The paper provides the evidence suggesting that the disinfectant neoaquasept (NA) obtained by using sodium salt of dichlorisocyanuric acid has virucidal activity against ectromelia virus in BALB/c mice. Three concentrations of NA were tested. The recommended application rate and concentration of the disinfectant is 3 and 10 times higher. NA was demonstrated to decrease the degenerative changes of the liver and spleen and increases the survival of the animals infected with ectromelia virus. It is proposed to use the water disinfected with NA as a preventive agent in the spread foci of various infections.
