HSE: MDHS Method 6/3: Lead and inorganic compounds of lead in air
Laboratory method using flame or electrothermal atomic absorption
spectrometry
Note 1: This method updates and replaces MDHS 6/2.1 The principal change is that the revised method now recommends use of the sampling procedure for inhalable dust described in MDHS 14/2.2 However, existing users may continue to use the single-hole sampler recommended for sampling lead in air in previous HSE guidance,1,3 since field comparisons have established that it usually gives
equivalent results to inhalable samplers for this application.
