Asbestos workers are unintentional victims of industrial progress. They are at risk of pulmonary fibrosis, pleural calcification, mesotheliomas and lung cancer. Asbestos exposure is now widespread, involving not only air but also drinking water, wine and beer.1 Fibers have been found in the lungs of people without industrial asbestos exposure. Whatever

Orientation of asbestos in asbestos cement
Cement and Concrete Research, 1979The orientation of asbestos fibers in abestos cement can be described by a directional distribution function characterized by two parameters: 1. σ12 — the distribution dispersion in a plane normal to the direction of the external pressure applied in forming the product (XOY plane), and 2. σ22 — the distribution dispersion in a plane containing

Abstract Chrysotile asbestos hemolyses erythrocytes within 10 minutes and over a wide range of pH. Other forms of asbestos show varying hemolytic activities which are related to the magnesium:silicon ratio of each form studied. Erythrocytes from different species of animals show different degrees of hemolysis when exposed to chrysotile, amosite, and ...
