The International Journal of Toxicology and Risk Assessment published a paper by C&IH’s Dr. Andrey Korchevskiy, Arseniy Korchevskiy, and Dr. Ann Wylie. The paper, “Reconstruction of Lung Concentrations for Elongate Mineral Particles with Asbestiform and Non-Asbestiform Habit,” compares how asbestiform fibers and non-asbestiform cleavage fragments behave once deposited in lung tissue, finding that asbestiform fibers are retained far more readily and carry substantially higher mesothelioma risk per unit of lung dose. The full paper is available at the International Journal of Toxicology and Risk Assessment.
