Abstract

Lianrong Wang, Engui Zhao, Sijie Chen and co-workers (article number 2101770) develop a novel membrane-targeting photosensitizer (DTTPB) with aggregation-induced emission characteristics for efficient photodynamic inactivation of human coronaviruses. DTTPB can bind to the envelope of human coronaviruses and sensitize the production of reactive oxygen species, which can effectively inactivate human coronaviruses upon white-light irradiation.
