Investigation of a DNA Tagged Aerosol Tracer Method for In Situ Evaluation of Germicidal UV Air Cleaner Effectiveness
Transmission of respiratory pathogens occurs primarily in indoor settings, interventions to reduce the risk of their transmission include increases in outdoor air introduction, filtration, and ultraviolet germicidal irradiation (UVGI). However, validating these interventions is challenging, particularly in actual applications. This study introduces an aerosol tracer system utilizing DNA as tracer molecule, aimed at quantitative characterization of the performance of indoor air cleaning systems.

Policy and Regulatory Roadmap to Achieve Health-Based Indoor Air Quality Standards
This paper outlines a practical, feasible, flexible, and actionable policy and regulatory roadmap to achieve health-based indoor air quality (IAQ) standards. We propose a high-level critical path anchored on a primary goal and driven by key stakeholders that offers the greatest potential for raising the IAQ floor across the built environment.
