Abstract
A device is described for collecting samples of microorganisms in the air, such as bacteria, fungi, viruses, including SARS-CoV-2; intuitive to use, portable, and does not require specific technical knowledge to handle. The device works through an air flow sucked in by a centrifugal fan, where a filter retains the microorganisms for later use in diagnostic laboratories.
