Six (6) filter cassette samples were received on May 01, 1992 from Dow Chemical for fiber count. 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 mmz (Walton Beckett Graticule) Effective Collecting Area:
385 mm2 (25 mm Cassette) 855 mm2 (37 mm Cassette) Limit of Quantitation: 10 fibers/100 fields Limit of Detection: > Average Blank Count @ Detection limits are based upon a minimal concentration of 7 f ibers/mmz.
