Outdoor Sampling Paper Data Set
Description
This data set presents surface sampling data and weather information for Bacillus atrophaeus spores, a surrogate for B. anthracis, from a 210-day outdoor study that evaluated the detection and recovery of spores using five different sampling methods: sponge sticks, 37 mm vacuum filter cassettes, residential wet vacuums, robotic floor cleaners, and grab samples of soil, leaves, and grass.
This dataset is associated with the following publication:
Mikelonis, A., A. Abdel-Hady, D. Aslett, K. Ratliff, A. Touati, J. Archer, S. Serre, L. Mickelsen, S. Taft, and W. Calfee. Comparison of surface sampling methods for an extended duration outdoor biological contamination study. ENVIRONMENTAL MONITORING AND ASSESSMENT. Springer, New York, NY, USA, 192(455): 13, (2020).
