A comparison of rml prion inactivation efficiency by heterogeneous and homogeneous photocatalysis

HIGHLIGHTS

• What: In this study the efficacy of photo-Fenton-based as well as with TiO2 in reducing mouse scrapie infectivity was evaluated. inactivation was assessed by means of a bioassay and the results were confirmed by in vitro experiments. The authors report the results on both the homogeneous (FeCl3 ) and heterogeneous (TiO2 ) photocatalytic degradation of PrP and RML infectivity in aqueous suspensions (brain homogenates) to simulate prion as a contaminant in medical liquid wastewater effluents and evaluate the applicability of photocatalytic prion degradation in liquid waste originating from pathological and biochemical laboratories. Initial in_vitro experiments were carried . . .
