title: Problems of experimental tumourigenesis by fibrous dusts, especially by asbestos (with regard to stanton's hypothesis).
abstract: Asbestos dust has got a very great importance because cancerogenicity is imputed into it in occupational and, perhaps, in common environmental conditions too. The short review deals with general problems in experimenting with fibrous dusts, especially the modes of its application, the transferability of results to human pathology and the cause and pathway of cancerisation by fibres and crystals.
