The presence of erionite in North American geologies and the estimated mesothelioma potency by region

CONCLUSION: The model predicted mesothelioma potency of Turkish erionite (4.53) falls in this same range of potencies as erionite found in North America. Although it can vary by region, a reasonable ratio of average mesothelioma potency based on this model is 3,000:500:100:1 comparing North American erionite, crocidolite, amosite, and chrysotile (from most potent to least potent).PMID:38583132 | DOI:10.1080/08958378.2024.2322496
