Morton concluded that the particle size of an aerosol of pathogenic organisms determines the degree of infectivity by the respiratory route.

Therefore it is obvious that any instrument used to assess the health hazard or infection potential of particulate aerosols should determine the number and size of air borne particles or, preferably, classify them aerodynamically since penetration and deposition in the respiratory tract is a matter of aerodynamics.
