Review of the U.S. Navy's exposure standard for manufactured vitreous fibers /
Manufactured vitreous fibers (MVF), also known as synthetic vitreous fibers, are generally considered to be less hazardous than asbestos to human health. They are used in a variety of thermal- and acoustical-insulation applications, frequently as an asbestos substitute or as a filtration medium. The...

| 520 | |a Manufactured vitreous fibers (MVF), also known as synthetic vitreous fibers, are generally considered to be less hazardous than asbestos to human health. They are used in a variety of thermal- and acoustical-insulation applications, frequently as an asbestos substitute or as a filtration medium. The Navy uses MVF in a number of shipboard and onshore applications. To protect Navy personnel from potentially harmful exposures to MVF, the U.S. Navy Environmental Health Center (NEHC) developed occupational exposure standards. In 1997, the National Research Council (NRC) was asked to conduct an independent review of the Navy's toxicological assessment of MVF and to evaluate the scientific validity of its exposure standard of 2 fibers per cubic centimeter of air (f/cm3). The Subcommittee on Manufactured Vitreous Fibers, a multidisciplinary group of experts, to determine whether all relevant toxicological and epidemiological data were appropriately considered in developing the exposure standard; and to examine the uncertainty, variability, and quality of data and the appropriateness of assumptions used in the derivation of the exposure standard. The subcommittee was also asked to identify deficiencies in the MVF database and, where appropriate, to make recommendations for future research and data development. | ||
