Firewood residential heating – local versus remote influence on the aerosol burden [PDF]

open access: yesAtmospheric Chemistry and Physics, 2021
We report the first-time use of the Lagrangian particle dispersion model (LPDM) FLEXPART to simulate isotope ratios of the biomass burning tracer levoglucosan.

Testing Filter-Based Air Cleaners with Surrogate Particles for Viruses and Exhaled Droplets

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2022
Indoor air cleaners can contribute to reducing infection risks by the filtration of virus-carrying droplets. There are various national standards to test indoor air cleaners that determine the clean air delivery rate (CADR), but typically only as a size ...

Characterization of Vaginal Escherichia coli Isolated from Pregnant Women in Two Different African Sites [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
The relevance of vaginal colonization of pregnant women by Escherichia coli is poorly understood, despite these strains sharing a similar virulence profile with other extraintestinal pathogenic E.

Effect of an Aerosol Dryer on Ambient PM Measurements with SDS011 Low Cost Sensors during a Two-year Period in Duisburg, Germany

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2023
The performance of low-cost particulate matter (PM) sensors (NovaFitness SDS011) in connection with a self-developed aerosol dryer has been investigated in ambient air measurements over a two-year period by comparing the reported mass concentration of ...

Investigation of the Effect of Aerosolized TiO2 Nanoparticles on the NO2 Concentrations under UVA Exposure

open access: yesAerosol and Air Quality Research, 2021
Engineered nanomaterials (ENM) are utilized and produced during many engineering processes. However, they may generate airborne nanoparticles during different phases of their life cycles. TiO2, which is known for its photocatalytic properties, especially

New Perspective on Planar Inductive Sensors: Radio-Frequency Refractometry for Highly Sensitive Quantification of Magnetic Nanoparticles

open access: yesSensors, 2023
We demonstrate how resonant planar coils may be used as sensors to detect and quantify magnetic nanoparticles reliably. A coil’s resonant frequency depends on the adjacent materials’ magnetic permeability and electric permittivity.

Validation of the silicon nanoparticle production on the pilot plant scale via long-term gas-phase synthesis using a microwave plasma reactor

open access: yesApplications in Energy and Combustion Science, 2023
The formation of crystalline silicon nanoparticles by homogeneous gas-phase reactions as a direct way to produce high-purity raw material is applied. For this purpose, a microwave-assisted plasma reactor is used.

Phylogeny, Resistome, and Virulome of Escherichia coli Causing Biliary Tract Infections [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
Escherichia coli is the most frequent Gram-negative bacilli involved in intra-abdominal infections. However, despite high mortality rates associated with biliary tract infections due to E. coli, there is no study focusing on this pathogen. In this study,

The adherent/invasive escherichia coli (AIEC) strain LF82 invades and persists in human prostate cell lineRWPE-1 activating a strong inflammatory response [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Adherent/invasive Escherichia coli (AIEC) strains have recently been receiving increased attention because they are more prevalent and persistent in the intestine of Crohn's disease (CD) patients than in healthy subjects.
