A laminar flow model of aerosol survival of epidemic and non-epidemic strains of Pseudomonas aeruginosa isolated from people with cystic fibrosis [PDF]
Cystic fibrosis (CF) is an inherited multi-system disorder characterised by chronic airway infection with pathogens such as Pseudomonas aeruginosa. Acquisition of P. aeruginosa by patients with CF is usually from the environment, but recent studies have

The Microbiology of the Upper Air. II [PDF]
The collection of micro-organisms from the air at various altitudes has interested observers for a considerable time. Pasteur, one of the first workers in this field, made investigations by climbing the Alps to obtain his samples. More recently the airplane has made it possible for others to make studies on the micro-organisms found in the upper air ...
