Sampling blanks were collected and submitted with each group of samples analyzed. Air sample analysis was according to NIOSH Analytical Method 7400 with results reported as fibers per cubic centimeter (f/cc). Laboratory Analysis performed by an ELAP approved and NIOSH PAT proficient laboratory. Laboratory analysis indicated airborne levels below the current recommended "Clearance Air Criteria" of 0.01 fibers per cubic centimeter (f/cc) of air according to Phase Contrast Microscopy (PCM).
