The Lesson Learned from the COVID-19 Pandemic: Can an Active Chemical Be Effective, Safe, Harmless-for-Humans and Low-Cost at a Time? Evidence on Aerosolized Hypochlorous Acid

Data obtained in this research article showed that HOCl at the dose of 300 ppm did not affect cellular and tissue viability, nor their morphology when tested in vitro. This study showed that nebulized HOCl can prevent virus and bacteria growth without affecting lung and skin tissues, making this compound a perfect candidate to sanitise indoor environments.
