Silver coat inhibits some respiratory virusesNanostructured composite coating endowed with antiviral activity against human respiratory viruses deposited on fibre-based air filters.
We assessed the antiviral effects of a silver nanocluster and silica composite coating applied to air filters and textiles. This study targeted several respiratory viruses, including Flu A and RSV.
Our findings revealed that this innovative coating effectively inactivated both Flu A and RSV viruses, showing strong virucidal properties. However, it did not show the same effectiveness against Human Rhinovirus (HRV).
These results highlight the potential for using such coated air filters to improve indoor air safety amid viral outbreaks.

Keeping well during cold and flu season! Everyone around me, including my wife and classmates, has been ill, but I've managed to stay healthy. Daily multivitamins were helpful initially, but when I started to feel unwell, I tried Sovereign Silver. Within two days, I was back to normal. If I stop taking it, I notice I'm likely to become ill again. This is just anecdotal evidence for some, but it’s been my experience, prompting me to stock up!
