Detect what's in the air.
Aerosol measurement with Swisens
Our solutions enable the detection of bioaerosols, pollutants and other solid particles for industry and science. In close partnership, we actively contribute to better health, scientific knowledge and productivity worldwide.
Our solutions at a glance:
Pollen monitoring in real time
The interaction of pollen load, air pollution and climate change brings together a large community of interest. Swisens offers the unique all-in-one solution for monitoring pollen exposure in real time.
Bioaerosol monitoring every minute
Primary biological aerosol particles can cause diseases in humans, animals and plants. Our measuring instruments enable reliable monitoring and identification of airborne bioaerosols.
Bioaerosol research in focus
The impact of bioaerosols on our environment and climate encounters a large sum of basic and applied scientific disciplines. Our technology offers the possibility to find answers to existing research questions.
Discover the aerosol microcosm
Our technology captures data about the properties of a single particle. Artificial intelligence ensures that the particle is identified.

The latest news and updates from Swisens
Swisens wins at the Central Switzerland Startup Prize
Swisens wins the prize endowed with 50,000 Swiss francs as one of a total of 5 nominated start-ups in the category “growth phase”. A successful event to mark the 25th anniversary of the Albert Köchlin Foundation.
From particle to Screen
This article describes how we convert individual bioaerosol particles into data available on our screen. In general, we try to answer one main question: How does real-time bioaerosol data get to users?
Relative fluorescence spectrum of SwisensPoleno Jupiter
In this blog article you will learn about the relative fluorescence spectrum of SwisensPoleno Jupiter. We will introduce you step by step to the basics of fluorescence and explain the advantages and disadvantages of relative fluorescence in the real-time measurement of bioaerosols.
How to analyze aerosol data from real-time measurement
The latest technologies allow the measurement and monitoring of aerosol particles in real time. A measuring system continuously draws in air and measures and identifies the particles it contains. This is also the case with the measurement systems from Swisens. In this article, we will show you one way to analyze aerosol data from real-time measurements using our measurement systems and software solutions.
Can SwisensPoleno identify pollen in my region?
Can SwisensPoleno identify pollen in my region? To address this question, in this article we look at our systems for real-time monitoring of pollen. We show which pollen types SwisensPoleno can currently identify. In addition, you will learn what ways exist should the pollen taxa you want not be on the list.
Cost comparison: automatic versus traditional pollen monitoring
In this blog post we venture a comparison of the costs of automated versus traditional pollen monitoring. We look at the initial costs as well as the long-term operating costs of traditional pollen counting with the “Hirst method” versus an automated solution for real-time pollen monitoring.

“I speak on behalf of my colleagues who are Urban Observatory Principal Investigators and Research Collaborators from the University of Manchester that we have rarely seen, or been provided with such exemplary support as that provided by Swisens. Swisens customer support has been remarkable given the current situation, from remote training and commissioning to rapid support for hardware and software tools specific to our needs to extremely well organised seminars that actually focus on customer feedback and needs. In particular we have been impressed with the Swisens open source data approach and their attention to different users specific needs. Swisens technical innovations has already generated enormous interest in a bioaerosol-aerobiology community that until recently has been limited with respect to real-world and near real-time detection and importantly quantification of airborne bioaerosol concentrations. Their approach has developed significant rapport with multi-disciplinary researchers and Swisens should be lauded for this.”
