Mass Spectrometry and Portable Microbe Detector
Human Beings are helped or hampered by many types of Microbes. From the Sub-Microbe virus to animal like Bacterium and plant like Fungi.
An Affordable Portable Electronic Microbe Detector using Mass Spectrometry; may be very useful for Small HealthCare Centers and Homes. If a Person Breathes into an adapter in the instrument, it should show a simple analysis of the Air Microbe Levels. It can also be used for CleanRoom Air Purity Indication.This is just an idea for an urgent need, this may prevent spread of flu to escalate into an epidemic; due to early detection of microbe, at the root, in every home.
Here are some Mass Spectrometry Resources that students can study and attempt to research to Develop a cost-effective consumer flu-detection device.
