| Abstract | This study reports changes in the frequency of detection of various asbestos fiber types between 1982 and 2005. Crocidolite is increasingly detected in U.S. mesothelioma patients. The percentage of crocidolite fibers detected in lung tissue has risen from 4 to 10%, and the percentage of cases in which crocidolite was detected increased from 19 to 37%. Meanwhile, the frequency of detection of amosite and chrysotile has decreased. The authors performed a detailed analysis of cases in which crocidolite was identified in the absence of amosite. Most of such cases were identified in recent years, a finding of concern since crocidolite is considered the most potent fiber type with respect to the pathogenesis of mesothelioma. |

National Digital Library of India (NDLI) is a virtual repository of learning resources which is not just a repository with search/browse facilities but provides a host of services for the learner community. It is sponsored and mentored by Ministry of Education, Government of India, through its National Mission on Education through Information and Communication Technology (NMEICT). Filtered and federated searching is employed to facilitate focused searching so that learners can find the right resource with least effort and in minimum time. NDLI provides user group-specific services such as Examination Preparatory for School and College students and job aspirants. Services for Researchers and general learners are also provided. NDLI is designed to hold content of any language and provides interface support for 10 most widely used Indian languages. It is built to provide support for all academic levels including researchers and life-long learners, all disciplines, all popular forms of access devices and differently-abled learners. It is designed to enable people to learn and prepare from best practices from all over the world and to facilitate researchers to perform inter-linked exploration from multiple sources. It is developed, operated and maintained from Indian Institute of Technology Kharagpur.
