Abstract
Based on three years measurements, the dependence of the concentrations of cultivated microorganisms and total protein on meteorological parameters (wind direction and speed, solar radiation, temperature, atmospheric pressure, relative and absolute humidity) is studied. Sampling was carried out at the site of the FBRI State Scientific Center for Virology and Biotechnology “Vector” of Rospotrebnadzor, Koltsovo, Novosibirsk region, with simultaneous recording of weather conditions. The concentration of total protein was determined by the fluorescence method of the protein binding reagent, and the concentration of cultivated microorganisms by standard cultural methods. Weather data came from a weather station located near the sampling site. Analysis of the data obtained shows that the concentrations of biological components in aerosol increase with the average temperature, absolute humidity, and illumination during sampling and decrease with an increase in the average relative humidity, wind speed, and atmospheric pressure.
