SwissPollen: Empowering Allergy Sufferers with Real-Time Pollen Insights
Pollen allergies, a common affliction in Europe, can turn the joys of spring/summer into seasons of
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.

“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.”

“The Finnish Meteorological Institute is very satisfied with the cooperation of Swisens AG. The agreed research and development programme is progressing well and mutual openness and collaborative atmosphere strongly supports it. Swisens participated in a workshop and supported the scientists in recording the test data based on the cooperation agreement. A particular outcome of the workshop was a new procedure for the calibration of real-time monitoring systems based on the SwisensAtomizer. It has been proven to deliver cleaner results than the approaches tried so far in different countries. FMI is very satisfied with cooperation of Swisens AG. Our suggestions regarding software tools were quickly accepted and implemented by Swisens engineers. We are indeed happy to work with Swisens and start opening real-time data to professionals in Finland.”

“Being able to aerosolize different powder samples in the lab to perform experiments related to occupational health has been one of our challenges. With the SwisensAtomizer at hand, we now have a small device which helps us to produce a stable dust atmosphere to load filters in a consistent manner, serving as calibration filters for later analysis. Swisens AG has always shown great support concerning our demands on the SwisensAtomizer. We are delighted to collaborate with Swisens AG.”
