A therapeutic method for reducing the concentration of pathogenic viral and/or prion particles in body tissue and fluids, applicable in vivo to a patient or in vitro to a transfusable body fluid or transplantable body part, comprises administering to the patient, body fluid or body part an effective amount of a non-toxic active agent selected from cystine, oxidised glutathione, lower alkyl/alkenyl cysteine sulfoxides, and salts thereof, and while the non-toxic agent is present administering to the patient, body fluid or body part an effective dose of microwave electromagnetic radiation of frequency in the range of about 400-450 MHz. The method is effective against infective particulate agents such as human immunodeficiency virus (HIV), bovine spongiform encephalopathy (BSE) agent, scrapie agent, hepatitis agent, disseminated sclerosis (MS) agent and Creutzfeld Jacob disease (CJD) agent. |
