Antiviral Activity of trans -Hexenoic Acid against Coxsackievirus B and Enterovirus A71

Abstract

Enterovirus infections are life-threatening viral infections which occur mainly among children and are possible causes of viral outbreak. Until now, treatment and management of infections caused by members of the genus Enterovirus largely depended on supportive care, and no antiviral medications are currently approved for the treatment of most of these infections.
