Excerpt
INTRODUCTION: The American Conference of Governmental Industrial Hygienists (ACGIH) [2], the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) [3], and the European Standardization Organization (Comite Europeen de Normalisation, CEN) [2,3] have adopted identical particle size-selective sampling conventions for inhalable, thoracic, and respirable aerosols (Figure 1). The purpose of these conventions is to provide a scientific basis for a new generation of particle size selective occupational exposure limits (OELs) for aerosols...
