title: Occupational dust exposures in West Texas cotton gins.
abstract: Total and elutriated dust concentrations were measured by four methods for typical ginning situations. Total and elutriated levels were 0.73 and 0.47 and 0.59 and 0.26 mg/m3 per bale/hr by the gin stands and bale press, respectively. Limited data show the corresponding mass media diameters are 9.2-14.8 and 9.6-18.5 micrometer.
