Microbiology and atmospheric processes: Biological, physical and chemical characterization of aerosol particles [PDF]

, 2008
The interest in bioaerosols has traditionally been linked to health hazards for humans, animals and plants. However, several components of bioaerosols exhibit physical properties of great significance for cloud processes, such as ice nucleation and cloud

Simultaneous Multi‐Analyte Detection of Viruses in Livestock Using a Multi‐Channel Magnetoelastic Sensor

Advanced Sensor Research, Volume 5, Issue 4, April 2026.
This study presents a portable, smartphone‐linked multi‐channel magnetoelastic sensor for the simultaneous detection of three airborne livestock viruses (H1N1, CSFV, FMDV). The multi‐channel sensor demonstrates linear, virus‐specific frequency shifts over its detection range, and the accuracy of this device is comparable with that of vector network ...

Bioaerosol Emission from Vortex Liquids Contaminated with Escherichia coli Bacteria

Atmosphere
Vortex fluids are often present in natural and artificial aquatic environments and are also widely used in industrial water treatment and product manufacturing processes. Vortex processes have been studied quite extensively; however, little attention has

A Breath of Fresh Air: A Novel Passive Airborne eDNA Approach for Scalable Terrestrial Biodiversity Monitoring

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 4, April 2026.
The study introduces the Nutshell eDNA sampler, an inexpensive, reusable passive device for collecting environmental DNA from air to monitor terrestrial biodiversity. Tested at the Rotterdam Zoo, it detected numerous species and complimented active samplers in identifying zoo animals, continuing to accumulate DNA over longer sampling times and ...

A Controlled Study on the Characterisation of Bioaerosols Emissions from Compost

Atmosphere, 2018
Bioaerosol emissions arising from biowaste treatment are an issue of public concern. To better characterise the bioaerosols, and to assess a range of measurement methods, we aerosolised green waste compost under controlled conditions.

Inhaling to mitigate exhaled bioaerosols [PDF]

Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 2004
Humans commonly exhale aerosols comprised of small droplets of airway-lining fluid during normal breathing. These “exhaled bioaerosols” may carry airborne pathogens and thereby magnify the spread of certain infectious diseases, such as influenza, tuberculosis, and severe acute respiratory syndrome.

Health Insecurity and Occupational Risk Factors Among Urban Waste Collectors in Dhaka City, Bangladesh: A Cross‐Sectional Study

Health Science Reports, Volume 9, Issue 4, April 2026.
ABSTRACT Background and Aims Urban waste collectors play an essential role in maintaining urban sanitation, yet they remain one of the most occupationally vulnerable groups in rapidly urbanizing cities in low‐ and middle‐income countries. In Bangladesh, evidence on their occupational health insecurity and access to healthcare services remains limited ...

Reassessing Global Atmospheric Flux of Dissolved Inorganic Phosphorus With Machine Learning and Earth System Model Outputs

Journal of Geophysical Research: Machine Learning and Computation, Volume 3, Issue 2, April 2026.
Abstract Atmospheric deposition of dissolved inorganic phosphorus (DIP) is crucial to nutrient cycling but remains poorly constrained in chemical transport models (CTMs). Large uncertainties in phosphorus emissions and aerosol dissolution processes challenge the reliable estimates of DIP fluxes.

The Indoor Microbiome: Sampling, Analysis and Emerging Trends

Environmental Microbiology Reports, Volume 18, Issue 2, April 2026.
This systematic review of 106 studies highlights indoor microbiome sampling and analysis methods, dominant bacterial and fungal taxa, and key environmental drivers. Despite progress, methodological inconsistencies hinder comparability, emphasising the need for standardised approaches to advance indoor microbiome research and its influence on health ...

Production Phase Affects the Bioaerosol Microbial Composition and Functional Potential in Swine Confinement Buildings

Animals, 2019
Bioaerosols from swine confinement buildings (SCBs) pose a challenge to public health,and microorganisms within the SCBs bioaerosols originate from swine feces, of which the microbialcomposition is associated with the production phase.
