Source  Bacillus subtilis



Activity Information


Target Organism  HSV-2

Assay  Plaque formation assay

Activity 

  • [Ref.25087911]herpes simplex virus type 2(HSV-2): inhibition of viral replication in Vero cells(90% inhibition at 25 μg/mL,EC50= 18.2μg/mL).

Hemolytic Activity  No hemolysis information or data found in the reference(s) presented in this entry

Cytotoxicity 

  • [Ref.25087911]Vero cells: CC50=316.8 μg/mL.

Binding Target  Not found

Mechanism  Subtilosin displays antiviral and virucidal actions against HSV-2. The target of subtilosin inhibitory effect would be late stages of the viral replicative cycle such as viral glycoprotein intracellular transport.
