A simple novel device for air sampling by electrokinetic capture
BACKGROUND A variety of different sampling devices are currently available to acquire air samples for the study of the microbiome of the air. All have a degree of technical complexity that limits deployment. Here, we evaluate the use of a novel device, which has no technical complexity and is easily deployable. RESULTS An air-cleaning device powered by electrokinetic propulsion has been adapt...
متن کاملA Simple Device for Gravimetric Sampling.
In view of the increased importance attached to the gravimetric sampling of airborne dust in mines and other working places, it was recently decided to start regular gravimetric sampling in the experimental animal dusting rooms in this Unit. As no suitable sampling instrument was available, a Hexhlet dust sampler was modified by fitting it with a probe in place of the elutriator. This instrumen...
متن کاملA microfluidic device for array patterning by perpendicular electrokinetic focusing
This paper describes a microfluidic chip in which two perpendicular laminar-flow streams can be operated to sequentially address the surface of a flowchamber with semi-parallel sample streams. The sample streams can be controlled in position and width by the method of electrokinetic focusing. For this purpose, each of the two streams is sandwiched by two parallel sheath flow streams containing ...
متن کاملA Novel and Simple Method for HCV Genotyping
Hepatitis C virus (HCV) is a major global health problem and one of the most common causes of chronic liver diseases. The current study was carried out to investigate the ability of High Resolution Melting (HRM) method in HCV genotyping. 40 HCV-Positive sera with unknown and 12 sera with known HCV genotypes were collected from different clinical laboratories in Tehran as well as Rasht in north ...
متن کاملSimple liquid scrubber for large-volume air sampling.
A new large-volume air sampler called the "simple liquid scrubber" is described. It can recover a high percentage of microorganisms from large volumes of air, up to 950 liters/min, and concentrate them into a small volume of liquid at a ratio of about 400,000 to 1. The principle of operation of the scrubber is based on the production of a fine mist in a rapidly moving airstream with ultimate co...
