The Assessment of exposure in terms of fibres / Graham W. Gibbs

Paper read at the Workshop on Health Risks Associated with Chrysotile Asbestos, held in Jersey, Channel Islands, 14-17 November 1993

Sumario: The purpose of this paper is to examine the exposure component of "exposure-response" relationships used in epidemiological studies of chrysotile workers. Because the main diseases under investigation, lung cancer and mesothelioma, usually occur decades after first first exposure, estimates of exposure levels in such studies have depended on historical measurement methods and data
