Size-dependent retention of elongate mineral particles in human lungs
Introduction: Lung deposition of elongate amphibole particles is an important process impacting the risk of cancer. There is, however, a significant gap in scientific literature characterizing the role of particle size in the differences observed for deposition and clearance rate in the human respiratory system. The purpose of the paper is to explore the relationship between size distribution of elongate mineral particles in human lungs compared …
Defining control reference ranges in biologic samples in analytical laboratories
Mineral analytic laboratories define control reference ranges to interpret the significance of an individual’s prior exposures. Control reference ranges are internally compiled and defined for two scenarios: background controls—only subjects with ambient asbestos exposure and no increased risk of asbestos related disease, and asbestosis range controls, utilized for the diagnosis of asbestos-related lung fibrosis/asbestosis and for asbestos-relate…
Comparative analysis of asbestos body and fiber content in formalin-fixed vs. paraffin-embedded lung tissue
Introduction: Asbestos body and fiber burdens may be determined using different preparations of lung tissue. Paraffin-embedded tissue requires more complex steps than formalin-fixed tissue. A prior study highlighted potential variations in the measurement of retained mineral fibers in different lung preparations and prompted this expanded interlaboratory analysis. Data from exposed subjects referred to a Swiss laboratory were compared with the re…
