National Technical Reports Library

The National Technical Information Service acquires, indexes, abstracts, and archives the largest collection of U.S. government-sponsored technical reports in existence. The NTRL offers online, free and open access to these authenticated government technical reports. Technical reports and documents in its repository may be available online for free either from the issuing federal agency, the U.S. Government Publishing Office’s Federal Digital System website, or through search engines.

Analytical Methods Evaluation and Validation: Arsenic, Nickel, Tungsten, Vanadium, Talc, Wood Dust.

PB83155325

Publication Date	1981
Personal Author	Carlin, L. M.; Colovos, G.; Garland, D.; Jamin, M. E.; Klenck, M.
Page Count	224
Abstract	Methods for the sampling and analysis of arsenic (7440382) (As), nickel (7440020) (Ni), tungsten (7440337) (W), vanadium (7440622) (V), talc (14807966), and wood dust in the workplace were developed. As, Ni, W and samples were collected on a cellulose ester filter and analyzed by graphite furnace atomic absorption spectrophotometry (GFAAS) or flame atomic absorption spectrophotometry. Talc samples were collected on a polyvinyl-chloride filter and analyzed by X-ray diffraction. Wood dust samples were collected on glass fiber filters and were analyzed gravimetrically. The authors conclude that the methods for Ni, W, soluble V, and wood dust were fully validated and that validation for As, insoluble W, and talc are still pending further investigation.
