E.W. Rice et al. Chlorine Inactivation of Highly Pathogenic Avian Influenza Virus (H5N1). EID Volume 13, Number 10–October 2007
To determine resistance of highly pathogenic avian influenza (H5N1) virus to chlorination, we exposed allantoic fluid containing 2 virus strains to chlorinated buffer at pH 7 and 8, at 5°C. Free chlorine concentrations typically used in drinking water treatment are sufficient to inactivate the virus by >3 orders of magnitude.
