What's New from the Methods Development Team at the OSHA Salt Lake Technical Center
  • OSHA analytical methods ID-206, ID-125G, ID-121, and ID-105 that employ filter sampling for metals have been modified to help ensure that all particles which enter the cassette sampler are included as part of the sample. This has long been OSHA’s policy, and the additional emphasis is intended to reinforce that policy.
  • Butyl Acetate (n-, iso, sec-, ter- isomers) - Method 1009
  • Ethylene Oxide - Method 1010
  • Hexavalent Chromium - Method ID-215 (Version 2)
  • Hydrogen Sulfide - Method 1008
Current Projects
  • Microwave Popcorn Flavoring Agents. Research to find a new sampling and analytical method for low levels of Diacetyl and Acetoin is currently being performed.
  • Sulfur Dioxide. New Active Sampling Method.
