Ambient air - Sampling and analysis of airborne pollen grains and fungal spores for networks related to allergy - Volumetric Hirst method

This document specifies the procedure to sample continuously and to analyse the concentration of airborne pollen grains and fungal spores in ambient air using the volumetric Hirst type sampler [1] [2] [3] (see Annex A) or an even equivalent method assuring comparable data.
This document describes both the sampling and the analysis procedures for the purpose of networks related to allergy. For the other tasks mentioned in the introduction, other specifications may be required.

Außenluft - Probenahme und Analyse luftgetragener Pollen und Pilzsporen für Allergienetzwerke - Volumetrische Hirst-Methode

Dieses Dokument legt das Verfahren fest zur kontinuierlichen Probenahme und zur Analyse der Konzentration luftgetragener Pollenkörner und Pilzsporen in der Umgebungsluft mittels eines volumetrischen Sammlers nach dem Hirst-Prinzip [1] [2] [3] (siehe Anhang A) oder einer gleichwertigen, vergleichbare Daten liefernden Methode.
Dieses Dokument beschreibt sowohl die Probenahme als auch die Analyseverfahren für die Zwecke von Allergienetzwerken. Für die anderen in der Einleitung erwähnten Aufgaben können andere Spezifikationen erforderlich sein.

Air ambiant - Échantillonnage et analyse des grains de pollen en suspension dans l'air et des spores fongiques pour les réseaux relatifs à l’allergie - Méthode volumétrique de Hirst

La présente Norme européenne spécifie le mode opératoire pour l’échantillonnage en continu et l’analyse de la concentration en grains de pollen et spores fongiques dans l’air ambiant en utilisant l’échantillonneur volumétrique de Hirst [1] [2] [3] (voir l’Annexe A) ou toute autre méthode équivalente garantissant des données comparables.
La présente Norme européenne décrit les modes opératoires d’échantillonnage et d’analyse aux fins des réseaux relatifs à l’allergie. Pour les autres objectifs mentionnés dans l’introduction, des spécifications différentes peuvent être requises.

Zunanji zrak - Vzorčenje in analiza cvetnega prahu in trosov gliv v zraku za alergijsko omrežje - Volumetrična Hirstova metoda

Ta dokument določa postopek za stalno vzorčenje in analiziranje koncentracije cvetnega prahu ter trosov gliv v zunanjem zraku z volumetričnim vzorčevalnikom tipa Hirst. Ta dokument opisuje postopke vzorčenja in tudi analize za namen alergijskih omrežij. Morda so potrebne druge specifikacije. Med izpostavljenostjo pelodnim zrnom in trosom gliv ter onesnaženostjo zraka obstaja sinergija, za katero so potrebne nekatere določene in dodatne informacije, da se lahko zmanjša tveganje za vpliv na zdravje.
