Article Synopsis
- - Bioaerosols generated in the respiratory system are significant for spreading infectious diseases like common cold, influenza, and COVID-19, highlighting the need to study their production mechanisms.
- - A computational study investigates bioaerosol production resulting from air interacting with a mucus layer in the respiratory tract, revealing that specific fluid dynamics cause instability that can lead to bioaerosol formation.
- - The research finds that bioaerosols can form even during normal breathing, depending on mucus properties, and that these aerosols are larger and less numerous than those produced during coughing, suggesting implications for treatment strategies.
