Abstract |
Results of 2 studies in 1977 and 1979 in a factory employing 470 workers. In 1977, 13.5% of the air samples collected contained >2 fibres/m3 as against 1.35% in 1979. This improvement is due to machine enclosure, automation of bag opening, boosting of the ventilation system and the use of mixtures of asbestos of known composition. |
