LCS Laboratory Inc. provides ready-to-use air sampling kits designed to meet the specific needs of health and safety professionals in medical laboratories. These kits enable accurate detection of airborne contaminants, such as chemical vapours and particulate matter, ensuring compliance with occupational exposure limits and helping protect workers from potential health risks.
Technical Details of the Service
Our air sampling kits are developed for experienced safety professionals familiar with air sampling techniques and interpretation of laboratory results. Each kit includes the necessary tools to collect high-quality air samples:
- Portable Air Sampling Pumps: Adjustable flow rates for precise sample collection.
- Diffusive Samplers and Adsorbent Tubes: Capture vapours effectively.
- Filters and Cassette Holders: Designed for particulate sampling.
- Instruction Manuals: Detailed guidelines to streamline the sampling process.
Targeted Tests
The kits are optimized for detecting common airborne chemicals in medical labs, including:
- Ethanol: Present in medical solutions and adhesives; sampled with diffusive badges or charcoal tubes.
- Isopropanol: Found in cleaning wipes; collected using diffusive badges or charcoal tubes.
- Formaldehyde: Used in specimen preservation; sampled with DNPH tubes (NIOSH 2016) or diffusive badges (OSHA 1007).
- Glutaraldehyde: A disinfectant for sterilizing heat-sensitive equipment; collected with DNPH-treated filters (OSHA 64).
- Hydrogen Peroxide: Common disinfectant; sampled using filters treated with titanium oxysulfate.
- Peracetic Acid: Another disinfectant; sampled using specialty tubes.
- Xylenes: Used in microbiological stains; collected with charcoal tubes (NIOSH 1501) or diffusive badges.
Sampling typically takes 4–6 hours under representative conditions. If additional tests are required, we can customize the kit to meet your needs. If this is your first time testing we can provide online training. Ready to enhance safety in your medical laboratory?
