In silico molecular docking studies of certain commercially available flavonoids as effective antiviral agents against spike glycoprotein of SARS-CoV-2.

Objective: Coronaviruses are large, enveloped, positive-stranded RNA viruses. These viruses contain spike-like projections of glycoprotein on their surface, which appear like a crown. Millions of infections and thousands of deaths have been reported worldwide to date.
