effect of relative humidity and temperature on the survival of bovine rotavirus in aerosol

The effect of relative humidity and temperature on the survival of bovine rotavirus in airborne particles was investigated. Bovine rotavirus was found to be stable at low and high relative humidity; infectivity was lost more rapidly at high temperature than at lower temperature.
