This report describes recent work performed at The Aerospace Corporation to determine the capability of the COT laser photoacoustic technique to detect the rocket fuels hydrazine, monomethylhydrazine (MM4), and unsymmetrical dimethylhydrazine (UDHE) at low parts-per-billion (ppb) levels in the ambient air in real time. These compounds are highly toxic and recent studies indicate that they may also be carcinogens. Revised OempaIeional Safety and Reaith-*dmlnistration (OSgA) regu-lationa are expected that will reduce the maximum allowable concentrations of Do
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
