  • Title: Wipe sampling as a tool for monitoring aerosol deposition in workplaces.
    Author: Nygren O.
    Journal: J Environ Monit; 2006 Jan; 8(1):49-52. PubMed ID: 16395459.
    Abstract:
    As a complement to traditional exposure assessment, monitoring deposition of aerosols can be a simple and quick screening method for identifying deposited aerosols. In this presentation examples of screening studies, based on wipe sampling in combination with adequate analytical techniques, are described. These screening methods are rapid, simple and easy to carry out. The examples given in this presentation show a broad applicability and the methods are proven useful for assessing aerosol distribution in the workplace as well as to identify target spots for more extensive assessment of a worker's exposure situation.
