Special Issue Information
Dear Colleagues,
This Special Issue involves research targeting strategies and techniques commonly used to conduct air contaminant sampling, measurement, and monitoring in occupational workplaces. Researchers who have conducted air contaminant studies using emerging and/or state-of-the-art sampling stategies, monitoring equipment and instrumentation, and data analysis techniques are encouraged to submit abstracts and papers for review. Topics that involve the use of direct-reading instruments and real-time data analysis are encouraged. Air contaminant studies in unique work settings are also of significant interest, as well as studies that involve emerging technologies. Manuscripts on the use of statistical techniques to determine an employee’s overall exposure profile and distribution would also be of special interest.
