Vesicular stomatitis virus (VSV) was incubated with pyrene dodecanoic acid (P12), a fluorescent derivative of a medium-chain length fatty acid, and subjected to irradiation with a long wavelength ultra-violet light source at 366 nm (UVA). This inactivated the virus, resulting in a drastic decrease of its infectivity. The virus inactivation was proportional to the concentration of the pyrene-fatty acid, the length of exposure of the virus to P12 and the irradiation dose.

D014466 Ultraviolet Rays That portion of the electromagnetic spectrum immediately below the visible range and extending into the x-ray frequencies. The longer wavelengths (near-UV or biotic or vital rays) are necessary for the endogenous synthesis of vitamin D and are also called antirachitic rays; the shorter, ionizing wavelengths (far-UV or abiotic or extravital rays) are viricidal, bactericidal, mutagenic, and carcinogenic and are used as disinfectants.
