New Study Examines the Hazards of Silicosis
November 22, 2022Scientific Reports released a new silicosis study that examines dust emissions from machined engineered stones to understand the hazard for accelerated silicosis. The study was born from the recent upsurge in accelerated silicosis cases among those working in the stonemason industry.
Researchers simulated real-time dust exposure scenarios by dry machining engineered stones in controlled...
