Excerpt from the 1994 summary edition of the Public Health Service's Seventh Annual Report on Carcinogens: the cover and the asbestos entry, which begins at the end of the arsenic entry. The entry summarizes animal studies of chrysotile, crocidolite and amosite and the forms and properties of asbestos. It covers production and use, worker exposure estimates from the national occupational exposure survey, and exposure of families through contaminated work clothing. It closes with federal regulation, including the NIOSH/OSHA Asbestos Work Group's recommended limit of 100,000 fibers per cubic meter and OSHA's 0.2 fiber/cc limit.
