1. NIOSH BIOAEROSOL CYCLONE

Developed by the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health (NIOSH) and manufactured by Tisch Environmental, the TE-BC251 is a wearable multi-stage bio-aerosol collector used for the collection of airborne viruses including INFLUENZA and COVID-19. This high quality, low cost cyclone is well suited for quick deployment to respond to the current rapidly evolving climate. The multi stage cyclone is designed to trap bio-aerosols in one of three compartments for accurate retrieval of samples at multiple cut points.

2. AMBIENT VIABLE ANDERSEN CASCADE IMPACTORS

Tisch Environmental ambient viable andersen cascade impactors are used for the collection of airborne aerosols containing bacteria or fungi. These devices come in six stage (TE-10-800), two stage (TE-10-860), or single stage (TE-10-890) variations with an available pump for sampling at 28.3lpm. These ambient viable impactors are precision-machined out of high-quality aluminum plates with successively smaller diameter holes. As the ambient air cascades through the different stages, the corresponding particulates impact on the stage as the smaller particulates continue to travel through the stages until they are entrapped on the corresponding plate. These viable bacterial particulates are then incubated and then counted or identified. They can then be recorded and related to where they may be deposited on the human lung.
