Detection of bioaerosols, or primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs), has become increasingly important for a wide variety research communities and scientific questions. In particular, real-time (RT) techniques autonomous, online detection characterization PBAP properties in both outdoor indoor environments are becoming more commonplace have opened avenues research. With advances technology, however, come challenges to standardize practices so that results reliable comparable across...
Abstract. Atmospheric particles of biological origin, also referred to as bioaerosols or primary aerosol (PBAP), are important various human health and environmental systems. There has been a recent steep increase in the frequency published studies utilizing commercial instrumentation based on ultraviolet laser/light-induced fluorescence (UV-LIF), such WIBS (wideband integrated bioaerosol sensor) UV-APS (ultraviolet aerodynamic particle sizer), for detection both outdoors built environment....
BACKGROUND: Controversy surrounds the fate of cyst remnants after endoscopic colloid resection. OBJECTIVE: Our study evaluated recurrence rates in patients with total resection cysts vs those coagulated remnants. METHODS: Sixty-five consecutive and 67 procedures for from 1995 to 2011 were reviewed. Degree was based on intraoperative assessment postoperative magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Recurrence compared between complete RESULTS: Data analysis performed 56 58 procedures, no follow-up 9...
Abstract. Primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs) in the atmosphere are highly relevant for Earth system, climate, and public health. The analysis of PBAPs, however, remains challenging due to their high diversity large spatiotemporal variability. For real-time PBAP analysis, light-induced fluorescence (LIF) instruments have been developed widely used laboratory ambient studies. interpretation data from these instruments, is often limited by a lack spectroscopic information. This study...
Abstract. Hierarchical agglomerative clustering (HAC) analysis has been successfully applied to several sets of ambient data (e.g., Crawford et al., 2015; Robinson 2013) and with respect standardized particles in the laboratory environment (Ruske 2017, 2018). Here we show for first time a systematic application HAC comprehensive set collected many individual particle types using wideband integrated bioaerosol sensor (WIBS-4A) (Savage 2017). The impact ratio concentrations on results was...
Abstract. Fluorescent dyed polystyrene latex spheres (PSLs) are commonly used for characterization and calibration of instruments detecting fluorescence signals from particles suspended in the air other fluids. Instruments like Ultraviolet Aerodynamic Particle Sizer (UV-APS) Waveband Integrated Bioaerosol Sensor (WIBS) widely bioaerosol research, but these present significant technical physical challenges requiring careful with standard particles. Many research communities use flow cytometry...

Removal of colloid cysts the third ventricle using a purely endoscopic method has been established as safe and advantageous technique. It is hypothesized that removal in recurrent cases might pose more technical challenges result less success. The objective this study was to assess feasibility outcomes approach for management compared primary cysts.
The rarity of colloid cysts in children makes it difficult to characterize this entity and offer meaningful advice on treatment. Infrequent case reports exist, but date there has been no age-specific assessment. purpose study was define any differences between adults who are evaluated treated for the third ventricle.
Abstract. Primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs) may impact human health and aerosol-climate interactions. The role of PBAPs in the earth system is associated with large uncertainties, related to source estimates atmospheric transport. We used a chemistry-climate model simulate atmosphere including bacteria, fungal spores pollen. Three spore emission parameterizations have been evaluated against an updated set counts synthesized from observations reported literature. comparison...
Abstract. Primary biological aerosol particles (PBAPs) may impact human health and aerosol-cloud-climate interactions. The role of PBAPs in the earth system is associated with large uncertainties, for example source estimates atmospheric lifetime.

Abstract Objectives/Scope An individual's connection to their environment is evident in Southeastern Louisiana, as this area represents a major economic hub for the United States port, petroleum, and fishing industries. The location also exposes population both natural technological disasters that impact life on many levels, with residents' behavioral health being particularly vulnerable. Areas situated along Gulf Coast are repeatedly experiencing recovering from efforts improve preparedness...
