Filoviruses are able to infect via the respiratory route and are lethal at very low doses in experimental animal models, but there is minimal information on how well the filoviruses survive within aerosol particles. There is also little known about how well filoviruses survive in liquids or on solid surfaces which is important in management of patients or samples that have been exposed to filoviruses.Zitat aus dem obigen pdf.
Methods and Results: Filoviruses were tested for their ability to survive in different liquids and on different solid substrates at different temperatures. The decay rates of filoviruses in a dynamic aerosol were also determined.
Conclusions: Our study has shown that Lake Victoria marburgvirus (MARV) and Zaire ebolavirus (ZEBOV) can survive for long periods in different liquid media and can also be recovered from plastic and glass surfaces at low temperatures for over 3 weeks. The decay rates of ZEBOV and Reston ebolavirus (REBOV) plus MARV within a dynamic aerosol were calculated. ZEBOV and MARV had similar decay rates, whilst REBOV showed significantly better survival within an aerosol.

This study has shown that human pathogenic filoviruses may survive in an aerosol in the dark to detectable levels for at least 1·5 h.Klingt ernster als CDC usw bisher klangen.
If filoviruses were deliberately (Borio et al. 2002; Leffel and Reed 2004), or accidentally aerosolized during normal laboratory or clinical practices (Dimmick et al. 1973; Bennett and Parks 2006), they may pose a significant threat to humans, as they are able to remain infectious over a significant period of time. The results presented in this study are able to provide basic survival data on which hazard management, risk assessments, decontamination and control measures can be implemented to help prevent infection and transmission of disease.
