认识到拥挤、高流量的机场和飞机与呼吸道疾病传播有关，我们与罗利达勒姆国际机场(RDU)的管理人员合作，在RDU进行了一项关于呼吸道病毒气溶胶监测的试点研究。从2018年1月至3月，我们使用NIOSH两级采样器在RDU拥挤的区域采集了150分钟的气溶胶样本。在24份样本中，有4份(17%)对已知的呼吸道病原体呈阳性，包括D型流感病毒和腺病毒。这些结果表明，在机场等公共交通领域采用生物气溶胶监测技术作为检测和表征新型呼吸道病毒的非侵入性方法是可行的。
Recognizing that crowded, high-traffic airports and airplanes have been implicated in respiratory disease transmission, we partnered with administrators of Raleigh Durham International Airport (RDU) in conducting a pilot study of aerosol surveillance for respiratory viruses at RDU. From January to March 2018 we used NIOSH 2-stage samplers to collect 150 min aerosol samples in crowded areas at RDU. Four (17%) of the 24 samples were positive for known respiratory pathogens including influenza D virus and adenovirus. These results suggest the feasibility of employing bioaerosol surveillance techniques in public transportation areas, such as airports, as a noninvasive way to detect and characterize novel respiratory viruses.
