Abstract
A standardized, reproducible method of surrogate dermal monitoring was devised to supplement knowledge of the potential transfer of pesticide residues from floor surfaces to persons in contact with the floor. This device was a 12 kg. foam-covered rolling cylinder equipped with stationary handles. The device was rolled over a cotton cloth (the actual collection media) placed over carpet to be sampled. This method transfers between 1 and 3 percent of the potential available pesticide material from nylon carpeting to the collection media. Transfer from carpet to cotton cloth correlates highly with transfer to cotton clothing worn by persons exercising on the carpet.
