dc.description Abstract en_US
dc.description.abstract Herpes simplex viruses (HSV) establish lifelong infections, and the virus cannot yet be eradicated from the body. The HSV-2 type is one of the most frequent sexually transmitted infections worldwide with global estimates of 536 million infected people and an annual incidence of 23.6 million cases [1]. In this presentation, the antiviral potential of oxide semiconductors as antiviral agents will be discussed [2-4]. Oxygen vacancies are employed as adhesion sites of glycoproteins on the surface of the capsid and bind the virus effectively. It will be shown that oxid semiconductors can have a prophylactic, therapeutic as well as neutralizing effect. It will be explained how irradiation of UV-light can even increase the antiviral activity. en_US
