Antiviral activity of the polyphenol complex from seagrass of the Zosteraceae family against highly pathogenic strain of the tick-borne encephalitis virus was studied on passaged culture of porcine embryo kidney cells. The antiviral effect of the test compound manifested in a decrease in the infectious titer of the virus and depended on the concentration and application schemes. Polyphenol complex in a concentration of 100 μg/ml suppressed accumulation of the pathogen in the cell culture: pretreatment of the virus reduced its titer by 4 log, pretreatment of cells by 1.4 log, and application of the compound 1 h after cell infection by 2.8 log. Antiviral action of the test compound is determined by direct inactivation of the virus and inhibition of virus replication at the early stage, which attests to potential of this compound in the treatment of tick-borne encephalitis.

D000818 Animals Unicellular or multicellular, heterotrophic organisms, that have sensation and the power of voluntary movement. Under the older five kingdom paradigm, Animalia was one of the kingdoms. Under the modern three domain model, Animalia represents one of the many groups in the domain EUKARYOTA.

D000998 Antiviral Agents Agents used in the prophylaxis or therapy of VIRUS DISEASES. Some of the ways they may act include preventing viral replication by inhibiting viral DNA polymerase; binding to specific cell-surface receptors and inhibiting viral penetration or uncoating; inhibiting viral protein synthesis; or blocking late stages of virus assembly.

D013552 Swine Any of various animals that constitute the family Suidae and comprise stout-bodied, short-legged omnivorous mammals with thick skin, usually covered with coarse bristles, a rather long mobile snout, and small tail. Included are the genera Babyrousa, Phacochoerus (wart hogs), and Sus, the latter containing the domestic pig (see SUS SCROFA).
