Most infection control focuses on surface contamination and hand hygiene. But airborne transmission — bioaerosols — drives spread of respiratory viruses, Legionella, mold, and agricultural pathogens. AirSentinel's optional bioaerosol sampling cartridge brings continuous-monitoring bioaerosol detection into hospitals, cleanrooms, schools, and food facilities for the first time at an accessible price point.

Target Pathogens and Particles

  • Respiratory virus aerosols — SARS-CoV-2, influenza, RSV in clinical settings
  • Legionella pneumophila — cooling towers, hospital HVAC systems
  • Aspergillus and environmental mold — immunocompromised patient risk
  • Bacillus spores — food processing and hospital pharmacy contamination risk
  • Agricultural bioaerosols — grain dust endotoxin, animal-housing ammonia
  • Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) as respiratory inflammation driver
  • HEPA filter bypass detection — particle count spike downstream of filter

Research Roadmap

  • Phase 1: AirSentinel standard (particle, CO₂, temp, humidity, VOC)
  • Phase 2: AirSentinel BioPlus — bioaerosol cassette for clinical settings
  • Phase 3: Real-time PCR integration for pathogen-specific detection
  • Phase 4: Metagenomics air sampling for novel pathogen surveillance
  • MDN manufacturing of cassette housing and sample collection module
  • Partnership with reference lab network for sample analysis
