The results of the research were assessed based on the increase in CT Value of real-time PCR (RT-PCR) test, the increased value of Optical Density MTT test, and prevented the appearance of cytopathic effect (CPE) on cell culture. Per-inhalation toxicity trials on mice showed no clinical, pathological and histopathological changes in mice tested.
