Technology:
Mobile and easy to use, the Coriolis Compact is suitable for indoor and outdoor sampling.
Due to an improved battery autonomy, it performs up to 8 hours of continuous sampling. The cycles of sampling are programmable.
As the sample is collected thought a dry cyclonic technology, it can be easily recover with any suitable buffer to perform analysis. The obtained sample is compatible with multiple downstream analysis such as Culture, PCR, qPCR, or NGS so it gives access to highly sensitive and specific results in only a few hours. Bertin provides single use consumable to avoid cross contamination.
1. Sterile cone is placed on the device and locked.
2. Aspirated air runs into the cone.
3. Particles contained in the air are retained in the cone wall.
4. Collected particles are recovered by adding liquid to the cone.

Virus collection & detection
One of the main challenges of virus monitoring in the air is obtaining adequately concentrated samples. With its dry sampling technology, the Coriolis Compact is a perfect instrument to detect viruses in the air. Indeed, after each collection, users can choose the volume of solution in which they wish to resuspend their sample. Additionally, solutions that can preserve the nucleic acids present in the sample can also be taken advantage of. For example, in the case of RNA viruses such as SARS-CoV-2, users have the option to immediately resuspend their sample in Trizol to protect RNA against degradation.
