Size fractionation of bioaerosol emissions from green-waste composting

Size fractionation of bioaerosol emissions from green-waste composting

Particle size is a significant factor in determining the dispersal and inhalation risk from bioaerosols. Green-waste composting is a significant source of bioaerosols (including pathogens), but little is known about the distribution of specific taxa across size fractions. To characterise size fracti...
