The Beginning of the Science Underpinning Occupational Hygiene

J. W. CHERRIE

University of Aberdeen and the Institute of Occupational Medicine, Edinburgh EH8 9SU, UK

Received 8 January 2003; in final form 20 January 2003

Sherwood and Greenhalgh’s 1960 paper is a seminal one for the development of the science of human exposure. There are three key elements in the paper that deserve to be highlighted: the development of the first personal sampling pump and sampling head; the first comparison between personal sampling and static sampling; the first observation of the possible effect of personal sampling on the individual being sampled.

Keywords: human exposure; personal sampling pump; personal sampling; static sampling
