Abstract:
... Collection fluids used in liquid-based bioaerosol samplers can influence the viability of microorganisms. In this study we determined the recovery efficiency of vegetative E. coli O157:H7 cells that were spiked into low viscosity evaporating collection fluids during operation of a BioSampler™ for up to 90 min at room temperature. The collection fluids tested were distilled (DI) water, phosphate-bu ...
