Asbestos is considered by most authorities to be one of the major occupational health and safety problems in the world today. Although it is no longer used in newly constructed buildings, most old buildings contain large quantities of asbestos. The first problem a building owner faces today is to determine whether he has a potential hazard; in other words, whether there are asbestos- containing materials within his building. This involves bulk sample analysis by Polarized Light Microscopy (PLM) on insulation and other building materials from all likely sources. Based on these results, decisions can be made regarding sealing of the asbestos source to prevent contamination of the building air or removal of the asbestos. If the choice is removal, air filter samples and the monitoring of those filters using Phase Contrast Microscopy (PCM) and Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) is required at this stage.
