ASTM STP 1473 Beryllium: Sampling and Analysis

Ashley K

This STP contains papers from a symposium that took place in April, 2005. The symposium was sponsored by ASTM International Committee D22 on Air Quality and its Subcommittee D22.04 on Sampling and Analysis of Workplace Atmospheres, in cooperation with the Sampling and Analysis Subcommittee of the Beryllium Health and Safety Committee.

Papers in this publication are grouped into sections covering

  • beryllium disease exposure monitoring and standardization issues
  • beryllium exposure measurement
  • on-site monitoring for beryllium - sampling and analytical aspects
The symposium provided a forum for technical exchanges on current research and status regarding beryllium sampling and analysis issues. While the primary emphasis was on current research in the areas of beryllium sample collection, sample preparation, and measurement, participants were able to identify areas where pertinent standards can be developed concerning beryllium sampling and analytical procedures.

This publication includes information on topics such as

  • inter-laboratory evaluation
  • on-site monitoring
  • trace analysis
  • workplace monitoring
  • beryllium reference materials
  • sample preparation
  • traceability analysis
  • beryllium sampling
  • standards
  • beryllium oxide
  • beryllium metal
  • aerosolized beryllium
  • electrically enhanced laser-based measurement
  • real-time monitoring
  • environmental monitoring

Professionals such as industrial hygienists, chemists, health physicists, safety engineers, epidemiologists or others working on advances in sampling and analytical methods for beryllium will find the information contained in this volume helpful.
