Tracing ΦX174 bacteriophage spreading during aerosol‑generating procedures in a dental clinic

Objective The aim of this study was to test the plausibility of using the ΦX174 bacteriophage as a tracer of viral aerosols spreading in a dental aerosol-generating procedure (AGP) model. Methods ΦX174 bacteriophage (~ 108 plaque-forming units (PFU)/mL) was added into instrument irrigation reservoir...
