Dissolution Reaction and Surface Modification of UICC Amosite in Mimicked Gamble's Solution: A Step towards Filling the Gap between Asbestos Toxicity and Its Crystal Chemical Features
This was a laboratory experiment on fibres, not a study of people. The authors placed 20 mg of UICC amosite asbestos (from the Penge mine, South Africa) in 40 mL of mimicked Gamble's solution, a simulated biological fluid, at pH 4.5 and 37 degrees…

Wollastonite fibers in vitro generate reactive oxygen species able to lyse erythrocytes and activate the complement alternate pathway
…ferric chloride and dithionite. In addition, ROS generation was partially inhibited (by 46-54%) in the reactions performed in the presence of 1,3-dimethyl-2-thiourea (DMTU), a strong hydroxyl radical scavenger. Wollastonite fibers were…
