The large-scale use of alcohol (OH)-based disinfectants to control pathogenic viruses is of great concern because of their side effects on humans and harmful impact on the environment. There is an urgent need to develop safe and environmentally friendly disinfectants. Essential oils (EOs) are generally recognized as safe (GRAS) by the FDA, and many exhibit strong antiviral efficacy against pathogenic human enveloped viruses. The present study investigated the virucidal disinfectant activity of solutions containing EO and OH against DENV-2 and CHIKV, which were used as surrogate viruses for human pathogenic enveloped viruses. The quantitative suspension test was used. A solution containing 12% EO + 10% OH reduced > 4.0 log10 TCID50(100% reduction) of both viruses within 1 min of exposure. In addition, solutions containing 12% EO and 3% EO without OH reduced > 4.0 log10 TCID50of both viruses after 10 min and 30 min of exposure, respectively. The binding affinities of 42 EO compounds and viral envelope proteins were investigated through docking analyses. Sesquiterpene showed the highest binding affinities (from −6.7 to −8.0 kcal/mol) with DENV-2 E and CHIKV E1-E2-E3 proteins. The data provide a first step toward defining the potential of EOs as disinfectants.
