SAMPLING DEVICE

摘要

Particle collecting unit for the detection of particles in the particle level of substance without evaporating the collected particles is disclosed. The particle collecting unit, which is preferably disposable, comprises a body, a duct extending through the body and connecting between a rear opening of the body and an air intake orifice of the body, and an aperture or slit in a mid portion of the body adapted for receiving a removable sampling member into a position within the duct, wherein the particles collecting unit is configured to be removably coupled to a vacuum generator with said rear opening of the body coupled to an air intake opening of the vacuum generator. A sampling probe for use with the particle collecting unit is also disclosed. The invention further refers to a system based on the particle collecting unit for the detection of particles in the particle level of substance without evaporating the collected particles is also disclosed, and to a method of detection based on the system.
