Figures & data

Figure 1. Experimental setup.

Figure 2. Total sampling efficiency of the CI-L and CI-WWMF. The X-axis lists the particle sizes of polystyrene latex (PSL) microspheres and Bacillus atrophaeus var. globigii (BG) spores (median aerodynamic particle size of 0.8 µm) used to determine the sampling efficiency.

Figure 3. Sampling efficiency by stage of the CI-L. The X-axis provides the range of particle sizes collected by each stage. The different bar markings correspond to the size of monodisperse PSL microspheres and Bacillus atrophaeus var. globigii (BG) spores used in the sampling efficiency testing.
