Motivation

Viruses have caused many epidemics throughout human history. The novel coronavirus [10] is just the latest example. A new viral outbreak can be unpredictable, and development of specific defense tools and countermeasures against the new virus remains time-consuming even in today's  era of modern medical science and technology. In the lack of effective and specific medication or vaccination, it would be desirable to have a nonspecific protocol or substance to render the virus inactive, a substance/protocol, which could be applied whenever a new viral outbreak occurs. 

This is especially important in cases when the emerging new virus is as infectious as SARS-CoV-2 [4]. Aim and structure of the present communication In this editorial, we propose to consider the possibility of developing and implementing antiviral protocols by applying high purity aqueous chlorine dioxide (ClO2) solutions. 

The aim of this proposal is to initiate research that could lead to the introduction of practical and effective antiviral protocols. To this end, we first discuss some important properties of the ClO2 molecule, which make it an advantageous antiviral agent, then some earlier results of ClO2 gas application against viruses will be reviewed. Finally, we hypothesize on methods to control the spread of viral infections using aqueous ClO2 solutions.











CONCLUSION 

In this editorial, we summarized the unique properties of chlorine dioxide, which make it an ideal and nonspecific antimicrobial agent at concentrations harmless to humans, and we reviewed previous research on preventing viral infections with gaseous ClO2. Based on this background, we suggested some novel hypothetical methods using chlorine dioxide to disinfect rooms, prevent human infection, and slow down viral spread. These are nonspecific methods, which could be used against any newfound virus as a first line of protection until effective specific countermeasures are developed.

Chlorine Dioxide: A Potential Mouth Rinse for Oral Health

 Chlorine Dioxide : A Potential Mouth Rinse for Oral Health Shubangi Mani, Ameet Mani, Rajiv Saini  ABSTRACT  The current global and regional patterns of oral disease largely reflect distinct risk profiles across countries, related to living conditions, lifestyles and the implementation of preventive oral health systems.  Periodontitis has been proposed as having an etiological or modulating role in cardiovascular diseases, diabetes, respiratory disease, adverse pregnancy outcome and other systemic diseases. Chlorine dioxide when stabilized in water and used at low concentration effectively neutralizes volatile sulfur compounds in the oral cavity. This compound has the ability to effectively clean oral tissues on a daily basis without causing harmful side effects.  Keywords: Chlorine, Periodontitis, Halitosis. How to cite this article: Mani S, Mani A, Saini R.

Therefore, the elimination of biofilm is an essential step for the successful therapy of implant-related infections. In thi
