Abstract

Since recognition of HIV, many scientists in several branches have attempted to inactive it. Although different methods are available to destroy it, but these methods may damage vital cells too. This paper suggests a theoretical method to paralyze only HIV. The virus contains certain glycoprotein (gp120) which permits HIV to attach receptor host cell (CD4). Applying a sinusoidal electric field with a definite frequency makes gp120 to oscillate. This periodic electric field is superposed with another electromagnetic signal with plasma frequency to shock gp120 and causes separation of gp120 from HIV, consequently causes Paralysation of HIV.

Keywords: HIV, gp120, electromagnetic signal, periodic electric field, plasma frequency
