Research progress on distribution and exposure risk of microbial aerosols in animal houses

Abstract

Environmental aerosols in animal houses are closely related to the productive performance and health level of animals living in the houses. Preferable housing environments can improve animal welfare and production efficiency, so it is necessary to monitor and study these environments. In recent years, there have been many large-scale outbreaks of respiratory diseases related to biological aerosols, especially the novel coronavirus that has been sweeping the world. This has attracted much attention to the mode of aerosol transmission. With the rapid development of large-scale and intensive breeding, microbial aerosols have gradually become the main factor of environmental pollution in animal houses. They not only lead to a large-scale outbreak of infectious diseases, but they also have a certain impact on the health of animals and employees in the houses and increase the difficulty of prevention and control of animal-borne diseases. This paper reviews the distribution, harm, and control measures of microbial aerosols in animal house environments in order to improve people's understanding of them.

Formation Mechanisms and Emission Characteristics of Aerosol in CO2 Capture by Chemical Absorption Based on Ethanolamine Solution

“…Aerosols not only damage ecosystems, affect climate change, and cause environmental pollution, but also enter the human body and threaten our health. − Much research has been done in this field in order to avoid harm from aerosols to human beings and the environment. At a certain temperature, the vapor is in a state of supersaturation when the pressure of the vapor exceeds its saturation vapor pressure at that temperature; Khakharia et al predicted aerosol emissions after a chemical absorption system using the Aspen Plus model and found that supersaturation was an important factor for predicting aerosol emissions .…”

miR–122–5p Promotes Cowshed Particulate Matter2.5-Induced Apoptosis in NR8383 by Targeting COL4A1

“…This pollutant is not only found in industrial and urban areas but also where animal husbandry is conducted. The breeding industry is very important all over the world, and the harm caused by cowsheds and breeding houses in environmental pollution has an impact on the whole world [ 5 , 6 ]. In recent years, the rise of intensive farms in China has prompted widespread concern over the presence of PM 2.5 in these vicinities.…”
