Colorless to white crystals or crystalline powder

Sodium ammonium phosphate tetrahydrate is an inorganic compound that is a salt. It is used as a test compound to measure the inhibition of viral growth. The test compound binds to the virus and prevents it from binding to cells, thus inhibiting viral replication. Sodium ammonium phosphate tetrahydrate can also be used as a means of preventing cavities by lowering the pH level in the mouth and inhibiting bacterial growth. Selenium compounds have been shown to have antiviral properties when tested on the typhimurium virus. Selenium compounds are not active against herpes simplex virus, but protocatechuic acid has been shown to inhibit herpes simplex virus replication in vitro and in vivo. Protocatechuic acid has also been shown to inhibit fatty acid synthesis and chloride ion uptake into cells, which may be responsible for its anti-viral properties.
