Patent ID: 8013984

Claim:
An apparatus for the detection and the substantial identification of bioaerosols comprising: a) an air flow system to deliver an aligned stream of particles to an optical system; b) the optical system comprising a triggering subsystem and a size subsystem, wherein said triggering subsystem and said size subsystem comprise a first light emitting device aligned with a first sensitive sensor and a second light emitting device aligned with a second sensitive sensor wherein the sensor measures from the first sensitive sensor and second sensitive sensor are used to determine the velocity and the aerodynamic size of the particle by means of an electrical system for processing data and, a fluorescence subsystem comprising a third light emitting device and a fluorescent emission sensor, wherein a third light emitting device induces multiphoton fluorescent emission of said particle and wherein said fluorescent emission sensor measures the multiphoton fluorescent emission and wherein the measure of the third sensitive sensor is collected by means of said electrical system and; c) wherein said electrical system for processing data, comprises a library of a store data and means to process a measure data, wherein the measure data comprises the collected measures from the first sensitive sensor, the second sensitive sensor and third sensitive sensor and, wherein said electrical system integrates the air flow system and optical system by controlling the delivery of the aligned stream particles to the optical system and compares the store data with the measure data.
