[Prior Art] ^ The action of pathogens and environmental allergens contained in the air is very important for the brothers who need high levels of air purity, such as in hospitals and those who have severe allergic reactions to the aforementioned allergens. By. Typically, the form of a filter in the form of a mask or air conduit can filter particulate matter during air circulation or, in the case of a mask, during inhalation and exhalation. The mask and air duct filter temporarily captures pathogens and allergens, as well as particulate matter such as dust, over the surface of the filter material. Once the filters are reached to a lower limit or after a single use, they are typically discarded or, in some cases, cleaned and reused. There are a number of design options for filtration devices, such as the following: • US Patent No. ι, 319, 763, “Air filter for wall registers” issued to Drew on October 28, 1919; • Issued on January 16, 1973 U.S. Patent No. 3,710,948 to "Selton-sustaining pocket type filter"; • US Patent No. 3,779,244 "Disposable face respirator" issued to Weeks on December 18, 1973; • issued on April 9, 1974 US Patent No. 3,802,429, "Surgical face mask"; • US Patent No. 4,197,100 "Filtering member for filters" issued to Houusher on April 8, 1980; • Issued to Matkovich on January 17, 1989 US Patent No. 4,798,676, Low pressure drop bacterial filter and method 55; • US Patent No. 5,525,136 issued to Rosen on June 11, 1996, Gasketed multi-media air cleaner”; May 5, 1996 U.S. Patent No. 5,747,053 issued to Nashimoto, 'Antiviral filter air cleaner impregnated with tea extract' U.S. Patent No. 5,906,677 ''Electrostatic supercharger scrren' issued to Dudley on May 25th. 1291366 There are many important flaws in the shovel. Disadvantages, in the above designs, the removal of 2 filters, masks or masks may cause un-immobilized pathogens or S-shells to be in close proximity to the air surrounding the user, which may be harmful to inhalation. Users: In addition, such designs may not immobilize the pathogens contained in the air and kill them in m situ. Some designs incorporate a viscous material into the filter material to capture the scallops. Some designs incorporate a complex filter arrangement into the interior of the short barrel that can be placed inside the air guide # or mask. In some cases, the glass fiber is part of the filter media, which may be harmful to the human body when placed near the TT and the mouth. In one design, it is apparent that the cotton yarn soaked with the disinfecting j is placed in the air duct for aerosolization into the room to maintain the thirst. The use of such wet disinfectants may be for people in the immediate vicinity of the disinfectant; and may not be suitable for use in a mask. Other advantages of the invention will be set forth in part in the description of the appended claims.

After culturing on the appropriate medium of each series, determine the total gas value of live bacteria, yeast and mold. Type of live bacteria cultured on soybean agar (TSA, Quelab), and yeast The mold line was cultured on HEA supplemented with gentamicin (0.005% p/v) and oxytetracycline (0.01% p/v) to limit bacterial growth. HEA, ^8 +/- 0.2 lipid pH The value allows spore germination and mycelial development. After the incubation period, the colony count is calculated using the colony meter (Accu-LifeTM, Fisher). The morphotype gap of the bacterial colonies is identified by Gramstaining. (See Table 5.) For the calculation of yeast and mold, each macroscopically differentiated mold colony was identified by microscopy using gender and/or species. Mold slides were prepared using Adhesive Tape Method 11. Techniques can maintain the integrity of the mold construction by immobilizing the mold on the adhesive side of the tape. After collection, the mold is stained with lactophenol and observed at magnifications of 〇χ and 4〇x. Search for the mold in the table 12'13'14'15. In this experiment, only the colonies that produce spores were identified.
