A field study of fluoride pollution and of its consequences was made over a period of five years in the vicinity of an alumina reduction plant. This study, based upon the use of a static soda impregnated paper sampler, shows that the results obtained are in good agreement with the atmospheric fluoride concentrations obtained with dynamic samplers, especially when fluoride is present in gaseous form (HF). The results suggest that vertically mounted paper samplers are less sensitive to the collection of particulate fluorides. Collection rate is strongly influenced and increases with speed. If this parameter is known, an accurate estimation of the absolute atmospheric concentration is possible; the values shown by this technique are in good correlation with the value (annual mean) of pasture fluoride content. As a correlation exists between pasture fluoride content and the symptoms shown by cattle, the static filter samplers can predict disease in the case of slow chronic fluorosis. The field study agrees with earlier laboratory experiments and shows the validity of these simple and inexpensive types of exposure methods.
在一家氧化铝还原厂附近进行了为期五年的氟污染及其后果的实地研究。这项基于使用静态苏打浸渍纸采样器的研究表明，所获得的结果与动态采样器测得的大气氟浓度高度一致，特别是当氟以气态形式（HF）存在时。结果表明，垂直安装的纸采样器对颗粒状氟化物的收集不太敏感。收集率受风速强烈影响且随风速增加而提高。如果知道这个参数，就可以准确估计大气中氟的绝对浓度；该技术显示的值与牧场氟含量的（年平均）值具有良好的相关性。由于牧场氟含量与牛表现出的症状之间存在关联，因此静态滤纸采样器可以预测慢性氟中毒情况下的疾病。该实地研究与早期的实验室实验结果一致，表明了这些简单且成本低廉的暴露方法的有效性。
