Best Monitoring Instrumentation Product: Active-Count100H Microbiological Sampler
Lighthouse Worldwide Solutions offers its Active-Count 100H Microbiological Sampler, which has both a HEPA filtered exhaust and a removable / autoclavable petri dish holder to solve cross-contamination issues.

The patent pending removable / autoclavable petri dish holder allows for easier and more effective cleaning of the internal sampling area. The system is ISO 14698 compliant with a d50 collection efficiency of 1 micron and exhaust ports designed to avoid re-aspiration of sampled air.
