One question that has puzzled many researches is whether or not there is a definitive threshold regarding levels of asbestos exposure and disease development. One interesting study that explores this issue is called, Asbestos - the TLV approach - Ann N Y Acad Sci. 1976;271:152-69. by Nicholson WJ. Here is an excerpt: Abstract - A review of the control of carcinogenic exposures using the TLV approach presents a prospect of limited effectiveness. With asbestos, as with any carcinogen, no threshold is known below which no health effect may be manifest. At best, we have only limited dose-response information at levels much above those of practical concern. In the case of asbestos, current exposures can only be described crudely at any level of exposure, and health effects are only known for past high, but ill-defined, exposures. Limited information exists on the effects of synergistic interactions with other materials. The current U.S. TLV, based on data concerned with occurrence of asbestosis, has not been evaluated with regard to possible effectiveness in the prevention of asbestos cancer. Yet cancer is the heart of the asbestos-hazard problem. Finally, enforcement of the existing...more
