Exposure to asbestos fibres in air
Small quantities are present in air breathed by
most people without developing asbestos-
related disease
People who have developed disease from
asbestos were exposed to workplace air levels
around 5 fibres/ml
Measured E in public buildings, schools
0.0001- 0.0005 fibres/ml.
Life-time E at this level < 1 in 100,000 life-
time cancer risk.
