The 545 Methanol Badge: A Breakthrough in Personal Exposure Monitoring

Introducing the revolutionary 545 Methanol Badge, a cutting-edge product developed by Assay Technology Inc. This innovative badge offers a convenient and cost-effective solution for accurately determining personal exposure to methanol.

Unparalleled Sensitivity and Versatility

Unlike other badges and methods, the 545 badge overcomes common challenges such as poor desorption recovery and reverse diffusion. It achieves this through the use of bead-shaped activated carbon media (G-BAC) and strong organic solvent extraction. These advanced features make it sensitive enough for 15-minute short-term exposure limit (STEL) sampling, while also providing ample capacity for 8-hour time-weighted average (TWA) sampling.

Precision-Engineered for Methanol Sampling

The 545 badge is specifically tailored for methanol sampling, utilizing a unique form of carbon that binds small molecules more tightly. With an impressive methanol recovery rate of over 99%, this badge ensures accurate and reliable results. It can be used for both 8-hour and 15-minute methanol sampling, making it incredibly versatile for various monitoring needs.

Superior Performance and Recommended Choice

While the Assay 546 and 566 badges are still suitable for methanol sampling, the 545 badge outperforms them in terms of desorption efficiency and reverse diffusion. Its exceptional performance makes it the recommended choice for professionals seeking unparalleled accuracy and reliability in their methanol exposure monitoring efforts.

Ongoing Advancements and Future Applications

Assay Technology Inc. is committed to continuous improvement and expanding the applications of the 545 badge. Currently, the badge has not been validated for other chemicals. However, the company is actively working on including ethanol and isopropyl alcohol in its list of supported substances. This dedication to innovation ensures that the 545 Methanol Badge will remain at the forefront of personal exposure monitoring technology.

Storage and Handling Recommendations

To maintain optimal performance, it is recommended to store the badge at room temperature both before and after use. Additionally, returning the badge to the lab within 14 days of sampling is advised for accurate analysis and reliable results.

In summary, the 545 Methanol Badge offers improved performance, reliability, and versatility for methanol exposure monitoring. Trust Assay Technology Inc.'s expertise and experience to safeguard your health and safety with this groundbreaking product.
