{Note: Appropriate concentrations to use need to be verified) Disinfecting with sodium hypochlorite: "Based on the EPA List N: Disinfectants for Use Against SARS-CoV-2 products, 2500 ppm (0.25%) for 5 minutes is effective. Most readily available bleach is approximately 6% so 2/3 cup of bleach per gallon of cold tap water (1:24 dilution) for 5 minutes is appropriate." "If a lower concentration of bleach is desired, the EPA standard disinfection rate for hypochlorite products is 600 ppm for 10 minutes."

As several EPA approved sanitizers against SARS-CoV-2 are commonly used by food processors, these compounds are primarily discussed as much of the industry already has them on site and is familiar with their application and use. Specifically, we focused on the effects of alcohols, povidone iodine, quaternary ammonium compounds, hydrogen peroxide, sodium hypochlorite (NaOCl), peroxyacetic acid (PAA), chlorine dioxide, ozone, ultraviolet light, metals, and plant-based antimicrobials. This review highlights the differences in the resistance or susceptibility of different strains of coronaviruses, or similar viruses, to these antimicrobial agents."

Anticancer and Antiviral Activity of Chlorine Dioxide by Its Induction of the Reactive Oxygen Species | Semantic Scholar
****!!!!*** Chlorine dioxide has been used for a disinfectant by exhibiting antimicrobial activity and is also potent to kill insect pests infesting stored grains. This study aimed to extend the usefulness of chlorine dioxide with respect to anticancer and antiviral activities. Cytotoxicity of chlorine dioxide was assessed against five different human cancer cell lines. Chlorine dioxide exhibited significant cytotoxicity against two breast cancer cell lines (MCF-7, MDA-MB-231) and three colorectal cancer cell lines (LoVo, HCT-116, SW-480). This cytotoxicity appeared to be associated with the capacity of chlorine dioxide to induce the production of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Compared to control insect cell lines, the cancer cell lines possessed much higher levels of ROS. On the other hand, a treatment of an antioxidant, vitamin E, significantly reduced the cytotoxicity, suggesting that the cytotoxicity was induced by high levels of ROS production. Chlorine dioxide exhibited antiviral activity against different viruses. A baculovirus, Autographa californica nuclear polyhedrosis virus (AcNPV), is a dsDNA insect virus and lost its viral activity to form polyhedral viral particles in response to chlorine dioxide. The antiviral activity against AcNPV was dependent on the incubation time with chlorine dioxide. Tobacco mosaic virus is a ssRNA plant virus and was reduced in its population after exposure to chlorine dioxide along with significant decrease of viral symptoms. These results indicate that chlorine dioxide possesses anticancer and antiviral activities probably due to its inducing activity of ROS production.

Exploration of reaction rates of chlorine dioxide with tryptophan residue in oligopeptides and proteins--《Journal of Environmental Sciences》2020
Exploration of reaction rates of chlorine dioxide with tryptophan residue in oligopeptides and proteins--《Journal of Environmental Sciences》2020
****!!!!****!!!!*** 2020. "reaction rate constants of ClO_2 with tryptophan residues in five heptapeptides and four proteins using stopped-flow or competition kinetic method.Each heptapeptide and protein contain only one tryptophan residue and the reactivity of tryptophan residue with ClO_2 was lower than that of free tryptophan (3.88×10~4 (mol/L)~(-1) sec~(-1) at pH 7.0).The neighboring amino acid residues affected the reaction rates through promoting inter-peptide aggregation,changing electron density,shifting pK_a values or inducing electron transfer via redox reactions.A single amino acid residue difference in oligopeptides can make the reaction rate constants differ by over 60%(e.g.3.01×10~4 (mol/L)~(-1) sec~(-1) for DDDWNDD and 1.85×10~4 (mol/L)~(-1) sec~(-1)for DDDWDDD at pH 7.0 (D:aspartic acid,W:tryptophan,N:asparagine)).The reaction rates of tryptophan-containing oligopeptides were also highly pH-dependent with higher reactivity for deprotonated tryptophan than the neutral specie.Tryptophan residues in proteins spanned a 4-fold range reactivity toward ClO_2 (i.e.0.84×10~4 (mol/L)~(-1) sec~(-1) for ribonuclease T1 and 3.21×10~4 (mol/L)~(-1) sec~(-1) for melittin at pH 7.0) with accessibility to the oxidant as the determinating factor.The local environment surrounding the tryptophan residue in proteins can also accelerate the reaction rates by increasing the electron density of the indole ring of tryptophan or inhibit the reaction rates by inducing electron transfer reactions."

"The content determination and disinfection effect evaluation of a chlorine dioxide solution"
2020. {Testing of various formulations on various organisms} "average concentration of chlorine dioxide in the high and low test groups was 224.1 mg/L and 75.2 mg/L, respectively. There was no significant difference between the average concentration of the high and low concentration groups and their theoretical concentrations, and the results of the chlorine dioxide content determinations were consistent with their theoretical concentrations. The average of the 5 measurement concentrations of the combined sodium chlorate powder dissolver in the control group was in the theoretical concentration (380 to 460 mg/L). Therefore, the improved five-step iodine measurement results are accurate, and the method can be used as an effective detection method for chlorine dioxide disinfectant products. The results of the qualitative quantitative killing test of chlorine dioxide solution on four bacteria showed that when the effective concentration of chlorine dioxide solution was 3.12 mg/L, it had a 1 min effect on E. coli 8099, and the kill rate was 99.90 %, 10 min for Staphylococcus aureus ATCC6538, the killing rate reached 99.97 percent, the effect on type B hemolytic streptococcus 32210 30 min, the killing rate reached 100%; The effective concentration was 12.5 mg/L, which was 10 min for bacillus 63501, and the kill rate was 100%. Chlorine dioxide solution sterilization effect is good, and with the compound sodium chlorate powder sterilization effect is similar, and the sterilization effect is much better than ammonium methyl bromide solution. The results of the killing test of chlorine dioxide solution on swine fever virus showed that chlorine dioxide solution and compound sodium chlorate powder dissolver with concentration of 25 mg/L were able to achieve 100% inactivation rate when the Thiveral strain of swine fever virus was 3 min, indicating that the chlorine dioxide solution had good effect on swine plague virus eradication and similar effect to the pig plague virus."

The purpose of this paper is to study the inhibition of chlorine dioxide to the respiratory function of white Candida and its correspondence with the sterilization effect. Methods: Ultra-microstructure observation, flow cytometer detection, oxygen consumption determination and flat plate culture. Results Chlorine dioxide has no obvious damage effect on the structure and shape of the mitochondria of white candida, but the cross-membrane potential of mitochondria will gradually collapse with the increase of chlorine dioxide dose. The inhibition degree of aerobic breathing was positively correlated with the mortality rate of the bacteria, but not equal, and the inhibition rate of breathing under various acting conditions was always significantly lower than that of the bacteria. There was no significant difference in mortality detected by anaerobic culture and aerobic culture after chlorine dioxide. Conclusion: The experimental results show that chlorine dioxide has obvious damage effect on the organelles of eclectic cells and is positively correlated with mortality, but respiratory suppression may not be the primary cause of bacterial death."
