Abstract
A virus detection device includes a diffusion unit configured to diffuse a virus in a gas as an inspection target into an aqueous solution containing a fluorescent antibody specifically adsorptive to the virus by bringing the gas into contact with the aqueous solution and configured to adsorb the fluorescent antibody to the virus in the gas; an atomization unit configured to atomize the aqueous solution and generate a mist group of the aqueous solution in which the gas is diffused; a fluorescence measuring unit configured to measure a fluorescence intensity of the mist group; and an air current generator configured to form an air current flowing toward the fluorescence measuring unit from the atomization unit.
