Abstract: One variation of a method includes, during a calibration period: triggering collection of an initial bioaerosol sample by an air sampler located in an environment; and triggering dispensation of a tracer test load by a dispenser located in the environment; accessing a detected barcode level of a barcode detected in the initial bioaerosol sample; accessing a true barcode level of the barcode contained in the tracer test load; and deriving a calibration factor for the environment based on a difference between the detected barcode level and the true barcode level. The method further includes, during a live period succeeding the calibration period: triggering collection of a first bioaerosol sample by the air sampler; accessing a detected pathogen level of a pathogen detected in the first bioaerosol sample; and interpreting a predicted pathogen level of the pathogen in the environment based on the detected pathogen level and the calibration factor.

Abstract: An air sampling system and method are provided to collect air samples from a plurality of air sample inlets. Before or after transmitting an air sample originating from one of the sample inlets, a signal gas is transmitted via the sample line in accordance with one of a plurality of predefined burp patterns, each of which uniquely corresponds to a different one of the sample inlets. The sample line is monitored for the signal gas in accordance with the predefined burp patterns. Based on detection of the signal gas in the sample line in accordance with one of the predefined burp patterns, a related action is taken. The related action can be identifying the sample inlet from which the air sample originated, or further transmitting the air sample via the sample line.

Abstract: A system (42) is disclosed for condensation particle counting in conjunction with modifying an aerosol to enhance the formation and growth of droplets of a selected working fluid, preferably water. Before saturation with the working fluid, the aerosol is exposed to an aerosol modifying component (54), preferably a vapor including molecules that are adsorbed onto surfaces of the particles or other elements suspended in the aerosol. Adsorption alters the surface character of the suspended elements towards increased affinity for the vapor of the working fluid, to promote the formation and growth of working fluid droplets. The droplets are optically detected to indicate numbers and concentrations of the suspended elements.
