Catch the latest work by our USA team on #dust and #QAC concentration during #COVID19. #360dustanalysis #mapmyenv #globalhealth
Check out our paper in @EnvSciTech Letters with @GuomaoZheng and @GabeFilippelli on environmental implications of #COVID19. Our results show the levels of #QAC disinfectants used in cleaning products have doubled in homes since the start of the pandemic. pubs.acs.org/doi/10.1021/acs…

Our UK lab may be closed due to COVID-19, but that has not stopped them from expanding the #MapMyEnv database. #Greece is now live! 20 dust samples from #Athens and #Thessaloniki can be viewed at mapmyenvironment.com with more to come... #citizenscience @DustSafeStudy

Our global map is growing (mapmyenvironment.com). Our Aussie team @ @Macquarie_Uni are still testing #VegeSafe soil and @DustSafeStudy dust. Our other hubs are currently closed, however you can send your sample to be analysed when they're back in action!

Calling all #scientists! Do you have research lab #PPE (eg #faceshield/#N95/#surgicalmask/#gloves) going UNUSED? Have you checked with your institution or contacted a local emergency management authority about donating #PPE to help clinical colleagues? #HeroesNeedMasks #COVID19

As we all begin to self-isolate, why not make the most of this time to do a bit of spring cleaning and send us a vacuum sample? 🧹 We continue to accept samples worldwide. Stay safe everyone! #StaySafeStayHome #coronavirus #citizenscience #DustSafe #MapMyEnv

Welcome onboard, New Zealand! Global mapping is underway!! 🌏What will your dust reveal? #DustSafe #citizenscience
Kia ora, #NewZealand! Welcome to MME. Researchers at @AucklandUni and @gnsscience have been busy preparing #DustSafe samples. They're also working on some top-secret #VegeSafe plans, so watch this space... @DustSafeStudy #citizenscience #MapMyEnv #Auckland

SOAP SOAP SOAP: Great details on soap 🧼 virus: β€œsoap dissolves the fat membrane and the virus falls apart like a house of cards and "dies", or rather, we should say it becomes inactive as viruses aren’t really alive.” #washyourhands #COVID19
1/25 Part 1 - Why does soap work so well on the SARS-CoV-2, the coronavirus and indeed most viruses? Because it is a self-assembled nanoparticle in which the weakest link is the lipid (fatty) bilayer. A two part thread about soap, viruses and supramolecular chemistry #COVID19
