Accurate airborne virus monitoring is important for preventing the spread of infectious diseases. Although standard reverse transcription-quantitative polymerase chain reaction (RT-qPCR) can efficiently detect viral ribonucleic acid (RNA), it cannot...

Although the associations between a patient's body mass index (BMI) and metabolic diseases, as well as their breath test results, have been studied, the relationship between breath hydrogen/methane levels and...

Capturing virus aerosols in a small volume of liquid is essential when monitoring airborne viruses. As such, aerosol-to-hydrosol enrichment is required to produce a detectable viral sample for real-time quantitative...

Point-of-care risk assessment (PCRA) for airborne viruses requires a system that can enrich low-concentration airborne viruses dispersed in field environments into a small volume of liquid. In this study, airborne...

Rapid monitoring of biological particulate matter (Bio-PM, bioaerosols) requires an enrichment technique for concentrating the Bio-PM dispersed in the air into a small volume of liquid. In this study, an...

Recently, various studies have reported the prevention and treatment of respiratory infection outbreaks caused by lethal viruses. Consequently, a variety of air filters coated with antimicrobial agents have been developed...

Simultaneous improvement in detection speed and reliability is critical for bioaerosol monitoring. Recent rapid detection strategies exhibit difficulties with misinterpretation due to signal interference from co-existing nonbiological particles, whereas biomolecular...
