A review of personal and portable particulate monitors and samplers for measuring and sampling airborne particulate matter is presented. These monitors and samplers are proving to be valuable tools for assessing individual exposure to environmental and occupationally generated particulates. The devices are characterized in terms of their sampling characteristics, their monitoring or measurement technique, their particle size separation (50% cut point) capabilities, their sampling flow rate, and their sampling duration per one battery charging cycle. All of the monitors and some of the samplers are commercially available. Commercial sources and originators (in the case of research devices) are made available. 28 references.
