Letter from Union Carbide's Associate Medical Director to a colleague at Union Carbide Europa in Geneva. It comments on the report "Asbestos As A Health Hazard In The United Kingdom" by I. C. Sayers and describes preliminary injection studies of Coalinga fiber in guinea pigs, rats and rabbits, compared with Johns Manville fiber. It also discusses whether the 5 million particles per cubic foot threshold limit value would prevent asbestosis or mesothelioma, and supports a trace element analysis of the standard asbestos sample.
