* A simulation model was developed to study airflow distribution when air-tight doors are opened or closed, revealing an airflow entrainment velocity of around 0.12 m/s which leads to increased vortex activity.
* The study found that opening air-tight doors doubled the particle deposition rate in the lab, with almost 80% of particles settling on surfaces, raising concerns for LAIs and suggesting improvements in air-tight door control for better biosafety.
