Abstract
The present disclosure provides systems and methods for determining the transmissibility of a pathogen. The system described herein includes a flow device with a plurality of cell culture chambers. Cells, such as primary human tracheal or bronchial epithelial cells, are cultured within the flow device. Cells within a first cell culture chamber are infected with the pathogen. The pathogen's transmissibility is determined by flowing a gas through the flow device such that the gas flows over the infected cells and then over uninfected cells in a second cell culture chamber of the device. By quantifying the amount of virus present in the cells of the second cell culture chamber after a predetermined amount of time, the transmissibility of the pathogen is determined.
