Electrostatically Enhanced Microbe Collection in the Troposphere and Stratosphere

The biggest challenge in aerobiology is the collection efficiency due to the microbe concentration in the atmosphere. The limited access to air samples has prevented systematic studies and some of the basic questions in the field of aerobiology remains open. The project goal was to develop a prototy...

Zusammenfassung:The biggest challenge in aerobiology is the collection efficiency due to the microbe concentration in the atmosphere. The limited access to air samples has prevented systematic studies and some of the basic questions in the field of aerobiology remains open. The project goal was to develop a prototype system to demonstrate electrostatic precipitation for air microbe sampling.
