that a variety of formulated microbicides can effectively inactivate SARS-CoV-2 and other coronaviruses, making them useful for targeted surface and hand hygiene, along with disinfection of liquids.

Morphology and morphogenesis of SARS-CoV-2 in Vero-E6 cells

Debora Ferreira Barreto-Vieira et al.

Summary: This study aimed to investigate the ultrastructural biology of SARS-CoV-2 in Vero-E6 cells. Through transmission electron microscopy and real-time reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR), the infection of Vero-E6 cells with SARS-CoV-2 samples isolated from Brazilian patients was documented. The susceptibility of Vero-E6 cells to SARS-CoV-2 infection and the viral pathway inside the cells were demonstrated by ultrastructural analysis, showing cytopathic effects and viral entry mechanisms.
