Impact of the Contamination Method on the Disinfection of N95 Respirators: Drops versus Aerosols
Abstract The recent surge in the use of filtering facepiece respirators (FFRs) during the SARS-CoV-2 pandemic triggered economic and environmental concerns with regards to their safe reuse and/or disposal. Their decontamination through ultraviolet (UV) irradiation has proven efficient in bench tests...
