Airborne transmission of biological agents within the indoor built environment: a multidisciplinary review (2022)
Journal Article
Argyropoulos, C. D., Skoulou, V., Efthimiou, G., & Michopoulos, A. K. (2022). Airborne transmission of biological agents within the indoor built environment: a multidisciplinary review. Air Quality, Atmosphere and Health, https://doi.org/10.1007/s11869-022-01286-w

The nature and airborne dispersion of the underestimated biological agents, monitoring, analysis and transmission among the human occupants into building environment is a major challenge of today. Those agents play a crucial role in ensuring comforta... Read More about Airborne transmission of biological agents within the indoor built environment: a multidisciplinary review.

Innate immunity mediated by Toll-like receptors (TLRs), which can recognize pathogen molecular patterns, plays a critical role in type 1 diabetes development. TLR7 is a pattern recognition receptor that senses single-stranded RNAs from viruses and ho...
