New insight on bioaerosol exposure in Waste Sorting Plants: Exposure levels, size distribution, and biodiversity of airborne microorganisms EL2015-013/C2016-054 | 2016

Bioaerosol emitted by working activities in Waste Sorting Plants (WSP) were associated with several health disorders such as rhinitis, asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. The aim of the study was to investigate the exposure to airborne…
Controlled Bioaerosols Aerosolization of Bacteria, Endotoxins, Actinomycetes or Fungi by a Bubbling Generator NOETUDE/C2016-028 | 2016

Physical and biological performances of a “Liquid Sparging Aerosolizer”-type bubbling generator were studied. The generator’s flexibility makes it possible to use generated bioaerosols in laboratory trials with various objectives and constraints…
Bioaerosol diversity in waste sorting plant : feasibility and uncertainly measurement EL2015-013/C2016-067 | 2016

Waste sorting activities are source of occupational bioaerosol exposure that was associated with several health disorders such as rhinitis, asthma and hypersensitivity pneumonitis. So far, the microbial biodiversity data published in this…
Characterisation of bioaerosols and evaluation of biological risks at the workplace : recent advances and perspectives EL2015-013/C2016-047 | 2016

Microorganisms are microscopic living organisms that are ubiquitous in the environment. These microbial entities, their components and metabolites can get airborne at occupational settings from process they are involved in or during handling…
Performances of the CIP 10-M personal sampler: new laboratory and field investigations EL2013-002/C2016-043 | 2016

The CIP 10-M personal sampler is used to assess worker exposure to airborne particles by collecting them in a rotating metal cup containing a few milliliters of a collection fluid. Although used by many teams in the world, the particle-collection…
The effects of pre-treatment of samples on results from (1,3)--D-glucans analysis EL2013-025/C2014-109 | 2014

(1,3)--D-glucans are polysaccharides from biological origin that may become airborne particles during normal working operations with contaminated materials. Exposure to airborne (1,3)--D-glucans are assumed to induce work related respiratory…
Controlled Bioaerosols Aerosolization of Bacteria, Endotoxins, Actinomycetes or Fungi by a Bubbling Generator EL2013-002/C2016-024 | 2016

Physical and biological performances of a “Liquid Sparging Aerosolizer”-type bubbling generator were studied. The generator’s flexibility makes it possible to use generated bioaerosols in laboratory trials with various objectives and constraints…
Compatibilitty of the cyclone BC-112 with the measurement of endotoxins in bioaerosols : A study in laboratory conditions. EL2013-025/C2014-110 | 2014

The BC-112 cyclone is an individual bioaerosol sampler constituted of a metallic main body (2 mm inlet), a first collection stage (1.5 ml collection tube) and a final collection stage (37 mm three pieces cassette). The sampler has been used for sampling…
Measurement of the collection efficiency of the CIP 10-M sampler: influence of the presence of aqueous or viscous liquids in the rotating cup EL2013-002/C2014-069 | 2014

Noting that a new version of the cup was now commercialised and the assumption that the use of viscous liquids, not evaporating, could increase the sampling duration and modify the physical performances, the objective of this work was to characterize…
Endotoxin deposits on the inner surfaces of closed-face cassettes during bioaerosol sampling: a field investigation at composting facilities NOETUDE/C2014-008 | 2014

Sampling on filters is the most widely used method in the literature for airborne endotoxins measurements (Duquenne et al., 2013). The protocols used involve the analysis of endotoxins collected only on the filters following elution. However, several…
