The monitoring of airborne particles in many European countries is carried out using Hirst volumetric trap. The method which was described and elaborated on for the first time by Hirst in 1952 allows physiological measurement of content of pollen grains at normal human breathing rates.
This paper describes the operation of Hirst volumetric trap, discusses an adequate location of the trap and preparation of the drum and microscope slides.
