BioStage Impactor Standard Single-stage Bioaerosol Impactor

The SKC BioStage viable cascade impactor meets NIOSH requirements and ACGIH recommendations for sampling indoor and outdoor mold and bacteria. The BioStage comprises an inlet cone, precision-drilled 400-hole impactor stage, and a base that holds a standard-size agar plate. A high flow pump, such as the QuickTake® 30, pulls microorganisms in air through the holes (jets) where they are collected on the agar surface. Testing demonstrates that BioStage provides performance equivalent to the industry-standard Andersen N-6. What sets BioStage apart from other samplers is its SureLock positive seal (instead of bulky spring clamps) that ensures sample integrity.
