High enrichment and near real-time quantification of airborne viruses using a wet-paper-based electrochemical immunosensor under an electrostatic field

Jyoti Bhardwaj et al.

Summary: Conventional airborne virus measurement usually takes a long time. In this study, a near real-time enrichment and quantification system for airborne viruses was developed. The system consists of a wet-paper-based electrochemical immunosensor and a modified electrostatic particle concentrator, which allows for efficient enrichment and measurement of airborne viruses. The system can measure virus particle concentrations every 10 minutes for 60 minutes in horizontal and tilted measurement configurations.

Sensitive and highly rapid electrochemical measurement of airborne coronaviruses through condensation-based direct impaction onto carbon nanotube-coated porous paper working electrodes

Daesoon Lee et al.

Summary: Rapid electrochemical measurement of airborne coronaviruses was achieved through condensation-based direct impaction onto carbon nanotube-coated porous paper working electrodes (PWEs). The 3D porous electrode structure of the PWEs enabled sensitive and rapid detection of whole coronaviruses, and water-encapsulated virus particles were directly measured on the PWEs without virus lysis and elution. The whole detection process took about 10 minutes, including air sampling, at virus concentrations of 1.8 and 11.5 PFU/L of air.

Efficient measurement of airborne viable viruses using the growth-based virus aerosol concentrator with high flow velocities

Junbeom Jang et al.

Summary: This study demonstrated the efficient measurement of airborne MS2 and T3 viruses using a new growth tube collector called the growth-based virus aerosol concentrator (GVC). Compared to traditional GTCs, the GVC has higher flow rates and smaller particle diameters, resulting in high concentration of viruses in the sampling medium. The GVC shows potential for rapid on-site detection of airborne viruses.

High air flow-rate electrostatic sampler for the rapid monitoring of airborne coronavirus and influenza viruses

Hyeong Rae Kim et al.

Summary: Efficient and nondestructive collection of airborne virus particles is essential for monitoring airborne viruses, with a high air flow rate required for quick sample collection. The introduction of a high air flowrate electrostatic sampler allows for continuous collection of virus aerosols in liquid, making it suitable for real-time qRT-PCR detection. A 20-minute air sampling period is sufficient for producing a sample suitable for use in a viral epidemic scenario.
