Air Quality Monitoring  

Ensure Safer Environments: Advanced Solutions for Monitoring Air Quality and Infection Control in Indoor and Outdoor Environments 

Air quality directly impacts human health, making monitoring airborne pollutants and pathogens a top priority. Our air quality monitoring solutions offer high-efficiency concentration and detection of airborne particles, pollutants, and bioaerosols in any setting—from urban areas to healthcare facilities. Whether for urban environments, industrial sites, or healthcare facilities, our technology provides the data needed to assess air quality and implement effective control measures. By enabling rapid monitoring of air quality and potential healthcare-associated infections (HAIs), our solutions empower you to implement effective control measures, safeguarding both patients and the broader community.

Scientific Information

Environmental health research depends on reproducible methods for collecting airborne particulate matter that support multiple downstream analytical workflows. Researchers at Duke University evaluated an outdoor air sampling workflow designed to recover representative airborne material into a liquid sample suitable for both biological assays and molecular biology applications.

Scientific Information
An AirPrep™ sampler was used to collect samples from various areas of a hospital, including patient rooms in a COVID-19 ward during the pandemic and detecting a vast number of bacterial species. “This efficient sampling method improves understanding of hospital air quality, potential transmission routes, and infection control measures. Ultimately, it contributes to enhanced safety for both patients and staff in healthcare settings.”
