Ratio of infectious virus particles to virus genes per PCR-reaction as quantified by RT-qPCR |

---|---|---|---|---|---|---|
Exposed to charged collector | Exposed to uncharged collector | Reduction of infectivity | Aerolized virus | Aerolized virus captured | Reduction of infectivity | |
CaCV | 0.74 × 10−4 | 1.24 × 10−4 | 40.1% | 2.96 × 10−2 | <7.83 × 10−4a | >97.4%a |
RRV | n.d. | n.d. | n.d. | 4.86 × 10−1 | <7.66 × 10−3a | >98.4%a |
