Retention of asbestos fibers in the human body.
The number, type, and size of retained asbestos fibers were measured by scanning electron microscopy (SEM) in lung tissues of 10 workers who had died from lung cancer or mesothelioma. The levels were 190-3000 x 10(6) fibers/g of dry tissue in three crocidolite sprayers, 6-39 x 10(6) fibers/g of dry...
