The Wideband Integrated Bioaerosol Sensor instrument is made by Droplet Measurement Technologies.

Product Description The WIBS is the world’s only instrument for real-time, single particle measurement of atmospheric bacteria, molds, pollen, and other bioaerosols. WIBS measures fluorescence to infer the presence of biological material in particles and provides detailed data on size, relative measure of shape, and fluorescent properties to enable classification of pollen, bacteria, and fungi.。

Advantage Characteristics

Graphical user-interface details: Measure particles in real time and see housekeeping parameters to monitor instrument health and enhance operational uptime. Research versatility: Get more flexibility for your different research applications. Collect measurements and data on the ground or in the air. Particles-by-particles data: Get specific data for particles from 0.5 to 30 µm, as well as particle time-of-flight to detect coincidence; configurable to measure larger particles such as pollens and fungal spores.

High sensitivity: Measure trace amounts of mold and other bioaerosols in the atmosphere. Particles-by-particles data: Get specific data for particles from 0.5 to 30 µm, as well as particle time-of-flight to detect coincidence; configurable to measure larger particles such as pollens and fungal spores. Advanced data filtering: Enables selection of filter criteria for both full and partial measurements. Filter data using a wide variety of criteria: particle size, asymmetry, and concentration; fluorescent excitation and emission; or ratios of any of these parameters.
