This article is a Preprint
Preprints are preliminary research reports that have not been certified by peer review. They should not be relied on to guide clinical practice or health-related behavior and should not be reported in news media as established information.
Preprints posted online allow authors to receive rapid feedback and the entire scientific community can appraise the work for themselves and respond appropriately. Those comments are posted alongside the preprints for anyone to read them and serve as a post publication assessment.

ABSTRACT
Supernatants of cells infected with SARS-CoV-2, nasopharyngeal and sera samples containing SARS-CoV-2 were submitted to heat inactivation for various periods of time, ranging from 30 seconds to 60 minutes. Our results showed that SARS-CoV-2 could be inactivated in less than 30 minutes, 15 minutes and 3 minutes at 56{degrees}C, 65{degrees}C and 95{degrees}C respectively. These data could help laboratory workers to improve their protocols with handling of the virus in biosafety conditions.
