Titanium dioxide (TiO2) that had been irradiated with visible light (VL) was demonstrated to inactivate rotavirus, astrovirus, and feline calicivirus (FCV). The virus titers were dramatically reduced after exposure for 24 hrs to the VL-catalytic TiO2. The addition of bovine serum albumin could prote...
