Efficient collection of viable virus aerosol through laminar-flow, water-based condensational particle growth

摘要

AimsState-of-the-art bioaerosol samplers have poor collection efficiencies for ultrafine virus aerosols. This work evaluated the performance of a novel growth tube collector (GTC), which utilizes laminar-flow water-based condensation to facilitate particle growth, for the collection of airborne MS2 viruses.
