| description | This report covers Man In Simulant Testing (MIST) of the following commercially available, Level C chemical protective suits: the Tyvec(trade name) Protective Wear(trade mark) suit (garage-type, for mechanics), the Kappler CPF(trade name) suit (model # 4T434), the TyChem(trade name) 9400 (style 94160) suit, the TyChem(trade name) SL (style 72150) suit, and the Tyvec(trade name) ProTech F suit. These suits are being considered by law enforcement agencies for use at scenes where chemical warfare agents have been used by terrorists. This testing examined how well the complete protective suit ensembles protect the wearer against vapor adsorption by the skin by exposing test participants wearing the suits to a chemical agent simulant (methyl salicylate) and measuring the Physiological Protective Dosage Factor (PPDF) the wearers received while performing a set of typical law enforcement activities. The results showed that the respective suits provided the wearers with the following average Overall PPDF: standard police uniform - 2.0; Tyvec(trade name) - 4.0; CPF(trade name) 4 - 17.6; TyChem(trade name) 9400- 16.5; TyChem(trade name) SL - 23.7; and the Tyvec(trade name) ProTech F - 41.8.
