A Taiwanese government-funded research revealed on Tuesday a chemical compound that helped eradicate swine flu and avian flu viruses in the environment. The National Taiwan University (NTU) explained that the compound, which was known as

VirusBom, could be produced into hand wash, a spraying agent like facial masks to kill various viruses effectively. The other forms of the compound are air filters and surgical masks. According to the report published by the World Health Organization, more than 98,000 cases have been detected worldwide and more than 700 death. Indeed, the NTU announcement is very essential to prevent the spread of the swine flu virus.The experts in this field described that the chemical was a simple, organic compound which was developed through synthetic methodology in the lab. Virusbom is different with common antiseptics in the market since Virusbom focuses on the swine and bird flu viruses compared with other products which do not. This special compound helps prevent the virus from entering our body to mingle with our immune system. The experiment conducted in this subject proved that all types of swine flu, avian flu and intestinal diseases were exterminated after being exposed to the Virusbom. The research and development of compounds are focused on external use to fight against weaknesses of virus' surface protein structure. Researchers said that the invention was imperative to human body since swine flu had begun to develop resistance to Tamiflu, the world's major anti-viral flu drug. Further, the expert said that a dose of between 30 and 300 ppm (parts per million) of the compound could destroy the virus and get rid of it without incurring any harm to human cells. This compound is very potential to be developed into a drug, which will need a dose lower than three ppm to work in the human body. The research team has introduced the knowhow of new technology to a local producer and a mass production can be activated after health and environmental regulators have endorsed it. The rapid spread of swine flu in the world is thought to accelerate the commercialization of the technology.
