This Small Business Innovation Research (SBIR) Phase I project is to investigate a novel technology concept, time-resolved, integrated laser-induced fluorescence, for the detection of airborne microbes. Some present detectors function poorly in the presence of diesel fumes or other pollutants, limiting their utility in urban areas. This novel detection device will not be susceptible to pollutant interference and would be simpler and less expensive than present detectors. Proof of concept requires measurement of fluorescence parameters for urban pollutants that are presently unknown so that the chosen parameters for biological aerosols can be shown to be distinctive. The commercial applications of this project include detection of pathogens in homes, hotels, offices, and in the food distribution system.

这个小企业创新研究（SBIR）第一阶段项目是研究一种新的技术概念，时间分辨，集成激光诱导荧光，用于检测空气中的微生物。 一些现有的检测器在存在柴油烟雾或其他污染物的情况下功能很差，限制了它们在城市地区的实用性。 这种新的检测装置不会受到污染物的干扰，并且比现有的检测器更简单、更便宜。 概念验证需要测量目前未知的城市污染物的荧光参数，以便生物气溶胶的选定参数可以被证明是独特的。该项目的商业应用包括检测家庭、酒店、办公室和食品配送系统中的病原体。
