摘要: The National Institute of Justice is the focal point for providing support to State and local law enforcement agencies in the development of counterterrorism technology and standards, including technology needs for chemical and biological defense. In recognizing the needs of State and local emergency first responders, the Office of Law Enforcement Standards (OLES) at the National Institute of Standards and Technology (NIST), supported by the National Institute of Justice (NIJ), the Technical Support Working Group (TSWG), the U.S. Army Soldier and Biological Chemical Command, and the Interagency Board for Equipment Standardization and Interoperability (IAB), is developing chemical and biological defense equipment guides. The guides will focus on chemical and biological equipment in areas of detection, personal protection, decontamination, and communication. This document focuses specifically on assisting the emergency first responder community in the evaluation and purchase of personal protective equipment. This guide includes information that is intended to assist the emergency first responder community in the evaluation and purchase of personal protective equipment (PPE). It includes a thorough market survey of personal protection technologies and commercially available equipment known to the authors as of April 2001. Brief technical discussions are presented that consider the principles of protection of several items. Readers finding this material too technical can omit this information while still making use of the rest of the guide, and readers desiring more technical detail can obtain it from the references listed in appendix B.
