A comparison of the effects of exposure of baboons to crocidolite and fibrous-glass dusts.

B Goldstein, R E Rendall, I Webster.   

Abstract

Epidemiological studies have not revealed any significant health hazards from exposure to fibrous glass and animal experiments have been inconclusive. Baboons exposed to a fibrous-glass dust cloud with size features similar to those of crocidolite asbestos developed focal peribronchiolar fibrosis with scant ferruginous body formation. The lesions were similar to those produced by crocidolite but were less extensive. No neoplasms occurred.
