Show abstract

SARS-CoV-2 transmission occurs via airborne droplets and surface contamination. We show tiles coated with TiO2 120 days previously can inactivate SARS-CoV-2 under ambient indoor lighting with 87% reduction in titres at 1h and complete loss by 5h exposure. TiO2 coatings could be an important tool in containing SARS-CoV-2.
