Title: Effect of Environmental Conditions on SARS-CoV-2 Stability in Human Nasal Mucus and Sputum Cord-id: 4819g00y Document date: 2020_9_25
ID: 4819g00y
Snippet: We found that environmental conditions affect the stability of severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus 2 in nasal mucus and sputum. The virus is more stable at low-temperature and low-humidity conditions, whereas warmer temperature and higher humidity shortened half-life. Although infectious virus was undetectable after 48 hours, viral RNA remained detectable for 7 days.
