- Environmental MicrobiologyTransformative Approach To Investigate the Microphysical Factors Influencing Airborne Transmission of Pathogens
A transformative approach to identify the physicochemical processes that impact the biological decay rates of bacteria in aerosol droplets is described. It is shown that the evaporation process and changes in the phase and morphology of the aerosol particle during evaporation impact microorganism viability. The equilibrium droplet size was found to affect airborne bacterial viability. Furthermore, the presence of...
