Air Testing Solutions

Tape lift samples are collected using 10 cm tape, folded at edges for avoiding any contamination. The tape is pressed once on the tested surface.
The samples will be submitted in sealed plastic bags
All samples should be clearly identified/ numbered

All analyses are performed using transmitted polarized light microscopy (size of analyzed particles > 1 um).
Microscopic identification of particles present in dust deposited on various surfaces
Dust particle counting on air filters by digital imaging
Identification of mineral grains and rock fragments, biological materials, natural and processed fibers, soot, carbonized materials, etc
