Popis: SUMMARY For lack of space, methods for the determination of other types of aerotoxicants have not been discussed. For example, carbon monoxide-which has killed many individuals in confined areas and which is said to affect the central nervous system even at relatively low levels558 -has been reviewed elsewhere.559 Others like sulfur trioxide and nitrogen dioxide could be considered. Actually, long, thorough, and separate reviews on the analysis of each of the common air-pollutant gases would be invaluable. The ideal situation in the analysis of these simple unique chemicals would be a relatively inexpensive little black box which would quantitatively measure the aerotoxicant in the airstream being pulled through the box. An alternative dry method would measure the aerotoxicant directly in the air over the distance covered by some laser beam. With the development of better monitoring techniques, improved manual techniques would also be necessary for calibration purposes. Surprisingly, highly sensitive dire...
