Data that have been gathered over the past eight years indicate that a method involving Transmission Electron Microscopy (TEM) is the most appropriate of the microscopic methods used to detect and identify asbestos fibers in drinking water. The authors discuss the following: sample collection; sample preparation; identification of fibers; fiber counting; laboratory facilities and equipment necessary for analyzing asbestos fibers; and possible sources of error in the analysis. Includes 15 references, tables, figures.
