The present invention concerns novel mediators of the activity of picornavirus 3C protease and the modulation of the activity of other similar proteins. The modulators may be used in pharmaceutical compositions either for inhibition of 3C protease (for example in viral infections) or for the enhancement of the activity of proteins similar to the 3C protease such as Apopain (for induction of apoptosis).
An object of the present invention is to provide an antiviral wiper having excellent antiviral activity and excellent storage stability.
The antiviral wiper according to an embodiment of the present invention is an antiviral wiper having a base fabric and a liquid agent with which the base fabric is impregnated.
The content of a cellulosic fiber in the base fabric is equal to or lower than 70% by mass with respect to the total mass of fibers constituting the base fabric.
The liquid agent is alkaline and contains a compound X having a pKa of 7.0 to 15.0 and a solvent containing at least an alcohol, and the content of the alcohol is 40% to 100% by mass with respect to the total mass of the solvent.
