Endoscopic Procedures in ENT and Aerosolization during Covid-19 Pandemic: An Approach towards Concepts and Guidelines
The purpose of this study is to address various endoscopic principles and guidelines as well as the risk of aerosolization. During normal ENT examinations and endoscopic procedures, otolaryngologists are more prone to inhale aerosols. Routine operations, such as ENT endoscopy, are regarded as the most aerosol-generating procedures, and should...

LED-DOAS Instrument for Monitoring Aerosol Optical Properties in the Planetary Boundary Layer
Via the reflection of incoming solar radiation and the creation of cloud droplets that act as cloud condensation nuclei, aerosols play a critical role in the Earth’s radiation budget. Aerosol optical properties in the troposphere, especially their behaviour near the ground level, are still poorly understood, making precise evaluation...
