A method for estimating and utilizing ultrafine particle concentration includes: receiving data indicative of a measured ultrafine particle concentration and a measured nitrogen oxide concentration correlated to each location of a plurality of locations and a corresponding time of a plurality of times; establishing a correlation between ultrafine particle concentration and nitrogen oxide concentration from the measured ultrafine particle concentrations and the measured nitrogen oxide concentrations; estimating, from a nitrogen oxide concentration measured at a location where the ultrafine particle concentration is to be estimated, the ultrafine particle concentration according to the correlation; and comparing the estimated ultrafine particle concentration with at least one ultrafine particle concentration threshold to determine whether the estimated ultrafine particle concentration is higher or lower than the at least one ultrafine particle concentration threshold.

A System and Method for Enumerating Microorganisms
20260056108 · 2026-02-26 ·

This document describes a system and method for enumerating a concentration of microorganism in a liquid sample. The disclosed system has a filtration medium that has an inlet for receiving the liquid sample and an outlet for removing a filtered liquid sample from the filtration medium. A differential pressure sensor having a first port connected to the inlet of the filtration medium and a second port connected to the outlet of the filtration medium is also provided in this system and the differential pressure sensor is configured to measure a pressure difference between the inlet and outlet of the filtration medium over a period. The system also has a computing module that is communicatively connected to the differential pressure sensor whereby the computing module is configured to enumerate the concentration of the microorganism in the liquid sample based on the measured pressure difference over the period and a pre-generated calibration model.
