Introduction
• Methamphetamine SymptomsSymptoms
• Methamphetamine ContaminationContamination
• Laboratory Studies– Characterization of panel

Methamphetamine Symptoms• Little known regarding chronic low
level exposures• Irritation of skin, eyes, mucous
membranes, upper respiratory tract• High levels may cause dizziness• High levels may cause dizziness,
headache, metallic taste, insomnia, high or low blood pressure, etc.
• Chronic exposures may cause irritability, personality changes, anxiety, hallucinations, psychotic y, , p ybehavior
• Smaller infants, altered behavior patterns lower IQ scores teratogenic

Methamphetamine Release
• Methamphetamine released mainly during “ lti t” h b t“salting out” phase but also during “cooking” phasep
• Methamphetamine also released during “smoking”smoking

Meth Surface Contamination
• Current Standards• Current Standards– Surface contamination: 0.05-1.5 µg/100 cm2
• CA 1.5 µg/100 cm2
• CO 0 5 µg/100 cm2• CO 0.5 µg/100 cm2
• Real Labs– Ranged from non-detect to 16,000 µg/100 cm2
A 499 /100 2– Average: 499 µg/100 cm2
• Controlled Cooks– < 2 meters from cook area – average 101 µg/100 cm2
– 2 to 4 meters from cook area – average 41 µg/100 cm2
• Simulated Smoking– Surface areas throughout the room were contaminated withSurface areas throughout the room were contaminated with
up to 35 µg/100 cm2

Concern
• Residents post-meth lab• First responders• Social workers• Vulnerable residents
– About 30-35% of labs seized are residences with childrenresidences with children
– 35% - 55% of children removed from meth labs test positive for
thmeth– 10% of children removed from
homes of heavy users test positive Photo by North Metro Drug Task Force

Methods: Dermal Exposure AnalysisS h i H E d D• Stochastic Human Exposure and Dose Simulation for multimedia (SHEDS-Multimedia)
Absorbed dose estimates– Absorbed dose estimates– Many inputs
• How & when contaminated• Surface loading methamphetamine• Dermal transfer efficiency (TE)• Exposure factors
TE Parameters: Default: CA OEHHA
Surface Level Concentrations:0 1 µg/100 cm2
• Exposure factors
– Default: CA OEHHA– Our TE data
• Wet gloves
– 0.1 µg/100 cm2

Take Home Points
• Wet TE > dry TE for all surfaces• Wet TE on carpet > drywall• Wet TE > dry TE for all surfaces combined• Contamination levels of 1.5 and 0.5 µg/100 cm2
resulted in predicted absorbed doses > RfDR d d f l l l• Recommended surface cleanup level:
