If material on the EPA's
Sample
List of Suspect Asbestos-Containing Materials
was manufactured with asbestos in the past, it is best to assume that it contains
asbestos, unless testing, the date of manufacture, the label, or the manufacturer
verifies that it does not. A material may be presumed to be asbestos and treated as
though it contained asbestos without being tested or surveyed.
Asbestos testing has to do with evaluating the presence of harmful asbestos
fibers in a person, product or structure. Asbestos testing can identify whether
or not present levels of asbestos pose a health threat to human health.
Taking an asbestos sample
Only trained, certified people should handle or remove asbestos-containing materials.
Exposure to asbestos
If a person has been exposed to harmful levels of asbestos in the last fifty years,
asbestos testing can help determine if they are at risk for developing serious asbestos
related diseases. Chest x-rays and lung functioning tests can be performed by medical
professionals in asbestos testing.
