Estimates of past exposure to respirable man-made fibres in the European insulation wool industry / J. Dogson, J. Cherric and S. Croat
Sumario: This paper describes a procedure for estimating past exposure levels at cach of the insulation wool factories included in the epidemiological study. This is based on the finding of the HEI (historical environmental investigation), revised estimates of current airborne fibre levels and experimental assessments of the dustiness of old and new insulation products. These dust emission measurements arc presented in this paper. A model of historical exposure levels at each insulation wool factory is derived to permit semi-quantitive estimates of past exposure for use in further epidemiological studies
