Viruses that affect humans, animals and plants are often dispersed and transmitted through
airborne routes of infection. Due to current technological deficiencies, accurate …

Air-transmissible pathogenic viruses, such as influenza viruses and coronaviruses, are
some of the most fatal strains and spread rapidly by air, necessitating quick and stable …

To better understand the underlying mechanisms of aerovirology, accurate sampling of
airborne viruses is fundamental. The sampling instruments commonly used in aerobiology …

Aims: The aerosolization and collection of submicrometre and ultrafine virus particles were
studied with the objective of developing robust and accurate methodologies to study …

Collection efficiencies of four bioaerosol samplers (Andersen impactor, AGI-30 impinger,
gelatin filter, and nuclepore filter) were evaluated for virus-containing aerosols. Four different …

As a first step in conducting studies of airborne influenza transmission, we compared the
collection performance of an SKC Biosampler, a compact cascade impactor (CCI), Teflon …

Viruses are responsible for a variety of diseases in humans as well as animals of economic
importance. Although consumption of virus‐contaminated water and food is known to result …

Although laboratory generated virus aerosols have been widely studied in terms of infectivity
and survivability, how they are related to particle size, especially in the submicron size …

Airborne transmission occurs through droplet-mediated transport of viruses following the
expulsion of an aerosol by an infected host. Transmission efficiency results from the …

Bioaerosol sampling is an essential and integral part of any bioaerosol investigation. Since
bioaerosols are very diverse in terms of their sizes, species, biological properties, and …
