Aerosol Devices

Aerosol Devices is a Fort Collins, Colorado aerosol instrumentation company that develops and sells commercial samplers for physical, chemical, and biological aerosol analysis. Its core products are bioaerosol and particle collection devices based on condensation growth tube technology that enable efficient capture of airborne particles, including viruses, bacteria, fungal spores, proteins, allergens, and ultrafine particles. The company markets tools such as the BioSpot-VIVAS, BioSpot-GEM, and Spot Sampler for infectious disease surveillance, indoor air quality, cleanroom biocontamination monitoring, and aerosol research. Aerosol Devices began commercial operations in 2016 and was acquired by Handix Scientific in July 2022, after which it has continued operating as a division of Handix Scientific. It is best characterized as a life science tools and aerosol sampling device company rather than a therapeutics developer.
