MicroorganismsMicroorganisms
• Obligate parasites (must have a living host)– viruses– bacteria– rickettsia
• Facultative saprophytes (will utilize dead organic material)– fungi– bacteria

Infectious DiseaseInfectious Disease
• Pathogenicity• Virulence• Relationship between virulence (V), numbers
of pathogens or dosage (D), and resistant state of the host (RS)
• Colonization• Invasiveness
Infectious Disease =V * D

Infectious DiseaseInfectious DiseaseTerminologyTerminology
• Portal of entry• Exposure vs. infection• Clinical vs. subclinical or asymptomatic
infection• Carrier state• Opportunistic infection• Human pathogen vs. virulence• Immunosuppression

Why Not Scientifically Why Not Scientifically Supportable?Supportable?
• Not a single entity
• Human responses cover wide range
• No single sampling method exists
• No exposure/response relationships exist
Total Culturable or Countable Bioaerosols
![Page 21: Biologically Derived Airborne Contaminants: Bioaerosols and TLVs ® Kenneth F. Martinez, MSEE, CIH Chair, ACGIH ® Bioaerosols Committee NIOSH.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e5d5503460f94b55b9d/html5/thumbnails/21.jpg)
Why Not Scientifically Why Not Scientifically Supportable?Supportable?
• Data are derived from indicators rather than actual effector agents
• Concentrations vary widely
• Low statistical power in cause-effect relationship studies
Specific Culturable or Countable Bioaerosols- other than infectious
![Page 22: Biologically Derived Airborne Contaminants: Bioaerosols and TLVs ® Kenneth F. Martinez, MSEE, CIH Chair, ACGIH ® Bioaerosols Committee NIOSH.](https://reader036.fdocuments.in/reader036/viewer/2022062516/56649e5d5503460f94b55b9d/html5/thumbnails/22.jpg)
Why Not Scientifically Why Not Scientifically Supportable?Supportable?
• Dose-response data limited to a few agents• Air sampling limited to research• Administrative and engineering controls
remain the primary defenses
Infectious Culturable or Countable Bioaerosols

Why Not Scientifically Why Not Scientifically Supportable?Supportable?
• Some dose-response relationship data available– Experimental studies– Epidemiologic surveys
• Assay methods improving
• May be appropriate in the future
