Abstract: A device (1), for measuring an amount of dirt (50), comprising: a receiver (2) for receiving a sample collector (40), with a dirt sample attached to the front surface (42); a first (11) and second (12) contact; an electrically conductive surface (14); an aligner (20) for positioning the electrically conductive surface (14) in contact with the back surface (44) of the received sample collector (40); and a resistance meter (30) configured to measure an electrical resistance between the first (11) and second contact (12), wherein, when the first (11) and second contact (12) are placed in contact with the front surface (42) and the electrically conductive surface (14) is placed in contact with the back surface (44), the measured electrical resistance between the first (11) and second contact (12) represents the amount of dirt (50) of the dirt sample between the first (11) and second contact (12).
