Comparison of bacterial recovery by Reuter centrifugal air sampler and slit-to-agar sampler.
Bacterial recovery by a portable Reuter centrifugal air sampler and a standard Mattson-Garvin slit-to-agar air sampler was compared in a series of experiments. Microbial air quality was monitored in seven typical laboratory locations. Tests showed that the Reuter centrifugal air sampler yielded significantly higher recoveries than did the slit-to-agar unit.
