Meiji Asbestos Bulk Fiber Identification Microscopes

Asbestos bulk fiber identification utilizes polarized light microscopy for analysis. Meiji asbestos bulk fiber identification microscopes meet the NIOSH 9002 standards for bulk asbestos fiber identification.

Methodology for polarized light microscopy analysis: NIOSH 9002


This method is useful for the qualitative identification of asbestos and the semi-quantative determination of asbestos in bulk samples. Polarized light microscopy measures the percentage of asbestos as perceived by the analyst in comparison to the standard projections, photographs or experience. The quality of the results are dependent upon the skill and judgement of the operator.
