Particulate Removal Efficiency in Arterial Screen Filters
___ ____________ _ Six types of commercially available arterial screen filters ranging from 20 to 40 microns pore size were evaluated for their efficiency in removing particulate matter. Five filters of each of these six commercial types were tested, for a total of thirty filters. Three sizes of polystryene microspheres ranging from 25 to 53 microns in diameter were used to simulate particulate...
متن کاملTesting Air-filtering Systems. I. Procedure for Testing High-efficiency Air Filters on Exhaust Systems.
A procedure was developed for evaluating high-efficiency filters mounted in exhaust ducts at the National Animal Disease Laboratory. An aerosol of the test organism, Escherichia coli B T(3) bacteriophage, was generated in a chamber attached to a ceiling exhaust register in concentrations of at least 1000 viable organisms per ft(3) of air. Samples were collected from both the pre- and postfilter...
متن کاملAn evaluation of mattress encasings and high efficiency particulate filters on asthma control in the tropics.
The effect of two allergen avoidance modalities, Allergy Control Covers (ACC) and High Efficiency Particulate Filters (HEPA) on asthma control in children were evaluated. This was an open study involving 24 dust mite sensitive asthmatic children. Following a 4 week run-in period, the subjects were randomly allocated to use mattresses fitted with ACC (n = 6), HEPA filters in their bedrooms (n = ...
متن کاملMold Occurring on the Air Cleaner High-Efficiency Particulate Air Filters Used in the Houses of Child Patients with Atopic Dermatitis
Fungi are the known sources of irritation associated with atopic diseases (e.g., asthma, allergic rhinoconjunctivitis, and atopic eczema). To quantitatively estimate their presence in the indoor environment of atopic dermatitis-inflicted child patient's houses (ADCPHs), the high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters installed inside the air cleaners of three different ADCPHs were investigat...
متن کاملThe impact of portable high-efficiency particulate air filters on the incidence of invasive aspergillosis in a large acute tertiary-care hospital.
BACKGROUND Worldwide, the frequency of invasive fungal infections has been increasing, with a corresponding increase in the numbers of high-risk patients. Exposure reduction through the use of high-efficiency particulate air (HEPA) filters has been the preferred primary preventive strategy for these high-risk patients. Although the efficiency and benefits of fixed HEPA filters is well proven, t...
