Bioaerosol Samplers

Guide to Sampling Particles of Biological Origin

	BioSampler The SKC BioSampler is a collection device designed for sampling airborne particulates of biological origin (e.g., bacteria, fungi, pollen, and viruses) and their fragments and by-products.
	BioStage Bioaerosol Impactor The BioStage Single-stage Bioaerosol Impactor operates on the principle of inertial impaction and meets NIOSH Methods 0800 and 0801 specifications for sampling indoor and outdoor air for viable microorganisms, including bacteria, fungi, and actinomycetes.
	Button Sampler for Inhalable Dust SKC Button Aerosol Sampler is a filter sampler with a porous curved-surface inlet designed to improve the collection characteristics of inhalable dust (< 100 µm aerodynamic diameter), including bioaerosols for total (viable plus non-viable) microbial count.
	Carpet Sampling Pump Kit The convenient Carpet Sampling Pump Kit contains all the materials needed to sample carpeting for fungal spores and particulates.
	Filters Optimized for Bioaerosol Sampling Filter sampling is an easy, efficient method for sampling bioaerosols including vegetative bacteria, fungal cells, spores, and fragments such as endotoxin.
	Microvacuum Cassettes Designed specifically for the collection and analysis of fungal spores from carpets and other dusty areas, the Carpet Cassette contains a 0.45-µm pore size polycarbonate filter preloaded into a 37-mm cassette with an attached micro-vacuum nozzle.
	VersaTrap Sampling Cassettes VersaTrap fits directly onto bioaerosol sampling pumps such as the QuickTake 30 to effectively collect mold spores, pollen, dust, fibers, asbestos, fungi, inorganic particles, and many other IAQ contaminants.
	Sterile Surface Swab Kit The easy-to-use Surface Swab Kit is ideal for determining the relative degree and type of biological contamination in an area. This non-destructive method can be safely used on most surfaces and materials.
	Stick-to-it: Lift Tape for Surface Sampling Stick-to-it is a flexible clear plastic microscope slide with an adhesive area that can be used to sample for possible biological and inorganic dust contamination on surfaces. Analysis of samples can indicate the relative degree of contamination on surfaces and the types of fungi present.
	318-V Video PRO Boroscope/Camera Visual inspection in hard-to-reach areas is easy with the 318-V Digital Boroscope/Camera. The 42-inch flexible water, oil, and solvent-resistant shaft transmits video to display on a 2.5-inch full-color high-resolution LCD. The highly sensitive camera with auto-focus views objects within > 3/8 inch.
