Abstract: The present disclosure provides a method preparing Silver-nanocurcumin material for inhibiting new coronavirus. The turmeric powder is heated and stirred and then mixed with silver nitrate solution. After multiple steps of cooling, stirring for reaction and centrifuging and other steps, crude extract of Silver-nanocurcumin is obtained. Then, after further processes such as the multiple washing and centrifuging, a purified composition of Silver-nanocurcumin is obtained. The composition of Silver-nanocurcumin can be used to inhibit the new coronavirus and its similar viruses, and as a source of drugs for the prevention and treatment of diseases derived from the new coronavirus COVID-19 in the future.
Abstract: Pan-coronavirus vaccines for inducing efficient, powerful and long-lasting protection against all Coronaviruses infections and diseases, comprising multiple highly conserved large sequences which may comprise one or more conserved B, CD4 and CD8 T cell epitopes that help provide multiple targets for the body to develop an immune response for preventing a Coronavirus infection and/or disease. In certain embodiments, the large sequences are conserved proteins or large sequences, e.g., sequences that are highly conserved among human coronaviruses and/or animal coronaviruses (e.g., coronaviruses isolated from animals susceptible to coronavirus infections).
Abstract: This disclosure provides multimeric binding molecules that bind to a human coronavirus, e.g., MERS-CoV, SARS-CoV or SARS-CoV-2.
