Abstract

A passive chemical dosimeter for assessing long-term exposure to toxic substances (aniline and its derivatives) in the atmosphere of inhabitable premises was described. The compounds to be determined were accumulated on an absorption filter due to a chemical reaction with a selective agent upon the many-hour exposure of the device. Analytical performance of chemical dosimeters (diffusion coefficients, chemisorption pre-concentration rate, and detection limits) was evaluated. The concentrations of aniline, p-chloroaniline, 3,4-dichloroaniline, and o-toluidine in the air of chemical laboratories and smoking rooms were determined.
