3M monitor badges are simple and effective devices that collect certain gas/vapour airborne contaminants using the principle of diffusion. They assist in the assessment of workplace contaminant measurement, both personal and background.
Collect and monitor ethylene oxide gas and other organic vapours and airborne chemicals in the workplace, with 3M™ Ethylene Oxide Monitor Badge, 3551. Our simple yet effective device assists in the measurement and assessment of workplace contaminants, both personal and background. Simply attach it to your collar – the contaminant defuses through the permeable membrane where it’s collected by the active absorbent. The sample should then be sent separately to a laboratory for analysis. The concentration level in the sampling area is calculated based on the quantity absorbed into the monitor badge in relation to the exposure time.

Wearing a medical mask can help limit the spread of some respiratory disease. However, using a mask alone is not guaranteed to stop infections and should be combined with other prevention measures including hand and respiratory hygiene and avoiding close contact – at least 1 metre (3 feet) distance between yourself and other people.
WHO advises on rational use of medical masks thus avoiding unnecessary wastage of precious resources and potential mis-use of masks (see Advice on the use of masks). This means using masks only if you have respiratory symptoms (coughing or sneezing), have suspected 2019-nCoV infection with mild symptoms or are caring for someone with suspected 2019-nCoV infection. A suspected 2019-nCoV infection is linked to travel in an area in China where 2019-nCoV has been reported, or close contact with someone who has travelled from China and has respiratory symptoms.
