Title:
SYSTEM AND METHOD FOR DETERMINING AN AMOUNT OF FUNGAL PARTICLES IN AIR
Document Type and Number:
WIPO Patent Application WO/2018/108946
Kind Code:
A3
Abstract:
Disclosed is a system for determining an amount of fungal particles in air in a building, comprising: an air inlet connected to a filter for filtering particles having a size of 1-120 μm;means for collecting fungal particles from the filtered particles and transferring the collected fungal particles to at least one sample cuvette; means for dry denaturation of the fungal particles;means for producing a voltage change of the dry denaturised fungal particles and means for detection of voltage changes caused by the dry denaturised fungal particles to obtain voltage change data; means for collecting a sample; means for wet denaturation of the fungal particles subsequent to the detection of voltage changes. The system further comprises at least two of means for immunological detection of the fungal species in the sample to obtain immunological data; means for measuring glucose concentration of the sample to obtain glucose concentration data;means for measuring light emission of the sample to obtain light emission data.
