Dear Customer,

This year, on the occasion of our 100th anniversary, we will be positioning ourselves for the future as part of the DIN Group with a new name. 

And so as of April 22, 2024

Beuth Verlag will become DIN Media. 

You can find out more about our new name and the reasons behind it here.

Yours sincerely,
Beuth Verlag

Short description
Biological particles (pollen and fungal spores) are present in the air, causing health impacts at various levels. This Technical Specification specifies the procedure to sample continuously and to analyse the concentration of airborne pollen grains and fungal spores in ambient air using the volumetric Hirst type sampler. The document describes both the sampling and the analysis procedures for the purpose of allergy networks. Information and requirements on the handling of the sampling system are given. Analysis is based on optical microscopy for identification and counting pollen grains and fungal spores.
Overview

Airborne biological particles (pollen and fungal spores) occur and cause health effects of varying degrees. This standard specifies the procedure for continuous sampling and analysis of the concentration of airborne pollen grains and fungal spores in outdoor air using a volumetric collector based on the Hirst principle. The document describes both sampling and analytical procedures for use in allergy networks. Information is provided and specifications are given for handling the sampling system. The analysis is based on light microscopy for the identification and numerical detection of pollen and fungal spores.
