Analysis of Spacecraft Air
The Toxicology Laboratory monitors airborne contaminants in spacecraft air.
Real-time in-flight analytical instruments include carbon dioxide
(CO2 monitors), formaldehyde badges,
and a compound specific analyzer for combustion products (CSA-CP).
Post-flight analyses are done on archival samples of spacecraft air obtained
either at specific times and locations during a mission using "grab sample containers"
(GSC) or accumulated
throughout the mission on absorbent columns called solid sorbent air samplers (SSAS).
