Antiviral aerosolized sanitization formulation: UnileverRecent Research Landscape

Viral transmission through mucosal pathways creates high infection risks, which these compositions mitigate by engineering receptor-mimetic binding agents to neutralize pathogens. Controlling the chemical inactivation of viruses within delivery vehicles like mouthwashes and drops reduces the viral load at the point of entry.

What technical problems is Unilever addressing in Antiviral aerosolized sanitization formulation?

Surface microbial contamination

(8)evidences

Microbial survival on environmental surfaces leads to cross-contamination and infection spread. Eliminating these reservoirs reduces the risk of disease transmission in public and clinical settings.

Pathogen transmission via airborne droplets

(4)evidences

Pathogens remain active and transmissible within the nasal and oral cavities despite natural immune barriers. Eliminating this reservoir prevents systemic infection and community transmission.
