The survival and disinfection of bacteriophage phi 6, an enveloped surrogate virus, was evaluated on Tyvek suits used as health care personal protective equipment. After 6 hours there was 2-log(10) inactivation of virus on Tyvek suits at both 40% and 60% relative humidity. Both hypochlorite and quaternary ammonium produced a >3.21 - and >4.33-log(10) reduction of the virus, respectively, after 1-minute contact time. Enveloped viruses can survive on Tyvek suits beyond the length of a single patient care encounter, but they can be inactivated by chemical disinfectants.
