Technical Report ·
DOI:https://doi.org/10.2172/787887· OSTI ID:787887

This report describes progress made on the design and development of a miniature bioaerosol concentrator intended to concentrate the respirable fraction of a small bioaerosol sample directly into a microliter liquid volume contained in open micro-channels within the device. The chosen design concept is described, technical issues related to its development are discussed, and research and development progress through FY2000 is reported. This work was funded under Sandia’s Laboratory Directed Research and Development (LDRD) program as Project 10371. This report has been prepared in fulfillment of Department of Energy reporting requirements for the LDRD program.
