Bioaerosols Handbook

This comprehensive handbook provides up-to-date knowledge & practical advice from established authorities in aerosol science. It covers the principles & practices of bioaerosol sampling, descriptions & comparisons of bioaerosol samplers, calibration methods, & assay techniques, with an emphasis on practicalities, such as which sampler to use & where it should be placed. The text also offers critiques concerning handling the samples to provide representative & meaningful assays for their viability, infectivity, & allergenicity. A wide range of microbes-viz., viruses, bacteria, fungi & pollens, & their fragments-are considered from such perspectives. Bioaerosols Handbook is divided into four parts, providing a wide-ranging reference work, as well as a practical guide on how best to sample & assay bioaerosols using current technology.Cox, C. S. is the author of 'Bioaerosols Handbook' with ISBN 9780873716154 and ISBN 0873716159.
