Summary of Te

19、st Method4.1 Particles potentially containing beryllium from work-place air or surfaces, or both, are collected in the field usingprocedures described in ASTM International standards. Toextract (or dissolve) beryllium in the collected samples, themedia in or on which the samples are collected (that

20、is, airsample, vacuum sample or wipe) are treated using an acidicextraction solution containing dilute ammonium bifluoride,NH4HF2(1).3The presence of active fluoride ions (HF bydissociation of ammonium bifluoride in acidic medium) en-ables dissolution of refractory materials such as “high-fired”bery

21、llium oxide. The extraction solution produced from eachsample is then filtered and an aliquot of this extract is added toa pH-adjusted detection solution which contains a beryllium-specific optical fluorescence reagent (1, 2). The fluorescenceexhibited by this final solution is then measured on a ca

22、libratedfluorometer to quantify the amount of beryllium in the sample(3).5. Significance and Use5.1 Exposure to beryllium can cause a potentially fataldisease, and occupational exposure limits for beryllium in airand on surfaces have been established to reduce exposure risksto potentially affected w

23、orkers (4, 5). Sampling and analyticalmethods for beryllium are needed in order to meet thechallenges relating to exposure assessment and risk reduction.Sampling and analysis methods, such as the procedure de-scribed in this test method, are desired in order to facilitateon-site and fixed-site labor

24、atory measurement of trace beryl-lium. Beryllium analysis results can then be used as a basis forexposure assessment and protection of human health.6. Interferences6.1 This test method is highly specific for beryllium. Othersolvated metal ions are either bound by ethylenediaminetet-raacetic acid (ED

25、TA) in the detection solution, or they precipi-tate out due to the high alkalinity of the detection solution (1).In case the sample is suspected of having fluorescent organiccontaminants that are suspected to be present, then theirpresence can be checked and removed (6).NOTE 1If the samples are susp

26、ected of having a contaminant thatfluoresces and has excitation and emission spectra that overlap with thatof the signal produced by the fluorescent dye bound to beryllium, then thiscontaminant needs to be removed. The presence of such a contaminant canbe verified by subjecting the filtered sample t

27、o fluorescence excitationafter the extraction step (without adding the fluorescent dye). If afluorescence signal is detected, then that signal is ascribed to the presenceof a fluorescent contaminant. To remove the contaminant, high-purityactivated charcoal is added to the beryllium extraction soluti

28、on and theextraction procedure is carried out at elevated temperature (80 to 90C forat least 45 minutes). If the beryllium extraction procedure has alreadybeen performed, then after the addition of activated charcoal, theextraction process is repeated at the elevated temperature. The solution isfilt

29、ered to remove the activated charcoal before making the measurementsolution. The measurement solution is made by the addition of thefluorescent dye solution to an aliquot of the extraction solution. Details ofthis process have been published (6).6.2 If iron is present in high excess in the sample (t

30、ypicallymore than 20 M), the resulting measurement solution mayappear golden-yellow. In this case the solution should be leftfor an hour or more for the iron to precipitate. The solutionshould then be re-filtered using the same procedure as forfiltering the dissolution solution (after the dissolutio

31、n step),prior to fluorescence measurement.7.
