Measurement of Aerosol Particles from Vibrated Lab Coats

open access: yesToxics
A study was conducted to measure aerosol particles emitted from laboratory coats (lab coats) under vibration, comparing them with a suit and a shirt. This study focused on particles ranging from 0.3 μm to >10 μm. Experimental results showed that lab coat

Detection of airborne Campylobacter with three bioaerosol samplers for alarming bacteria transmission in broilers. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2011
In an airborne transmission experiment, Campylobacter in the air was sampled by three types of bioaerosol samplers (all-glass impinger AGI-30, Andersen six-stage impactor, and OMNI-3000) in four broiler rooms.
