Abstract

This study compared size-selective workplace protection factors (WPFs) of an N95 elastomeric respirator (ER) and an N95 filtering facepiece respirator (FFR) in agricultural environments. Twenty-five healthy farm workers ranging in age from 20 to 30 years voluntarily participated in this study. Altogether, eight farms were included representing three different types: two horse farms, three pig barns, and three grain handling sites. Subjects wore the ER and FFR while performing their daily activities, such as spreading hay, feeding livestock, and shoveling. Aerosol concentrations in an optical particle size range of 0.7-10 μm were determined simultaneously inside and outside the respirator during the first and last 15 min of a 60-min experiment. For every subject, size-selective WPFs were calculated in 1-min intervals and averaged over 30 min. For the ER, geometric mean WPFs were 172, 321, 1013, 2097, and 2784 for particle diameters of 0.7-1.0, 1.0-2.0, 2.0-3.0, 3.0-5.0, and 5.0-10.0 μm, respectively. Corresponding values for the FFR were 67, 124, 312, 909, and 2089. The 5th percentiles for the ER and FFR were higher than the assigned protection factor of 10 and varied from 28 to 250 and from 16 to 223, respectively. Results show that the N95 ER and FFR tested in the study provided an expected level of protection for workers on agricultural farms against particles ranging from 0.7 to 10 μm. WPFs for the ER were higher than the FFR for all particle size ranges. WPFs for both respirator types increased with increasing particle size.

摘要

本研究比较了 N95 弹性体呼吸器(ER)和 N95 过滤式面罩呼吸器(FFR)在农业环境中的尺寸选择性工作场所保护因子(WPF)。25 名年龄在 20 至 30 岁之间的健康农场工人自愿参加了这项研究。共有 8 个农场参与,代表三种不同类型:两个马场、三个猪圈和三个谷物处理场。研究对象在佩戴 ER 和 FFR 的同时进行日常活动,如散布干草、喂养牲畜和铲运。在 60 分钟实验的前 15 分钟和最后 15 分钟内,同时在呼吸器内外测定 0.7-10 μm 光学粒径范围内的气溶胶浓度。对于每个研究对象,在 1 分钟间隔内计算尺寸选择性 WPF,并在 30 分钟内平均。对于 ER,0.7-1.0、1.0-2.0、2.0-3.0、3.0-5.0 和 5.0-10.0 μm 粒径的几何平均 WPF 分别为 172、321、1013、2097 和 2784。FFR 的相应值分别为 67、124、312、909 和 2089。ER 和 FFR 的第 5 百分位数高于 10 的指定保护因子,分别从 28 到 250 和从 16 到 223 不等。结果表明,在研究中测试的 N95 ER 和 FFR 为农业农场的工人提供了对 0.7 至 10 μm 范围内的颗粒的预期水平的保护。对于所有粒径范围,ER 的 WPF 均高于 FFR。两种呼吸器类型的 WPF 均随粒径的增加而增加。
