Follow on Google News | Firefighters Exposed to Asbestos in their own Fire HouseEMSL Analytical, the nation’s leading asbestos testing laboratory, has been performing asbestos analysis since 1981
Earlier this month tests results indicated thatLackawanna’ Asbestos is a mineral fiber that was frequently used in a wide range of manufactured goods, including building construction materials, until the 1990s. Asbestos poses a health risk when it is disturbed, damaged, or worn down in some way, because its microscopic fibers may be released into the air and inhaled into the lungs. Exposure to these fibers can lead to lung cancer, mesothelioma, and asbestosis—all of which can take years to show symptoms. “Asbestos exposure is very serious, and it is a tragedy that those who sacrifice so much already have yet another burden to bear,” states Ed Cahill, EMSL’s National Director of Asbestos at EMSL Analytical, Inc. “Our company helps clients monitor the asbestos abatement process by offering the most advanced analysis of their samples, including those from the air, settled dust, building materials, vermiculite, water, soil, and rock.” For more information on EMSL’s testing services, please contact EMSL at (800) 220-3675, visit www.EMSL.com, or email info@EMSL.com.
