In order to control the spread of SARS-CoV-2, effective disinfectants are required, among other
complementary measures such as social distancing and use of personal protective equipment (PPE). The
Department of Homeland Security (DHS) Science and Technology Directorate (S&T) is executing
laboratory studies to evaluate a panel of disinfectants (Table 1) for use against SARS-CoV-2. This
document summarizes current methods and results using 70% isopropyl alcohol (IPA) and 0.26% sodium
hypochlorite (bleach) as of the end of April 2020.
