Comparison of three sampling and analytical methods for measuring m-xylene in expired air of exposed humans / Robert A. Glaser, James E. Arnold and Stanley A. Shulman

Sumario: Three breath sampling and analytical methods were tested following exposure of 12 subjects for 4 hr 75 ppm m-xylene in a controlled environmental chamber. In this paper, the authors compare (1) the precision and accuracy of the mainstream and sidestream mixed-expired breath sampling and analytical procedures to the precision and accuracy of a conventional alveolar sampling and analytical procedure and (2) the use of both mixed-expired and alveolar breath sampling and analisis for pharmacokinetic modeling
