The measurement of respiratory viruses in indoor air is critical for effectively preventing the spread of diseases. This is typically accomplished by counting the nucleic acids or plaques of air-sampled viruses. Herein, we present a growth-based airborne virus surveillance (G-AVS) platform based on paper-based electrochemical immunosensors for targeting hemagglutinin (HA) and nucleoprotein (NP), and water-condensation air sampling for the quantitative measurement of airborne influenza viruses. The measurements, compared with RT-qPCR, demonstrated consistency between the two. In the measurements of airborne influenza viruses conducted in an elementary school using G-AVS, 23% (4/17) of indoor air samples were positive, with concentrations ranging from 1.7 × 104 to 1.6 × 106 gene copies/m3, while losses in the HA relative to NP were 48-75% at a relative humidity of 27.0-36.8% and 60 min air sampling, similar to infectivities reported in the literature. This platform has the potential for rapid and cost-effective airborne virus measurement.
