This thesis is about the spread of viruses around us and different physical methods for their detection, inactivation and control. The paper will cover existing techniques such as microscopy, spectroscopy and nanoparticle-based methods for virus detection. In addition, existing physical methods such as heat treatment, ultraviolet irradiation and plasma-based technologies, which are effectively used against various viruses. In the thesis, you will learn about existing and developed physical approaches such as cold atmospheric plasma and strategies based on nanotechnology. The conclusions drawn from all this will help us study viruses and create an insight into the potential of physical methods in the fight against viral infections.
