Centro de Documentacion de Fundación MAPFRE - Comparison of asbestos air samples by SEM-EDXA and TEM-EDXA

Notes: Sumario: Because occupational air samples submitted to this laboratory for fibre counting often need to be confirmed as to the type of asbestos, random air samples were compared by a scanning electron microscope (SEM) and a transmission electron microscope (TEM) to determine if both methods yielded comparable resulsts. The results of this study revealed neither and advantage nor a disadvantage for confirmatory analyses of asbestos by either SEM or TEM.
