GhostWipes for Surface Sampling
GhostWipe™ For Surface Sampling,
Including Lead and Beryllium Testing
This revolutionary product eases sample preparation and analysis of surface lead
or surface dust. The GhostWipe is a sturdy wiping material moistened with DI water
that holds together even on the roughest wiping surfaces. In the lab, the GhostWipe
readily and completely dissolves during the digestion process. This feature provides
more complete dispersion of analytes and more uniform recoveries.
In addition, there is no
messy fibrous material
to clog sample uptake
capillary or nebulizer.
GhostWipes meet all
ASTM Designation E
1792 specifications for
sampling materials
for lead in surface
dust. Wipes are 15cm x
15cm and are supplied
in individual sealed
packets.

sample is individually labeled with the exact amount of lead the wipe contains.
Each spike sample contains 175-250 micrograms of lead per wipe and comes with
a certificate of analysis showing the Sample ID# and the starting concentration of
the dust.
