New detoxification processes for asbestos fibers in the environment
…Val Malenco fibers into non-fibrous debris. Chrysotile's crystal and spectral signatures disappeared, and magnesium oxalate was the only crystalline reaction product detected, apart from reactor steel debris. Treated Balangero fibers still showed serpentine features…

Potential toxicity of nonregulated asbestiform minerals: balangeroite from the western Alps. Part 3: Depletion of antioxidant defenses
…crocidolite incubation. This effect was not related to any increased content of oxidized glutathione, or to any enhanced efflux of glutathione, suggesting that balangeroite fibers, like crocidolite, might favor the reaction of GSH with other molecules.

Surface reactivity and cell responses to chrysotile asbestos nanofibers
…Alps. Electron microscopy, X-ray diffraction, and fluorescence spectroscopy revealed that the procedure does not affect mineralogical and chemical composition. Surface reactions related to oxidative stress, free radical generation, bioavailability of iron, and antioxidant depletion, revealed…
