Comparison between air samplers can only be done by aerosol experts under specific aerosol controlled conditions, to avoid any partial judgment coming from airsamplers manufacturers. Thanks to data published by independant scientists not financed by airsamplers manufacturers, released in scientific journals and reports, this is now made possible between Sass 3100 and Coriolis µ, airsamplers.
Sass 3100 best in collecting endotoxins
…. the Coriolis μ.… underestimated the levels of detectable endotoxins …. elution of the SASS® 3100 filters with PBS
allowed efficient recovery of endotoxins…. We found that PBS elution
allowed the recovery of 98.0 ± 5.3% of endotoxins inoculated on filters…
Face-to-face comparison of the BioSampler and the SASS® 3100 in contaminated environments revealed that the SASS® 3100 yielded superior recovery of endotoxins per sampled air volume using PBS….

Sass 3100 best air sampler compared to Coriolis µ for biodiversity collection in aerosols.
…samples collected by the electrostatic dry sampler SASS 3100 showed a greater estimation and diversity of species richness than ….Coriolis. The lowest values were obtained by the Coriolis sampler….,
It is clear that the SASS 3100 produces indices of diversity-α far superior to those of Coriolis μ. … the SASS 3100 should be the recommended sampler for air biodiversity studies since it produces samples with a greater taxonomic richness. “
