Abstract:

The results of numerical modelling of the angular fluorescence distribution of the individual particles of a bioaerosol are compared with experimental data obtained by a flowthrough-optical method when studying particles of the protein ovalbumin, as well as of Bacillus subtilis spores. It is shown that the experimental data agree on the whole with the results of the model computations.
