Fast monitoring of indoor bioaerosol concentrations with ATP bioluminescence assay using an electrostatic rod-type sampler. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2015 A culture-based colony counting method is the most widely used analytical technique for monitoring bioaerosols in both indoor and outdoor environments. However, this method requires several days for colony formation.

Indoor bioaerosol dynamics. [PDF]
Indoor Air, 2016 Inhaling indoor air is the primary means by which humans are exposed to bioaerosols. Considering bacteria, fungi, and viruses, this study reviews the dynamic processes that govern indoor concentrations and fates of biological particulate material. Bioaerosol behavior is strongly coupled to particle size; this study emphasizes the range 0.1-10 μm in ...

Field sampling of indoor bioaerosols [PDF]
Aerosol Science and Technology, 2019 Because bioaerosols are related to adverse health effects in exposed humans and indoor environments represent a unique framework of exposure, concerns about indoor bioaerosols have risen over recent years. One of the major issues in indoor bioaerosol research is the lack of standardization in the methodology, from air sampling strategies and sample ...

Identifying indoor environmental patterns from bioaerosol material using HPLC [PDF]
Analytical and Bioanalytical Chemistry, 2012 A substantial portion of the atmospheric particle budget is of biological origin (human and animal dander, plant and insect debris, etc.). These bioaerosols can be considered information-rich packets of biochemical data specific to the organism of origin.

Contribution of bioaerosol emission from air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation system to indoor bioaerosol concentration [PDF]
, 2018 Human exposure to indoor bioaerosols has been a major health concern indoors. Bioaerosol emission from air-conditioning and mechanical ventilation (ACMV) systems has a potential to be a significant sources of indoor bioaerosols. In order to understand impacts of bioaerosol emission from the ACMV system on indoor occupants, quantification and species ...

Assessment of indoor bioaerosols using a lab-made virtual impactor [PDF]
Aerosol Science and Technology, 2016 To assess indoor bioaerosols, a virtual impactor having 1 µm cutoff diameter was designed, fabricated, and evaluated with computational fluid dynamics simulation and also with laboratory test using polystyrene latex particles. Two other cutoff diameters of 635 nm and 1.5 µm were obtained by changing the inlet flow rate and the ratio of minor channel-to-
