Exposure to dust, endotoxin and airborne microorganisms in wastewater sludge thermal drying units
The objective of this study was to assess workers' exposure to bioaerosols in sludge drying units. Simultaneous collection of inhalable dust and airborne biological agents was carried out using rotating cup samplers (CIP 10, Arelco). Sixteen stationary and 30 personal measurements were performed in three drying plants, during summer and winter. Microbial content of air was characterized by high ...

Characterization of seasonal indoor and outdoor bioaerosols in the arid environment of El Paso, Texas
The authors conducted a study in the El Paso, Texas, region to assess the seasonal bioaerosol concentrations in a convenience sample of one-story residences. The authors sampled the same houses for each season over the course of a year (March 2005 to February 2006) to determine bacterial and fungal concentrations. They used a two-stage ambient culturable sampler system to collect the bioaerosol ...
