Characterisation of Particle Size and Viability of SARS-CoV-2 Aerosols from a Range of Nebuliser Types Using a Novel Sampling Technique

open access: yesViruses, 2022
Little is understood about the impact of nebulisation on the viability of SARS-CoV-2. In this study, a range of nebulisers with differing methods of aerosol generation were evaluated to determine SARS-CoV-2 viability following aerosolization. The aerosol

Searches for New Particles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
The status of searches for new particles and new physics during the past year at the Fermilab Tevatron, at HERA and at LEP is summarized. A discussion of the hints for the Standard Model Higgs boson from LEP2 data is presented.

ELEMENTARY PARTICLES [PDF]

open access: yesProceedings of the National Academy of Sciences, 1964
In this brief survey I am going to borrow some ideas from a lengthy review prepared in collaboration with Murray Gell-Mann and Arthur Rosenfeld for publication elsewhere.* In the title of our article we have used the term “particle” but have carefully avoided the adjective “elementary”. Had the title of my paper here today been of my choosing, I should

How Is Indoor Air Quality during Sleep? A Review of Field Studies

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
This review aimed to provide an overview of the characterisation of indoor air quality (IAQ) during the sleeping period, based only on real life conditions’ studies where, at least, one air pollutant was considered.

Simultaneous Monitoring of Particle-Bound PAHs Inside a Low-Energy School Building and Outdoors over Two Weeks in France

open access: yesAtmosphere, 2021
The emergence of new super-insulated buildings to reduce energy consumption can lead to a degradation of the indoor air quality. While some studies were carried out to assess the air quality in these super-insulated buildings, they were usually focused ...

The effect of phagocytosis of poly(L-lactic acid) fragments on cellular morphology and viability [PDF]

open access: yes, 1993
The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of phagocytosed poly(L-lactic acid) particles on the morpholgy and viability of phagocytes, mainly macrophages. Therefore, predegraded poly(L-lactic acid) (P-PLLA) and nontreated PLLA (N-PLLA) particles,
