Core Tip	The severe acute respiratory syndrome-coronavirus 2 (SARS-CoV-2) may interact with monomers of resin composites; triethylene glycol dimethacrylate has the smallest affinity with SARS-CoV-2 among monomers; bisphenol-A glycol dimethacrylate and bisphenol-A ethoxylated dimethacrylate show a remarkable affinity mainly with papain-like protease.
