Abstract |
A personal sampling method is presented: the gas is trapped on silver-nitrate-impregnated filter paper, then analysed for arsenic by x-ray fluorescence. The method can be used for routine monitoring of workers' exposure down to one-tenth of the TLV (TLV=0.05ppm) on a 15l sample. It is simple, safe, and non destructive, and with automatic equipment a large number of samples can be analysed rapidly. |
