Clothing systems evaluated in a dispersal chamber
Journal article, 2014

A dispersal chamber or "body-box" has been used for studying the protective efficacy of different types of clothing systems for cleanrooms and associated controlled environments, such as operating rooms. Measurements were carried out in order to relate airborne dispersal of particles and bacteriacarrying particles to the quality of fabrics and the design of clothing systems. The results show the relevance of dispersal chamber testing in the evaluation of clothing systems.
