Record stop time and end time. Mail the badge to ACS Lab in the envelope provided. The analysis reports are available within 48 hours after the samples have been received.

Monitoring Protocol

Periodic monitoring of personnel and room concentration is recommended to monitor workers who are exposed to harmful chemicals.

The general OSHA protocol for personal exposure monitoring is to do two tests more than one week apart. If both results are low, then periodic testing should be done at intervals no more than one year apart. In a one-year period each person who is exposed to the chemical as a regular part of their job should be tested.

We offer many types of monitoring badges. If you need to monitor chemicals that are not listed below, please contact us.
