Five (5) filter cassette samples were received on February 14,
1992 from Dow Chemical for fiber count. One (1) filter cassette
sample was unable to be analyzed. Fibers larger than 5 microns in
length were counted by means of phase-contrast microscopy at a
magnification of 400X. The procedure recommended by NIOSH method
7400A was followed. Pertinent information regarding fiber counts
is as follows:
Field Area: 0.00785 mm2 (Walton Beckett Graticule)
Effective Collecting Area:
385 mm2 (25 mm cassette)
855 mm2 (37 mm Cassette)
Limit of Quanititation:
10 fibers/100 fields
Limit of Detection: > Average Blank Count
@ Detection limits are based upon a minimal concentration of 7
fibers/mm2.
