Annotation Thirty papers focus on recent advances in research on measurement methods for asbestos in bulk building materials, as well as ambient, indoor, and work place air, water, and settled dust. The papers include discussions of measurement methods, monitoring strategies, data interpretation, and quality assurance for asbestos measurements. It was the intent of the organizers of the July 1997 conference from which these papers stem to bring the disciplines of analytical chemistry together with investigators who are assessing exposure to asbestos in the environment.
