Sampling Methods For Personal Exposure to Herbicides

Presented by: Patrick O’Shaughnessy, PhD, CIH, FAIHA and The Heartland Center for Occupational Health and Safety
Webinar Information: coeh.berkeley.edu/23ihw0613
Description:
Many herbicides can exist in the atmosphere as both a droplet and evaporated vapor. Therefore, methods to assess personal exposures to herbicides samplers must be developed to optimize capture of both droplet and vapor phases. This webinar will describe the qualities of two such samplers. Measurements taken in both the lab and field will be presented to demonstrate sampler qualities and to detail the considerations needed to properly assess herbicide exposures.
