Reagentless Detection and Classification of Individual Bioaerosol Particles in Seconds

Abstract: The rapid chemical analysis of individual cells is an analytical capability that will profoundly impact many fields including bioaerosol detection for biodefense and cellular diagnostics for clinical medicine. This article describes a mass spectrometry-based analytical technique for the real-time and reagentless characterization of individual airborne cells without sample preparation. We characterize the mass spectral signature of individual Bacillus spores and demonstrate the ability to distinguish two Bacill… Show more

“…The BAMS mass spectra of Bacillus spores contain primarily analytes from the spore's core including DPA, arginine and glutamic acid [10,12,13]. These conclusions were reached after growing the organism in 13 C and 15 N enriched media.…”

“…The current approach involves bio-aerosol mass spectrometry (BAMS), which is a method for real-time analysis of bio-aerosols [10]. Unlike traditional chemical and biochemical methods for bacteria identification, which have relatively long analysis times ranging from hours to days [11], bio-aerosol mass spectrometry requires only seconds [10,11].…”
