Abstract：Pathogenic microbial aerosols in the air are important carrier for the transmission of respiratory pathogens, the research and development of efficient,fast and safe sampling technology and sampler have become hotspots in recent years, which is of great significance to the prevention and control of pathogenic microorganisms and their transmission. This paper makes a detailed analysis and comparison of the current aerosol sampling techniques and samplers which are suitable for pathogenic microorganisms in the air, covering the sampling technology principle, aerosol sampler type, the advantages and disadvantages of the sampler, and the performance evaluation. The latest technical developments were reviewed and the facing questions and challenges were discussed. Besides, future prospects are presented.
