  • Title: Measurement of asbestos dust levels in British asbestos factories in the 1930s.
    Author: Wikeley NJ.
    Journal: Am J Ind Med; 1993 Nov; 24(5):509-20. PubMed ID: 8266927.
    Abstract:
    Since the early reports of the deleterious health effects of asbestos first appeared in the British literature, the paucity of information on dust levels has been decried. Research into archival material reporting various methods of assessing asbestos dust levels in British factories during the 1930s indicates that these levels were high indeed.
