Personal Samplers for Assessing Aerosol Hazards
Technology Overview:
By taking the characteristics of aerosol particles suspended in the air, personal aerosol samplers for workers are designed using cyclonic separation, filtration or inertial impaction mechanisms to collect respirable dust or nanoparticles, thereby assessing the hazardous exposure dose of workers to aerosols.
Industrial Applications:
These samplers are designed according to the international respirable dust sizing criteria and can be used for occupational health and labor personal hazard assessment.

Institute of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health, Ministry of Labor
The Institute of Labor, Occupational Safety and Health, , Ministry of Labor originally named the Institute of Occupational Safety and Health, was officially established in August 1992 under the efforts of the government and the academia, becoming the most important research institute responsible for occupational safety and health in Taiwan. Over the years, the Institute has strived to research and analyze various issues that may endanger labor health and safety and improve working conditions. The Institute has proposed different solutions from social, economic, cultural, preventive, controlling, and medical perspectives, and the research results are used not only for formulating and amending domestic labor and occupational safety and health policies and regulations, but are also promoted to the industry via research papers, publications, the internet, exhibitions, and technology transfer, which help to enhance local labor and occupational safety and health standards in order to reach the goal of ensuring labor safety and health. The Institute has achieved significant results.
