Sp. Levine et al., CRITICAL-REVIEW OF METHODS OF SAMPLING, ANALYSIS, AND MONITORING FOR TDI AND MDI, American Industrial Hygiene Association journal, 56(6), 1995, pp. 581-589
This article is a critical review of certain methods that have been us
ed for the sampling, analysis, and monitoring of toluene diisocyanate
(TDI) and methylene bisphenyl diisocyanate (MDI). Only those methods t
hat have received relatively widespread application are addressed. The
review includes a ''tutorial style'' discussion of basic definitions,
and basic principles and procedures of qualify control and metrology
for sampling, analysis, and monitoring. Recommendations are given for
future work in this area. Proper exposure assessment is critical in th
e risk analysis process, since both exposure and effect measurements a
re required.
