A scoping review on bio-aerosols in healthcare and the dental environment

PLoS ONE, 2017
Background Bio-aerosols originate from different sources and their potentially pathogenic nature may form a hazard to healthcare workers and patients. So far no extensive review on existing evidence regarding bio-aerosols is available.

Paper-based electrochemical immunosensor for label-free detection of multiple avian influenza virus antigens using flexible screen-printed carbon nanotube-polydimethylsiloxane electrodes

Scientific Reports, 2022
Many studies have been conducted on measuring avian influenza viruses and their hemagglutinin (HA) antigens via electrochemical principles; most of these studies have used gold electrodes on ceramic, glass, or silicon substrates, and/or labeling for ...

Long-Term Measurement of PM2.5 Mass Concentration Using an Electrostatic Particle Concentrator-Based Quartz Crystal Microbalance Integrated With Carbon Dioxide Aerosol Jets for PM Sensing in Remote Areas

IEEE Access, 2021
Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is a major environmental health risk. Several instruments based on the quartz crystal microbalance (QCM) have been developed for PM2.5 measurement because of their accurate, sensitive, real-time, and low-cost mass ...

Aerosols in current and future Arctic climate

Nature Climate Change, 2021
Mechanisms of Arctic amplification and Arctic climate change are difficult to pinpoint, and current climate models do not represent the complex local processes and feedbacks at play, in particular for aerosol–climate interactions.
