Counting Rules for Estimating Concentrations of Long Asbestos Fibers.

Mounting evidence that long asbestos fibers (e.g. >20 or even 40 μm) pose the greatest cancer risk underscores the need for accurate measurement of concentrations of such fibers. These fiber lengths are of the same order of magnitude as the size of openings in the grids (typically ≈90 μm per side) u...
