This provides a basis for using this particular phage strain as a viral simulant in place of SARS CoV and other airborne viruses in the tests for evaluation of bioaerosol removal and inactivation by different types of air purifiers. Fig. 4(a) shows that the plaques formed on a GSM plate were used to sample the airflow containing phage aerosol generated with a source suspension with 10 5 pfu/mL when the integrated air purifier was turned off. In addition to particle removal test, airborne bacteria were also sampled in the experimental room with the integrated air purifier. Based upon the integrated technology of high voltage electric field, ultraviolet ray, composite silver material, and activated carbon fibers, an air purifying device has been developed to prevent airborne bacteria and virus spread through central air-conditioning system. ./cache/cord-308833-ei1faruy.txt ./txt/cord-308833-ei1faruy.txt
