Highlights Viable Delta Variant SARS-CoV-2 collected from air samples in a residential environment. SARS-CoV-2 detected in an area of a single-family dwelling distant from an isolation suite occupied by COVID-19 patient. Assessment of air samples and surface swab samples by rRT-qPCR and cell culture for SARS-CoV-2. Employment of air samplers functioning based on different collection ...
As we reach our one year anniversary of COVID-19 (or pass it, depending on who’s tracking it), aerosol researchers are still working to convince the world that SARs-CoV-2 is transmitted largely through the air. This is the largest list of eminent experts (363) from around the world, requesting the Canadian officials take the overwhelming evidence seriously and suggest seven key activities ...
The Centers for Disease Control and Prevention now says COVID-19 can be spread through airborne transmission according to updated guidance on the agency’s website.

John Lednicky, Research Professor at Environmental and Global Health, University of Florida and his research team, found infectious virus can spread through the air- up to 16 feet away from an infected patient – through aerosols. Per the paper, published on August 12th, 2020, this experiment was performed using the Aerosol Devices ...
Last week our University of Colorado Boulder research collaborators were featured in the news using our BioSpot-VIVIAS sampler. Mark Hernandez, who directs the Environmental Engineering Microbiology and Disinfection Lab at the University of Colorado, and his team are researching to find ways to disinfect the air and surfaces to kill COVID-19 in inclosed spaces.
