Detection of bioaerosols, or primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs), has become
increasingly important for a wide variety of research communities and scientific questions. In …

The purpose of this tutorial is to teach the method of digital in-line holography (DIH) as a
means to characterize aerosol particles in an in-situ manner. The scope is limited to the …

Tigecycline (TGC) is recognised as last resort of drugs against several antibiotic-resistant
bacteria. Bacterial resistance to tigecycline due to presence of plasmid-mediated mobile …

Background Raman spectroscopy is a powerful technique for the robust, reliable and rapid
detection and discrimination of bacteria. Objectives To develop a rapid and sensitive …

This paper offers a brief review on the detection and characterization of biological and other
organic-carbon (OC) aerosol particles in atmosphere using laser-induced-fluorescence (LIF) …

We describe a prototype low-cost multi-channel aerosol fluorescence sensor designed for
unattended deployment in medium to large area bio-aerosol detection networks. Individual …

The detection and identification of dilute bacterial samples by surface-enhanced Raman
spectroscopy has been explored by mixing aqueous suspensions of bacteria with a …

Improved real‐time methods for characterizing airborne biological particles are needed.
Here we review our efforts in develo** techniques for measuring the laser‐induced …

Elastic light scattering (ELS) from single micron-sized particles has been used as a fast, non-
destructive diagnostic tool in life science, physics, chemistry, climatology, and astrophysics …

Laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy (LIBS) is a promising technique for real-time
chemical and biological warfare agent detection in the field. We have demonstrated the …
