Harmful bacteria scattered in the atmosphere are the causes of various diseases, and it is considered that collection of atmospheric air in the environment quickly and conveniently and gene detection is useful for health maintenance and sanitation preservation. Therefore, we developed a battery-driven portable device that can capture samples by atmospheric suction and interact with biosensors for rapid detection.
