MR. BROWNSON: We're back continuing your deposition in the case of Conwed versus Union Carbide. And this is a continuation of the prior deposition in this case.
I want to start with a few preliminary matters that hopefully we can dispense quickly. The issue of the documents we requested at the last deposition. I understand you made a search for and have been able to produce some things and maybe not some other things.
17 What I would like to do is ask you what you
18 looked for, what you produced and what- you 19 didn't produce. And maybe the easiest way
20 is for me to go through my list of things.
21 unless you think it might be easier for you
22 to explain to us what you did. I'll take
23 suggestions from you.
24 MR. WILL: Do you have the list we
. 25
provided you? That would probably --

2 Q. And it's entitled "Unpublished
3 Materials & Correspondence Pertaining to Calidria
4 Reviewed for Conwed Versus UCC by Dr. E.B. Ilgren
5 as of 10 November '94."
6 A. That's correct.
7 Q. And I guess can we take that to mean
8 what it says, these are things you have reviewed
9 in connection with this case as of a week ago?
10 A. As- stated, yes.
11 Q. Have you reviewed anything else since
12 November 10 that pertains to this case or any
13 opinions you intend to give in this case?
14 A. Off the top of my head, no. But
15 there may be other things that just don't spring
16 to my mind.
17 Q. If there were other things, would i
18 those be in the nature of published things or
19 manuscripts as opposed to specific Conwed
20 documents?
21
. A.
I believe so, though I'm not 100
22 percent sure.

6 MR. BROWNSON: Just to complete that
7 point, you've seen portions of James '
8 Ministo's deposition in his Ministo versus

2 MR. BROWNSON: What files?
3 MR. WILL: His files.
4 A. You asked us to bring --
5 Q. I asked you to bring the records you
6 reviewed.
7 A. That's it.
8 Q. Did those files contain anything
9 other than records you reviewed? Do they contain
10 letters or reports that you generated?
11 A. There are a few annotated notes here
12 about different aspects of the case, but there are
13 no individual reports here.
14 MR. WILL: I think what they tend to
15 be are just excerpts from the records, just
16 put in one place.
17 Q. For instance I'm looking at your file
18 on Stanley Fleisch. The file contains some
19 medical records, a letter from the Mayo Clinic, a
20 letter to myself. Dr. Mark Wick, University of
21 Minnesota from the Duluth Clinic to Mr. Clark's
22 lawyers. Some treatment record from the Duluth
23 Clinic with history and that sort of thing. And a
24 pathology report from a pathologist from the
25 Duluth clinic. In addition to those records, it

contains some notes which looks like things that
you have generated. I'll just show those to you
and ask you, first of all, are these things that
you generated or were those -
A. I generated it.
Q. I take it you have notea of that type
that you generated in each of these six files?
A. I've got them here on Broeffle. This
is an empty folder. I don't think I did it every
single case. There's none in Maki. Let's see.
None on Manisto. I don't see any here on Roseth.
Q. Now for the record just so we can
identify, you got files which you produced here
today. One on Mr. Fleisch, one on Roseth, one on
Ministo, one on Maki and one on Broeffle. And
then you say you have one on Mr. Bodway but you
don't have it here today?
A. I don't believe so.
Q. Now have you reviewedanything else
with respect to the medical condition or diagnosis
of these Conwed mesothelioma cases.
A. Like what?
Q. Other than what's here in your file.
A. Like slides or anything like that?

2 portion of his deposition. Have you opened a file
3 on that?
4 A. I don't think so, not yet.
5 Q. Do you plan to do that?
6 A. Sure, when I get information.
7 Q. Now you've told us that :in your view,
8 one or two or more of these six putative
9 mesothelioma cases among Conwed workers raised
10 questions in your mind, but you can't recall
11 exactly which ones as to the diagnosis?
12 A. That's right.
13 Q. Were there any among of those group
14 of six which in your mind were unquestionably
15 mesothelioma that you did not have questions on?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. Do you remember which one those were?
18 *
A. I don't remember which ones they
19 were, but there were certainly cases that I think
20 one would accept as confirmed mesothelioma.
21 Q. As you sit here today, do you
22 remember how many there were?
23 A. No.
24 Q. If we looked at your five files here,
25 could you tell from looking at those which ones

UCAREF00009188
1
Ilgren
361
2 you would accept as confirmed diagnoses of
3 mesothelioma?
-_
4 A. I haven't reviewed them in detail in
5 some time. I would have to go through them again
6 and make some more notes.
7 Q. Let me ask you this. I note that
8 your files contain -- I didn't look at all of
9 them, some of them contain reports from Mark Wick,
10 a pathologist from St. Louis?
'
11
A. Yes.
`
12 Q. Are you aware that Dr. Wick was a
13 pathologist that we retained on behalf of Conwed
14 to review these cases?
15 A. Yes.
16 Q. With respect to these six cases,
17 would you be in agreement with Dr. Wick, that is
18 in cases where he says the diagnoses of
19 mesothelioma are confirmed? Are those the
20 cases -
21 MR. WILL: Unless he takes the time
22 to review these records, I don't think
23 that's an appropriate question.
24 MR. BROWNSON: Let me rephrase it.
25 Q. Was it the report of Dr. Wick that

Ilgren
.
3 62
2 you relied on in making the statement that some of
3 these cases were uncontested -- not Union Carbide.
f 4 contested but confirmed mesothelioma, in your
J 5 view? 6 A. It was more than his report. It was
] 7 certainly a contributing factor. There were a lot
J 8 of different things. I would like to be able to 9 go in detail if we're going to talk about them,
1 10 just to refresh my memory. 3 11 Q. Can you do that here today during the
12 course of this deposition or is that something
13 that would take longer?
i 14 A. It would take longer. ' 15 Q. But suffice it to say as we sit here
.3 16 today in this deposition on November 18, there are
] 17 certain of the six cases that you accept as 18 confirmed mesothelioma diagnoses?
3 19 A. It's my recollection that's the case.
1 20 Q. And do you recall if there was more
21 than one of the cases where that is true?
22 A. I believe so.
23 Q. Do you recall if it's more than two? 24 A. Perhaps. I don't recall exactly.
25 Q. All right. Now, in addition to

2 facilities where they may have had amphibole
3 exposure. At least one, I think it was Ministo,
4 discussed how he worked with amosite under very
5 dusty conditions.
6 Q. Is it your opinion. Dr. Ilgren, that
7 chrysotile asbestos has nothing to do with the
8 mesothelioma in these six cases?
9 MR. WILL: In general.
10 Q. In general at this point?
-
11 A. No, I don't believe it did.
12
Q. No, you don't believe it did - t
13 restate your answer.
14 A. I don't believe chrysotile
15 contributed to the development of any of these
16 mesotheliomas.
17 Q. Let me ask you some questions about
18 that. What do you base that statement upon, what
19 facts?
20 A. My sense is that virtually all of the
21 chrysotile is Union Carbide chrysotile and Union
22 Carbide calidria.
23 Q. It's your view that
24 chrysotile-exposed workers who develop
25 mesothelioma get that disease from something else

UCAREF00009191

Ilgren
. ' ` ' 3.65
. '
2 other than chrysotile?
3 A. That's correct.
4 Q When you looked at the six cases of 5 Conwed workers, what you were doing was looking to
6 see if they had any exposure to amphibole- type of
7 asbestos?
8 A. That's correct.
9 Q. Do you believe that amosite can cause
10 malignant mesothelioma?
11 A. I do.
12 Q. Do you believe that any of the 13 mesotheliomas among these these six Conwed workers
14 were exposed to amosite asbestos?
15 A. Conceivable.
16 Q. Do you have any firm opinion on that
17 one way or the other?
18
A. Probably.
19 Q. What is that opinion?
20 A. Probably.
21
' Q.
Probably that some were or probably
22 that all were or what?
23 A. Certainly some were.
24 Q. Do you know which ones? 25 A. No.
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220
UCAREF00009192

Ilgren
366
2 Q. Now do you believe that some of these
3 mesotheliomas among Conwed workers were caused to--
4 exposure to crocidolite asbestos?
5 A. I do.
6 Q. What is the factual basis for that
7 opinion?
8 A. To the best of my recollection, I
9 would have to go back and read the details of the
10 case. Both Mr. Ministo and Mr. Bergstrom worked
11 under very dusty conditions with crocidolite in
12 the R&D facility for, I think it was several
13 years, at least a couple of years, and based on my
14 appreciation of the types of levels and exposures
15 and settings in which people who use crocidolite
16 develop these mesotheliomas, I would say their
17 mesotheliomas were due to the crocidolite they
18 used.
19 Q. Is it your view there has never been
20 a reported case in this country of a malignant
21 mesothelioma caused by exposure to chrysotile
22 asbestos only, free of amphibole?
23 A. Could you read it back.
24 (Question read)
25 A. People have claimed to report them in
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220
UCAREF00009193
1
Ilgren
367
2 the country. I don't necessary accept they: have
3 proven that they're because of chrysotile alone-.
4 Q. Whatever case reports there may be
5 of malignant mesothelioma is due to chrysotile
6 asbestos, it's your view that they were not -
7 it's your view they were caused by something else?
8 A. I would like to look at the
9 individual papers, that's my opinion. In that
10 question, were you referring to chrysotile free of
11 amphibole?
12 Q. By chrysotile, I mean pure
13 chrysotile.
14 A. All right.
15 Q. I assume that opinion means that in
16 your view, calidria brand asbestos, which we're
17 talking about in this case, is incapable of
18 causing malignant mesothelioma?
19 A. That's correct.
20 Q. Do you know why if that's true. Union
21 Carbide has settled the mesothelioma cases arising
22 on the Conwed workers?
23 MR. WILL: Don't answer that
24 question. It's absolutely not an
25 appropriate question under Rule 408.

2 MR. BROWNSON: So you're instructing
3 him not to answer?

4 MR. WILL: Yes.
5 Q. I asked you a few questions in this
6 regard last time. Let me just finish the point
7 here.
-
8 Have you done work on behalf of Union
9 Carbide in any personal injury cases outside of
10 the Conwed workers which involve exposure or
11 alleged exposure to Calidria asbestos?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. In particular I want to focus on
14 mesothelioma cases. Have any of those involved
15 mesothelioma?
16 A. Not that I recall.
17 Q. Do you know if any of them involved
18 any other cancer, lung cancers?
19 MR. GERSON: Or esophageal?
20 A. Esophageal.
21 Q. How many cases were there, was that
22 one case or more than one?
23 A. How many esophageal cases, I think
24 one.

7 Q. Which of those three cases was the 8 esophageal cancer?
9 A. I don't recall right off the top of
10 my head.
11 Q. Were the other two asbestosis or some 12 other pulmonary problem?
13 A. I believe one was asbestosis.
14 Q. Do you recall what the third was? 15 A. No.
16 Q. Do you know whether in any of those
17 three cases , there was a lung tissue fibre burden
18 analysis done?
.
19 A. No.
20 Q. By that, do you mean you don't know 21 or it wasn' t done?
22 A. I don't know. The cases settled very
23 quickly, I did very little work on it.
24 Q. Do you recall whether you ever saw 25 any lung tissue fibre burden analyses in any of

2 those cases?
3 A. I don't remember. I don't recall.
4 Q. Just to finish up on these three
5 cases, do you remember where those cases were
6 venued, in what court?
7 A. Let's see, at least one was in Texas
8 and the other two, I don't recall.
9 Q. And do you remember what the exposure
10 to Calidria asbestos was in that Texas case?
11 A. I don't recall.
12 Q. Other than those three cases, have
13 you ever done any work on behalf of Union Carbide
14 or on your own reviewing or looking in any way at
15 groups of workers exposed to Calidria asbestos
16 other than the Conwed workers or other than the
17 people out at King City?
18 MR. GOLDMAN: Other than the three
19 cases we talked about?

22 groups of exposed workers.

2 A. It'a a bit vague. Give me an
3 example.
4 Q. For example. Union Carbide sold
5 Calidria asbestos over the years to many different
6 customers who used it in many different settings,
7 whether in plants or factories or oil fields or
8 different things. And what I'm wondering, you've
9 reviewed or looked at these three individual cases
10 you told us about.
11
A.
Right.
`
12 Q. In addition you've done some work
13 with respect to the Conwed workers?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And in addition to that, I know that
16 you've at least looked at in some respects at
17 information dealing with the workers out at the
18 line at King City?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. What this question is,are there
21 other workers anyplace exposed to Calidria
22 asbestos that you reviewed or looked at? Are
23 there any other workers?
24 A. No.
25 Q. Are you awareof any sort of

2 epidemiological study done by anyone dealing with
3 any other group of Calidria-asbestos-exposed
4 workers other than King City, Conwed?
5 A. Not that I can remember.
6 Q. I'm not just talking about published
7 work. I think you work -- there is no
8 epidemiological work with Calidria-.exposed
9 workers. My question went to unpublished work
10 that you may have heard of or seen.
11 A. Nothing comes immediately to mind.
12 Q. Now let's go back to the six Conwed
13 workers.
14 A. Could you ask the question again.
15 Q. I'll have the record read back.
16 (Record-read) 17 A. I don't think so.
18 Q. I wanted to go back to the six Conwed
19 mesothelioma cases you reviewed. You've told us 20 that one of the purposes of your reviews - - of 21 your review of those six cases was to look at the
22 diagnosis and another purpose was to try to
23 make -- establish some opinion as to the causation 24 of those mesothelioma. Did you review them for
25 any other purpose? Was there any question that

2 you answered as a result of your review?
3 A. Not that I'm aware.
4 Q. With respect to possible crocidolite
5 exposure on those six workers, I understand you
6 identified the use of some crocidolite in the
7 research and development setting with respect to
8 Mr. Manisto and Fred Bergstrom, is that correct?
9 A. That's correct.
10 Q. Other than the crocidolite, are you
11 aware of any other crocidolite or potential
12 crocidolite exposure among the Conwed cases that
13 you've reviewed?
14 A. There is crocidolite marked in at
15 least five different places within the plant.
16 There was piping or some component in the plant,
17 so I really couldn't exclude some additional
18 potential exposure. The people came up who tore
19 up the pipe and one of these were were near by.
20 Q. Do you have any specific information
21 in that record from crocidolite exposure from pipe
22 covering?
23 A. Have I seen anything that says
24 crocidolite in pipe covering in Conwed plant?
25 Q. Yes.

2 A. Yes.
3 Q. What have you seen in that regard?
4 A. How do w& call -- USG sample survey? 5 Q. That's USG, you mean U.S. Gypsum?
6 A. Yes.
7 Q. These are asbestos -- an asbestos
8 survey that USG has conducted after they purchased 8
9 the plant from Conwed, is that what you're talking
10 about?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. That indicates that some samples of
13 pipe covering contained crocidolite asbestos?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And theinformation that you saw -
16 first of all, did you actually see a survey or did
17 you read in a deposition about this?
18 A. I sawfour large -- I guessabout
19 four foot by two foot plans, detailed plans of the
20 plant. And then a smaller plan of the plant. And
21 then a five or six-page document which listed
22 about 200 sites. So for example in the left-hand
23 column there, there was a number running from -
24 the numbers ran from 1 to 200. In, say, I don't
25 remember exactly, but the next column, there

2 was -- the location from which the sample was
3 taken, and then the next column was the type of
4 asbestos found, either chrysotile, crocidolite or
5 amosite. There were about -- they went from, say,
6 1 to 132, consecutively, and then for some reason
7 there were five or six missing. Then it went for
8 another ten and then there were five or six
9 missing. The number was virtually intact but
10 there were some things missing and there were
11 about 30 records where they didn't actually say
12 .crocidolite or amosite, it said positive or
13 negative.
14 Q. Do you know what the date of the
15 survey was?
16 A. I don't recall.
17 Q. Was there any information that you
18 saw, either on the survey or anywhere else, which
19 indicated when those materials were installed in
20 the plant?
21 A. When they were installed?
22 Q. Right.
23 A. I don't recall.

2 that stated whether or not any of these six
3 mesothelioma cases we've been talking about worked
4 with pipes or pipe covering or had'any exposure to
5 those particular products that you mentioned?
6 A. Could you ask the first part of the
7 question again.

9 A. Are you asking to my recollection if
10 any of these guys worked with pipe covering?

17 regard be retained in the files we looked at
18 earlier and are going to have copied here?
19 A. I believe so.
20 Q. Really what I'm getting at, I'm
21 trying to find the sources of your information
22 with respect to that question whether any of these
23 six mesothelioma cases would have had exposure to
24 crocidolite and pipe covering. You told us you
25 got six case files -- five, of them here other than

2 Mr.Bodway.
Then you told us you have this USG
3 survey. Is there any other data or information
4 that you've seen -
5 A. Let's look at the list for a second.
6 MR. WILL: You're talking about the
7 exposure of the individuals?
8 MR. BROWNSON: Right.
9 A. Mr. Bergstrom, I've looked at the
10 three documents which are Bergstrom something.
11 They make reference, I think in at least two
12 documents, to the use of crocidolite.
13 Q. Let's stop there. With respect to
14 whether Mr. Bergstrom was exposed to crocidolite,
15 you have seen three documents. Are those the
16 three which are listed on the first page of
17 Exhibit 13 under Bergstrom?
18 A. Right.
19 Q. I guess maybe my question wasn't
20 clear, maybe it was. What I am wondering is, have
21 you seen any other.information concerning exposure
22 to pipe covering among these six cases?
23 A. I don't recall. I may have, I may
24 not have.

2 their depositions, but based on your line
3 of questioning, maybe I should do that . He-
4 did read Manisto, excerpts from that.
5 Q. Now, do you have a copy of this USG
6 survey that you were talking about?
7 A. Yes.
:
8 Q. And would your copy be the copy that
9 you relied on for the statements you made here
10 today for the USG survey?
11 A. Yes.

12 MR. BROWNSON: Can we get a copy of
13 that?
14 MR. WILL: I think you have a copy
15 of that.
16 MR. BROWNSON: I would like to
17 see -- he said there were some pages
18 missing.
19 MR. WILL: There aren't pages
20 missing. If you look on the sample survey,
21 it's missing numbers, not pages. They went
22 around the plant and took samples out of 23 each of the pipes and they put a number on
24 them. The survey that he has lists samples
25 1 through 185. But there are some numbers

5 Q. I'm just wondering, Mike Goldman '
6 asked, is that survey listed on your Exhibit 13?
7 A. I don't think so.
8 Q. It's not something we requested
9 earlier. Just to follow-up. Mr. Will advises
10 this is something you've seen in the last week?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. And it came from Mr. Will? 13 A. Yes.

17 Q. So if we wanted to see the specific 18 survey that you reviewed, you still have that
19 copy?
20 A. I do.
21 Q. Now, have you been asked by Mr. Will
22 or anybody else on behalf of Union Carbide to
23 attempt to render any opinions in this case

25 defendants in this lawsuit?

7 to render any opinions at the present time with
8 respect to those third-party defendants, do you
9 have any opinions as to whether any of those
10 third-party defendants, based upon the material
11 you have seen, have anything to do with any of
12 these six mesothelioma cases?
13 A. No.
14 Q. By that, youmean you have no
15 opinion?
16 A. I haven't reviewed any.
17 Q. Okay. Let's go back to Exhibit 13.

20 Q. When we broke, we were about to look
21 at Plaintiff's Exhibit 13, which is your list of
22 documents requested at the last deposition.

5 A. Nothing comes to mind.
6 Q. Have you reviewed any of the
7 deposition exhibits or documents from Dr. Kagan's
8 deposition taken earlier this week?
9 A. No, I haven't.
10 Q. Let's take a look atExhibit 13.
11 What I want to do is go through the request that
12 we had made for documents and see if I understand
13 where these things fall on the list.
14 A. All right.
15 Q. And the first thing I want to look
16 at, we had documents he maintained the in office
17 at Bryn Mawr. There were some specific things.
18 The first is the medical summaries of the six
19 Conwed workers, and I've seen five and you have
20 number six of Mr. Bodway which you'll provide to
21 us.

panicles analyzed were greater than 10 pin in length and had a mean diameter of 0.42 iim. In the present study using aerosolized samples drawn directly upon Nucleopore filters and subsequently gold coated, it was found that 34.0% of the combined fibers and fiber clusters or 28.1% of all panicles (fibers, fiber clusters, and nonfibrous panicles) in the Coalinga preparation were greater than 10 nm. in length and had a mean diameter of 2.92 /im. In a subsequent study by Siegrist and Wylie (1980), the Coalinga preparation (referred to as short-range chrysotile) was characterized for panicle size distribution by both transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The samples were prepared by hand swirling in distilled water and dishwashing liquid (for SEM analysis) and-by ultrasonification in water for 10 min (for TEM analysis). The results demonstrated that by both SEM and TEM more than 90-93% of the panicles were less than 10 /am in length and more than 93% of the panicles were less than 1 pm in diameter. In our study using aerosolized samples 71.9% of the total number of panicles were less than 10 pm in length and 68% of the total number of particles were less than 1 pm in diameter.

3 A. Possibly.
4 Q. And are there any particular cases
5 that you can recall where -- that you have
6 discussed with Dr. Kevin Brown where the issue
7 was, was this a pure chrysotile mesothelioma or
8 was it something else?
9 A. X don't recall specific things.
10 Q. Just backing up a minute, do you know
11 if that was a question in that esophageal cancer
12 case you mentioned earlier with Union Carbide, the
13 question being whether there was exposure to
14 something other than Calidria, another kind of
15 asbestos, other than Calidria?
16 A. I don't remember the case.
17 Q. Whether there was a question or not,
18 you just don't recall?
19 A. I don't remember.
20 Q. Do you maintain any file with respect
21 to that case?
22 A. I believe so. 23 Q. And do you maintain any file with
24 respect to those other two cases you worked on
25 that dealt with Calidria exposure?

7 tissue or tissue slides in that esophageal cancer
8 case?
9 A. I don't believe so.
10 Q. Do you know if going back to Exhibit
11 13 in the correspondence with Dr. Kevin Brown, do
12 you know if that correspondence dealt in any way
13 with the question of -- or any questions dealing
14 with the Yeager and Langer paper about the
15 exposure or the test performed with macrophages?
16 A. I don't recall, it's possible. 17 Q. And the reason I bring that up, we'll
18 get to it in a minute. One of the documents was a 19 critique of that paper by Dr. Addison. Do you
20 recall that?
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. Are you aware of any similar 23 critiquing with respect to that paper done - -
24 which would be reflected in your correspondence

13 particular paper, the Yeager and Langer paper
14 other than the one you provided to us by Dr.

16 A. No.
17 Q. The next thing we requestedwas the
18 category of documents, a file maintained in Bryn

Is there also unpublished work? 10 A. I assume. 11 Q. Is there any that you have seen? 12 A. No, sir. 13 Q. So what you have seen is his published 14 work concerning modeling ofchiysotile 15 degradation or dissolution? 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. Do you recall ofihand which chiysotile 18 he used? First ofall, was it all Canadian? 19 A. I don't recall whether it was Canadian 20 or Rhodesian. I don't recall 21 Q. That's kind ofa small point, but 22 let's put it this way, do you know if he has 23 done -- when I earlier asked you whether he had 24 done such modeling with respect to Coalinga, I 25 wasn't limiting myself to Union Carbide Coalinga, 0072 1 Ilgren 2 I was limiting myself to the deposit 3 A. Yeah, sure. Yes. 4 Q. So basically if I can summarize the 5 request you have made of Rimstidt, it's that you 6 would like him to model the dissolution or 7 degradation of Coalinga type chiysotile and 8 compare it with other types that he has modeled? 9 A. Yes, sir. 10 Q. Is that a request that you have made 11 ofUnion Carbide, to do that work? 12 A. Not yet 13 Q. Is that a request that you intend to 14 make? 15 A. Yes, sir. 16 Q. Let me ask you the same question. Do 17 you have any estimate of how long that work would 18 take, ifyou get the go-ahead to do it? 19 A. No, sir. 20 Q. Have we now covered ail of the 21 original topic, laboratory work that you have 22 requested with respect to Coalinga asbestos7 23 Have we now covered it all? 24 A. Off the top of my head, yes. 25 Q.

7 have.
8 Q. So with respect to the. category of
9 Conwed hygiene data, what you have is three
10 things, the in-test report, the Union Carbide air
11 testing, and then this portion of this report from
12 Dr. Gaffney?
13 A. I believe so.
14 Q. Is there anything else that you have
15 considered in your mind to be high general testing
16 data or exposure-type data from Conwed?
17 A. Not to my knowledge.

19 Trevor, he didn't provide because we have it. You
20 reviewed certain certain interrogatory answers

9 should get it ourselves?

3 take the position that Dr. Elgren took some,
4 time and expense to get these. If he just

6 that time and expense without paying for
7 it.

9 ask him, he can tell you how to get them
10 yourself; They're available.

12 connection with this case and you're taking
13 the position that you won't turn them over.
14 MR. WILL: I'm not saying we won't
15 them turn over. We're not going to give
16 you the benefit of the cost that he
17 incurred.

19 not that's -- let me ask some questions

2 cost. And the first one is this Butler PhD- thesis
3 from the University of Cardiff, Wales in Britain.
4 A. That's right.
5 Q. Is that something that you relied on
6 in any way for any of your opinions in this case?
7 A. I would have gotten the document,
8 yes .
9
Q..
Do you know if any of the serpentine
10 rocks and minerals discussed in that PhD thesis
11 came from California?
12 A. They were Coalinga samples mentioned.
13 Q. Do you know if they were specified as
14 coming from the Union Carbide mine or just
15 Coalinga samples?
16 A. I just can't recall, I'm not sure.
17 Q. For the record, I think we're
18 entitled to get this stuff. But after stating
19 that, what expense would you view as reasonable to
20 compensate Dr. Ilgren for his trouble?
21 MR. WILL: Can you give me two
22 minutes to go talk with the doctor for a
23 second about this?

2 of things you got and are responsive but you don't
3 want to produce because of this cost. Did you
4 rely on any of those nine reports in reaching any
5 conclusions or opinions which pertaining to this
6 case?
.
7 A. I have to recheck it. I believe so,
8 but I have to recheck the details.
9 Q. The final thing is thePinkerton
10 thesis in 1982. Is that something you relied on
11 in any way for opinions and conclusions on this
12 case?
13 A. Yes.
14 Q. And I just had a discussion with
15 Trevor Will in the hallway and agreed at the end
16 of the deposition we'll discuss with him making a
17 request for this stuff, but we still do request
18 i't. We'll discuss what arrangements can be made,
19 if any, to get that.
20 Q. Let me ask you this. In your
21 published book, Mesothelioma of Animals, that we
22 were talking at the last session of the
23 deposition?
24 A. Right.
25 Q. Do you compile or list any of the

2 And again, are those things you looked for and
3 listed on Exhibit 13?
4 A. Right.
5
Q. . All right.
#
6 A. The only thing I couldn'tfind was
7 this J. Haart, Jean Haart. I was mistaken, I
8 didn't have it, I thought I had it.. But I didn't
9 Q. What's listed as Haart, J., which is
10 Jean Haart?
11 A. Yes .
12 Q. Correspondence?
13 A. Yes.
14 Q. You couldn't find that? IS A. Correct.
16 Q. And on my letter I talked about 17 documents or correspondence from. Dr. Haart, is
18 that the same person?
19 A. I think that's the same person.
20 Q. Now let me ask you this question. 21 With respect to these published and unpublished
22 documents or reports concerning - - that we
23 requested at the deposition, did. you limit your
24 review to those which specifically deal with
25 Calidria asbestos?
.

2 A. I think there are some others here in
3 fact that deal with JM Coalinga, so.the answer is
4 no.
5 Q. Earlier you had made the distinction
6 between Coalinga and the other Coalinga fibers,
7 and I'm wondering if your review-here was reviewed
8 to just Coalinga or was a broad category of -
9 A. I would say there are a number where
10 I couldn't categorize, like it was a Union Carbide
11 product or something else.
'
12 Q. Then the other thing we listed was
13 NAAC, which is an acronym, letters to Conwed, is
14 that shown on Exhibit 13?
15 A. It's third from the bottom, page 1,
16 Bergstrom, 21, October 1960, letter from Algerd E.
17 Jerome.
18 Q. Next is correspondence from NIOSH,
19 another acronym of Dr. -- Drs. Jean Haart and
20 Charles Lorberau. I think it's NIOSH. I did see
21 some documents in that regard. So you have
22 produced some documents. Are there any of those
23 documents that you found but did not produce?
24 A. No, not to my knowledge.
25 Q. The other things were documents that
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220
UCAREF00009221

Ilgren
399
2 are not on file at Bryn Mawr. The first thing is
3 the Oxford calendar. Were you able the find that?
4 A. Yes.
5 Q. -One of the things you produced, X
6 noticed, there was some photocopy pages from
7 something about -- was it green collegiate Oxford?
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. What was that?
10 A. That's the Oxford calendar.
11 Q. Then the final thing was theinterim
12 or final report on this Shubik study on the health
13 and safety executive interim report, Oxford
14 calendar listing of Professor P. Shubik.
15 Q. Was that something that was provided
16 to us?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. Was that something that was provided
19 to us?
20 A. Yes. 21 MR. GERSON: Now I want to look at a
22 few of these documents in a little more 23 detail. The first thing I got, why don't
24 we mark this as Exhibit 14. 25 (Whereupon, letter dated February

4 Q. Exhibit 14 is one of the documents
5 you produced after your last deposition. This is
6 a letter to you from -John Addison.
7 A. Right.
1
8 Q. What's the date?
9 A.. 16 February, 1994.
10 Q. I'm looking at the first page, which
11 is the message to you from Dr. Addison, and he
12 makes reference to transcript discussions. What
13 transcript are we discussing here?
14 A. A portion of Art Danger's deposition.
15 Q. Do you know -- was Dr. Art Langer's
16 entire deposition sent to Dr. Addison or were some
17 portions sent to Dr. Addison?
18 A. A portion.
19 Q. What portion was sent to -
20 A. It could be the first line at the
21 top -- I believe -- "In a given amount of amosite
22 would you expect to find more or less or the same
23 number of fibers as an equivalent weight of
24 Calidria."
25 Q. All right. So what you sent to Dr.
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220

Ilgren
'4 0i
2 Addison was the portion of the transcript where
3 that question was asked?
4 A. Yes. It was more than this. I think
5 a whole page. But I thought I had put it in. But
6 maybe I didn't put it in.
7 Q. What you sent to Dr. Addison was a
8 page from the transcript that contained one
9 question and an answer or were there other
10 questions and answers?
'
11 A. I think there were three or four '
12 questions and answers.
13 Q. And were all of those questions and
14 answers on this topic of comparing Calidria to
15 amosite in terms of mass or number of fibers?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. . And whose idea was that to send that
18 to Dr. Addison for his comments?
19 A. Mine.
20 Q. And why was it that youwanted Dr.
21 Addison's comments on those questions and answers?
22 A. I didn't understand what Art was
23 talking about.
24
Q.
And Dr. Addison'sletter
says, there
25 is not much to say about the transcript

` Ilgren'
402
2 discussions except that they seem to be fairly
3 uninformed about the nature of asbestos. Is he
4 referring there to the question or the answer?
5 A. Both.
6 Q. Then hesays, "I have put a few ideas
7 down on paper for you." And what I'm wondering is
8 where do his ideas start here? Is that on the
9 third page of this exhibit?
10 A. In fact, I believe the entire
11 thing -- the entire document, these three pages
12 are written by Addison. The Q and A page that I
13 sent to him is not here.
1
14 Q. So what we got in this Exhibit 14 is
15 we got the first page is a cover letter from Dr.
16 Addison. Then there are three pages of Dr.
17 Addison's commentary.
18 A. Right.
19
Q. And Dr.Addison'scommentary
is on -
20 is with respect to Dr. Langer's description of
21 this comparison between amosite and Calidria
22 fibers, is that fair to say?
23 A. Right.
24 Q. Now toward thebottom of the second
25 page of the exhibit, which is Dr. Addison's
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220

' Ilgren
403
2 commentary, he states -- I'm reading from down
3 here. He states -
4 A. All right.
5 Q. -- "If something is to be made of the
6 differences in size of the different asbestos
7 varieties, the most important thing to do is to
8 compare fibre populations." Do you see that?
9 A. Yes.
10 Q. He goes on to say, "The best fibre
11 populations to compare are the airborne fibers
12 since they are the one that constitute the hazard
13 and create the risk."
14 A. I see it.
15 Q. Is that a statement you agree with?
16 MR. WILL: Which part of it?
17 MR. BROWNSON: That the best fibre
18 populations to compare are the airborne
19 fibers since they're the ones that
20 constitute the hazard and create the risk.
21 MR. WILL: Are you asking him to
22 agree with the statement that the airborne
23 fibers constitute the hazard and create the
24 risk? Are you asking him to agree to the
25 part of the statement that the best fibre

Il-gren
404
2 populations to compare are the airborne
3 ones or are you asking him to agree with
4 both?
S MR. BROWNSON: I'm asking whether he
6 agrees with the statement as written by Dr.
7 Addison, whatever its implications may be.
8 A. Well, I would like to know what the
9 airborne fibers look like. I would like to know
10 if there's any fibre information from what you see
11 in the lung, of course, when you dig it out of the
12 ground.
13 Q. Is Dr. Addison saying here, as you
14 understand it, that in terms of looking at the
15 fibre populations, what is important to him is
16 what's in an aerosol as opposed to what's in the 17 ground or in a pellet or something else?
18 A. I believe so, yes.
19 Q. Do you agree with thegeneral
20 proposition that in a given unit mass of fibre,
21 there are more Calidria and amosite fibers simply
22 because they're smaller?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. Now, have you received any other -
25 or is there any other communication or

2 correspondence or letters or reports or documents
3 from Dr. Addison dealing with this case?
4 A. Not that I recall.
5 Q. So as far as his involvement in this
6 case such as it is,- y,,ou sent him this page of
7 pages of Dr. Langer's deposition that you had
8 questions on and he returned Exhibit 14 as his
9 comments?
10 A. Yes.
11 Q. And other than that, there'snothing
12 in writing from Dr. Addison with respect to this
13 case that you're aware of?
14 A. Aside from comments on Yeager --
15 Q. Let's go to that next.

6 to Dr. Addison that resulted in this exhibit, what 7 prompted him to write this, what was the question?
8 A. Principally, more information about 9 the fibre types and the populations and 6he
10 lengths and widths because he's used all. these 11 different fibre types. '
12 Q. Now first of all, you're familiar 13 with this paper that is being critiqued, the

21 out to that you can disagree with?
22 A. General answer, I disagree with list
23 conclusions.

2 you have a copy of that? Specifically I'm :
3 pointing to the last sentence of text that reads
4 as follows: "The fact that large numbers (5 times
5 10 to the ninth) of fine Calidria chrysotile
6 fibers were cytotoxic to human macrophages is
7 scarcely surprising and the fact then that even
8 larger numbers (1.15 times 10 to the eleventh)
9 were more toxic in even less surprising."
10 Q. Do you agree with that statement?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. Now, why was it that you asked Dr.
13 Addison to comment on the Yeager, et al. paper?
14 A. I had questions about the validity of
15 comparing certain Calidria fibers about UICC
16 fibers.
17 Q.
What I'm wondering, why did you go to
18 Dr. Addison as opposed to someone else for answers
19 to those questions?
20 A. Such as who?
21 Q. Why was it that you chose Dr. Addison
22 to ask the questions to as opposed to someone
23 else?
24 A. He's a great world authority.
25 Q. What is the area in which Dr. Addison

is a world authority?
A. The quantitative assessment and.
qualitative assessment of mineral fibers.
Q. And do you know if Dr. Addison has
done any of his own characterization of Calidria
asbestos fibre?
A. I believe he has.
.
Q. And do you know if that work has been
published anywhere?
A. I believe it hasn't.
Q. But despite the fact that Dr. Addison
has not published his work, you still rely upon
him as a leading authority in the end, in the area
of characterization of Calidria asbestos fibre?
MR. GOLDMAN: Object to form. I
believe the response is -- as to what was
unpublished was only one particular piece
of work, not his work in general.
MR. BROWNSON: I understand that.
A. Yes. `
`
Q. The answer is yes?
A. Yes.
Q. Now in addition to the comments by
Dr. Addison which are contained in thisExhibit

15, did Dr. Addison provide you with any other
written material or comments on the Yeager paper?
A. No.
Q. Now the copy I have of Exhibit 15
doesn't have table 1, it just tables 2 and 3. Do
you know where table 1 is?
A. I can't find it. Mr. Will made me
aware that table 1 wasn't there'and there were two
copies of tables 2 and 3. I need to find that. I searched for it and if I don't find it'. I'll call
Dr. Addison.
Q. There's a table 1?
A. As far as I recall. I'm not sure.
He obviously mentions table 1 in the text.
Q. Can you get a copy of that and
provide it to us?
A. Yes.
MR. GOLDMAN: He can try.
Q. Now did you have to pay Dr. Addison to do this review and write this report?
A. Yes.
Q. And how much did he charge for that
work? A.
Three hours at $300 an hour.

of your billable time or billings for the last
two-year period that have been devoted to these
Coalinga-related matters that include this case?
MR. GOLDMAN: Let me object to form.
Bob, this is a good time to clarify this
point. The only asbestos fibre sold by
Union Carbide is what Union Carbide mined
in King City. You know from our
interrogatory responses and Dr. Ilgren has
been retained by us as a scientific medical
expert on matters pertaining to what Union

3 going to use as general terms as pertaining
4 or relating to, I mean it was clear as
5 we've said in our interrogatory responses,
6 all of Dr. Ilgren's consulting for Union
7 Carbide pertains to Calidria and
8 Calidria -- all of Calidria comes from
9 Coalinga and so there are -- all of his
10 time in some way would have to be related
11 to that.
12 MR. BROWNSON: Maybe my question
13 wasn't clear. I wasn't implying otherwise.
14 I understood that.
15 Q. I'm not asking at this point other
IS work you might have done for Union Carbide, for
17 radiation or something. I'm just asking for work
18 you've done for Union Carbide with respect to
19 Calidria or Coalinga asbestos.
20 A. And the question is?

2 find was 1.03 FML. My understanding, for example,
3 the types of activities at the Conwed plant that
4 would have produced high levels, or the highest
5 levels would be, say, blow-downs as opposed to
6 finish or sanding.
-
7 I attempted to, say, reconstruct the
8 type of cumulative fibre-year dose a Conwed
9 workman would have incurred in a more or less
10 worst case scenario, and in that context I would
11 have estimated that a man in the plant in a
12 so-called blow-down setting would not have worked
13 there in that kind of situation for more than six
14 hours a week. And that would have gone on for 50
15 weeks a year, which would have been 300 hours a
16 year. If one takes 2,000 hours as the standard
17 work year and divides 300 by 2,000, one ends up
18 with 0.15 years.
19 If one then takes as the reasonable
20 estimate of the kind of upper working limit,
21 maximum working limit that one might find in a
22 ceiling tile plant for Calidria as one being the
23 highest level that they found, the most one could
24 incur in terms of a fibre year dose in a year
25 would be 0.15 years. The generally recognized
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220

2 threshold figure for clinically manifested is 50
3 fibre years which is generally placed on the
4 Rochedale Textile Work as cited by Doll & Peto
5 into their 1985 asbestos document.
6 Q. All right.
7 A. If one then asks the question how
8 many years that Conwed workman would have to work
9 in order to achieve a 50-fibre year cumulative
10 so-called threshold dose, one would then I believe
11 need to divide 50 by 0.15. But the threshold dose
12 of 50 fibre years is truly predicated on'a textile
13 milling situation in which there is not, say, 4
14 percent or 8 percent -- where 5 micro fibers, but
15 there would be 30 or 40 or 50 percent long fibers.
16 So what I would do is I would take the so-called
17 300 years and multiply it by at least two.
18 `
Q. Where do you get 300 years?
19 A. That's 50 fibre years divided by 0.15
20 years.
21 Q. All right.
22 A. That's 333, I think, something like
23 that.
24 Q. So your bottom line is that a worker
25 in the Conwed plant would need 666 fibre years?

2 A. My bottom line is that an individual
3 would need to work for 666 continuous years in
4 order to achieve sufficient exposure, in theory to
5 get Calidria-related asbestosis.
6 Q. How do you define clinical asbestosis
7 --

15 years in the Conwed plant to get clinical
16 asbestosis? 17 A. Prom Calidria chrysotile exposure.

19 workers do have clinical asbestosis after working
20 in that plant? ,, 21 MR. WILL: I object to the question.

5 asbestosis, no worker has come out of that plant
6 with clinical asbestosis?
7 A. I don't know what the MDA documents
8 documents say with precise instance, of disease.
9 Q, Are you saying there is no worker who
10 has come out of that plant with clinical
11 asbestosis?
12 A. I don't know.
13 Q. Have you reviewed the case of Mr. 14 Eugene Smith?
15 A. No.
16 Q. Have you-ever reviewed. any of the 17 asbestosis cases?
18 A. No. 19 Q. We spoke earlier when we started this 20 answer, your opinion on asbestosis from a Calidria
21 asbestos basis based upon a 79 HSE document. And 22 I assume that HSE is Health Safety Executive?
23 A. Yes. 24 Q. Which is a British government group? 25 A. Yes .

4 A. Yes .
5 Q. Do you know where that was published?
6 A. What was published?

'
12 Q. What do you know about the tile plant 13 in Uxbridge? Was that a plant where ceiling tile
14 was manufactured?
15 A. I believe so.
16 Q. And do you know when the ceiling tile 17 was manufactured in that plant?
18 A. I believe from 1947 to 1981.
19 Q. And is it your understanding that 20 amosite asbestos was a component in that ceiling
21 tile?
22 A. 23 Q. 24 amosite?
It is almost pure amosite. The tile was made of almost pure

Q. And does that document contain-
asbestos air level measurements in the plant
during production of that tile?
A. I believe so, yes.
Q. Do you know what those are?
A. What --
Q. The air level measurements of
asbestos during production of tile in that plant?
A. Yes.
Q. What are they?
A. They're categorized I think by
sanding, sawing, finishing, measurements in the
office, measurements in the plant floor. I can't
recall exactly every specific data set, but the
high readings, as I recall, were from 6 to 10.
Q. Fibers per cc?
A. Yes.
`
Q. All right.
A. There was some activity that said it
was greater than 20, but the highest reading that
was categorize, as far as I can recall, was 6 to
10 .
Q. All right. And in taking that data
and trying to translate it to the environment

2 within the Conwed plant when Conwed was producing
3 tile, was using Calidria asbestos, what you've
4 done is used the data from the 1972 Union Carbide
5 air monitoring survey to get your vessels in the
6 Conwed plant?
.
7.
A. Yes, in conjunction with these other
8 data.
.
9 Q. And of course if a particular worker
10 had an exposure greater than 1.03 fibers per cc,
11 he would need less than 666 years of work in the
12 plant to develop clinical asbestosis?
13 A. Yes.
14 Q. So are yousaying a person couldn't
15 get asbestosis from exposure to Calidria asbestos
16 because it's dose-dependent, and in your view a
17 very large dose would be needed?
18 A. Yes.
19 Q. You have attempted to calculate that
20 dose by -- based upon the data from the Oxbridge
21 plant as reported in the HSE 1979 report?
22 A. And the Conwed plant.
23 Q. Well, maybe we're arguingabout
24 semantics. I understand you're attempting to
25 translate the English data or superimpose it to

2 the Conwed plant experience?
_.
3 A. To some extent, yes.
4 Q. As I understand youropinion, you're
5 predicating your opinion upon the fact that you
6 believe none of the workers in the Conwed plant
7 have clinical asbestos, is that right?
8 A. No.
9 Q. So there may or may not be some
10 clinical asbestos, you just don't know?
11 A. There may be, there may not be, X
12 don't know.
13 Q. What this opinion was that you just
14 gave us is an opinion which is a calculation based
15 upon data from the Oxbridge ceiling tile plant in
IS England, transferred over to what you understand
17 about the exposure levels in the Conwed plant,
18 would that be fair to say?
19 A. To some extent.
20 Q. And with respect todata concerning
21 exposure levels in the Conwed plant, one piece of
22 data you have is the 1972 Union Carbide air level
23 survey, correct?
24 A. Yes.

have concerning exposures in the Conwed plant?
A. As I recall, there are only three.
The UCC 1972 document, the in-test document, and
one other which I can't remember.
Q. All right. MR. WILL: The Gaffney.
A. The Gaffney report.
Q* The in-test document, you understand
that to be a test done in connection with some
work on pipe covering in the boiler room of the
plant, or the steam plant?
A. I believe so.
Q. With respect to trying to calculate the exposure levels of what you call a worst case
scenario. did Conwed have a plan in doing
blow-downs; with the air hose?
A. Yes .
Q. Did you calculate or assume some value for those exposure levels?
A. Yes. '
'
Q. What was that? A. One.
Q. One fibre per cc? A. Yes.

2 Q. So what you were doing when you-made
3 this calculation was you were assuming that a man
4 doing blow-downs would be exposed to one fibre per
5 cc during his blow-down work?
6 A. Yes.
7 Q. Going back to Exhibit 18> which is
8 the lecture on microscopy data done in KCAC
9 November 30, 1991, look at page TEM-4, which is
10 under the heading of "Discussion," towards the
11 bottom of the: page, the second to the'last
12 paragraph
13 A. Yes .
14 Q. All right. 15 Q. There they're talking about fibre
16 width.
17 A.. Yes.
18 Q. With respect to what they term fibre 19 width, is that fibre diameter they're talking
20 about there?
21 A. I believe so.
22 Q. And they talk about what the means 23 and what the medians are?
24 A. Yes.
25 Q. And then they say, I'm reading at the

2 end, the last line, "all samples had their largest
3 component in the range from 0.03 to 0.05 microns,"
4 as reported in table 4. Do you see that?
5 A. Yes.
6 Q. I guess that means just what it says,
7 they - -
8 Q. Most of the fibre diameters - - if I
9 can summarize, most of the fibre diameters they
10 found of the Calidria asbestos with the TEM
11 analysis was in the .03 to .05 microns?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. The reason I was asking that, when I
14 was looking back at Dr. Addison's criticism of the
15 Yeager paper, which is Exhibit 15, on page 2, one
16 of the things he criticizes is the fact that
17 Yeager makes his calculation assuming an average
18 fibril diameter of 0.0333 microns, do you see
19 that?
20 A. Yes.
21
Q.
I understand that
to meanthat Dr.
22 Addison thought that was not a proper calculation
23 to use, is that what he appears to be saying?
24 A. I don't think so.
25 Q. Would you agree with me in the Yeager

2 paper the average fibril diameter was reported or
3 was -- or assumed to be .0333 microns? 4 A. I don't have the paper in front of 5 my. According to what Dr. Addison said, yes,
6 that's the case.
.
7 Q. If you read further in that paper,
8 Dr. Addison appears to be critical of the
9 assumption that the average fibre diameter is
10 .0333 microns, he says because the assumption
11 made - 12 A.
Where are you reading did.
13 Q. The last line, "would have an
14 influence on the calculated fibre numbers per
15 milligram."
'
16 A. That's what he says. 17 Q. Now, let me refer you to Exhibit 18
18 on table 2, which is at page TEM-7. And there - 19 they give a mean and a median for these Calidria
20 asbestos fibers, all right, for these samples.
21 A. Yes. 22 Q. With respect to the median length, 23 are those values generally consistent with other
24 published size distribution data that you have
25 seen?

2 A. X have to check again.
3 Q. I want to ask the same question with
4 respect to table 3 at page TEM-8, which is fibre
5 length breakdown or distribution. Are those
6 generally consistent with other published data
7 you've seen?
8 A. I've only seen RG-144. It's
9 basically consistent.
10 Q. Are you generally familiar with the
11 different grades of the Calidria asbestos and how
12 they're processed?
13 A. To some extent, yes.
14 Q. Does this table, table 3, generally
15 seem to indicate that the more the Calidria
16 asbestos is processed or the greater processing it
17 undergoes, the greater the number of fibers,
18 number one, and the great number of fibers less
19 than five microns, number two?
20 A. Say that again, the greater the
21 processing, the higher the percentage --
22 Q. The higher percentage of short
23 fibers?
24 A. It suggests the opposite, doesn't it.
25 Q. Let me ask it this way. Can you draw

2 any conclusions as to what table 3 suggests in
3 terms of the more milling, what happens?
4 MR. WILL: When you say milling,
5 processed in the mill?
6 MR. BROWNSON: Right.
7 A. I don't recall the precise details as
8 to how one transforms RG-144 to RG-.244, but I
9 think there's a siliconization there. I don't
10 think it refers to any more milling.
11 Q. Do you hold any opinions as a general
12 matter how milling affects Calidria chrysotile in
13 terms of size distribution?
.
14 MR. WILL: Can you be more specific
15 when you mean by milling? As you know,
16 there have been some experiments that
17 involve ball milling, which is what goes on
18 in the mill in King City in terms of
19 processing this ore?
20 MR. BROWNSON: Process milling?
21
MR. WILL: In the plant in King
'
22 City.
23 A. I don't know anything about it.

2 number 19, which is the second fibre size -
3 determination and distribution paper done for
4 KCAC, this was done in 1993, and it involves
5 testing of RG-244, one of which was treated with
6 silicon and one was untreated. Have you had a
7 chance to review this paper?
-
8 A. I've haven't looked at it in great
9 detail. 10 Q.
Do' these two papers. Exhibit 18 and
11 19, form a basis of any of your opinions in this
12 case?
13 A. They may. I need to go over them in
14 more detail.
15 Q. But at least at the present time,
16 they do not? 17 A. I don't think I can say anything at
18 the present time.
19 Q. Would it be fair to say if they do
20 form a basis of your opinion, you don't know what
21 22.
that is? A.
I think --my impression particularly
23 with respect to Exhibit 18 is that the sample that
24 I've become familiar with most, the RG-144,
25 doesn't indeed have a rather small percentage of

fibers that reflect microns. That seems to-be
confirmed by Exhibit 18, and that the widths
generally going between 3 and 500 angstroms is not
that different from what I envisage as the size
range for Coalinga fibre widths. I think I would
like to be able to say yes. I would.rely on this
to say it's consistent with other data that I have
seen.
Q. So in terms of these two exhibits, 18
and 19, there's nothing in here that startles or
surprises you in terms of their conclusions for
these size measurements and size distributions?
A. I would have to study it a bit more.
There is the RG-244, which is in the table 3,
Exhibit 18, it shows 11 to 18 percent fibers *
greater than five microns and 57 percent fibers
greater than 10 microns. I found that a bit high,
but I don't know much about the RG-244.
Q. And you say you find that a bit high
because it's higher than what you seen in RG-144
samples?
A. Yes.
Q.
Now onExhibit 19 on
the front,
there's some stuff blacked out there. Is that
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220
UCAREF00009275

' Ilgren
455
2 something you did or is that the way it came to
3 you?
4 A. That's something -- I had some funny
5 scribbling there.
6 Q. And did. the funny scribbling have
7 anything to do with editorial comments on your
8 part?
9 A. No. It's just some odd marking.
10 Q. All right.
11 A. I remember something. Could I say
12 something with respect to the threshold
13 characterizations I made with regard to Coalinga
14 asbestos? Just to simply indicate that it's not
IS only my belief that one would have to work for,
IS say, 600-odd years under that situation, it's also
17 my belief that it may in fact be much longer than
18 that because the calculations which I mentioned
19 were based on, say, standard Canadian type of
20 fibers. The Rochedale, I assume that's -- that's
21 either a Canadian or a long South African fibre.
22 I think what's worth commenting upon is that fact
23 this the Calidria fibre or fibril in my opinion is
24 equally different from the Canadian in being much
25 more likely to dissolve, being much more soluble
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220
UCAREF00009276

Ilgren '
456
2 than the so-called standard Canadian fibre.
3 Q. Is that a function of its chemistry
4 or its size?
5 A. it could be both. It's certainly in
6 my opinion the function of its size in that the
7 vast majority of Coalinga or Calidria fibers are
8 actually single fibrils. In that sense they're a
9 lot thinner and in theory would be a lot more
10 susceptible in the dissolution in the body fluids.
J 11 There may be peculiar chemical differences and 12 physical -- and chemicals are in a sense interlink
i 13 features. But there's certainly evidence in data
14 in my opinion to suggest that the Canadian fibers
15 composite of at least six or seven .fibrils
:j 16 cemented together with a matrix of unknown
17 character, it's often regarded as a silicate of
18 some sort. But the Calidria so-called fibre for
i 19 all purposes is a naked fibril about no amorphous
;,j 20 cementacious material. 21 Q. So if I can summarize what you just
3 22 said, do I understand that you believe that the
23 Calidria asbestos because it's shorter and thinner
24 than UICC standard grade Canadian asbestos, it's
25 less or requires longer to cause asbestosis
a DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220
UCAREF00009277

Ilgren'
457 '
2 because it's more easily dissolved in the body?
3 A. If it were at all, plus these other
4 properties of -- other properties lacking the
5 inner fibril or matrix and other different
6 properties.
7 Q. But one of those properties, as I
8 understand it, is simply its size? .
9 A. Yes.
10 Q. It's shorter and thinner, it's
11 smaller in essence?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. All right.
14 A. But I'm actually saying given equal
15 lengths, say, of 7 microns in lenght, Coalinga
16 fibre as opposed to a- 7-micron lenght in
17 Coalinga -- Canadian as opposed to Coalinga, it's
18 my firm belief that the Coalinga fibre is much
19 more susceptible to dissolution.
20
Q.
If you look at Exhibit 18, let's
take
21 RG-144, which you say it is the type of Calidria'
22 you're most familiar with. It's indicated on page
23 7, table two, that the mean length of these fibers
24 is 1.1 micron?
25 A. That's what it says are.

2 Q. For RG-244 ranges from two 2.45 to

6 us, that's shorter than standard UACC Canadian
7 chrysotile?
-
8 A. I believe so.
9 MR. WILL: If you took a mean -- a
10 mean is just an average?
11 MR. BROWNSON: Right. '
12 Q. There's a media reported here, but I
13 was talking about the mean which is average.
14 Median means middle and mean means average in
15 layman's terms?
16 A. Yes. 17 Q.. Are you familiar -
18 A. The percentage -- just to clarify,
19 the percentage of fibers in a UICC sample to my
20 recollection, would be on the order of 25 percent
21 and above where the percentage of fibers of
22 fibrils and Coalinga above 5 microns would be in
23 the order of 1 to 4 percent or 1 to 6 percent,

Q. We're now looking at Exhibit 21,
which I think is a paper you're familiar with.
A. I'm familiar with it.
Q. So just to add some familiar ground.
Exhibit 21 is a paper by Pinkerton and other
authors characterizing three types of chrysotile
asbestos after aerosolization?
A. Yes.
'
Q. You're familiar with this, of course?
A. Yes.
Q. One of the three types is what they
call Coalinga mine chrysotile, but that's Union
Carbide chrysotile?
A. I believe so, yes.
Q. And in the abstract andlater in the
body of the paper, they state, "The
characterization of these chrysotile preparations
in the aerosolized state, in particular the
Coalinga Mine chrysotile, demonstrated different
fibre length and fibre width distributions when
compared with previous characterizations of
samples that had been dispersed in a liquid medium

3 A. Yes.
4 Q. Do you seethat?
.) 5 A. Yes.
-
6 Q. I'm readinginthe abstract.
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. Then it goes on to say, "These
9 observations emphasize the importance of
10 determining the size distribution of fibers in the
11 aerosolized state for inhalation studies and the
12 size distribution of fibers in a liquid suspension
1 13 for oral ingestion, instillaton, or inj ection
J 14 studies."
15 A. Yes.
`
J 16 Q. Finally say they, "Because of
3 17 differences in length-width distributions, each of
18 the studied chrysotile preparations would be
3 19 expected to have different patterns of deposition
20 in the alveolar regions of the lung after an
21 inhalation exposure.
22 A. Yes.
23 .

2 Q. In all of the fibre size distribution
3 data that you have seen for Calidria asbestos,-
4 have you seen any size distribution data for that
5 asbestos in an aerosol state, dust in the air
6 other than what's reported in this paper?
7 A. I think the only other data set is
8 Muhle, et al., 1987, I think it's Muhle and
9 Pinkerton who have ever done that.
.
10 Q. Do you agree with the statement we
11 just read that for purposes of inhalation studies,
12 the size distribution in the aerosolized state is
13 important?
14 A. Yes.
15 Q. And if I can put that in simple
16 layman's terms, is that because inhalation studies
17 of breathing asbestos, and obviously when you
18 breathe something, what's important is what's in
19 the air that you're breathing?
20 A. Yes.
21 Q. Now have you ever seen any animal
22 inhalation data on Calidria asbestos?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. What is that?
25 A. Pinkerton et al., Muhle, et al.

2 Q. And is that reported in your book?
)
3 A. Muhle, et al. certainly is.
4 Q. All right.
5 A. Pinkerton et al. may not bebecause I
6 got it just a couple of years ago.
7 Q. I got a copy of your book here and
8 I'm trying -- I want to go -- to the inhalation -
9 the compilation -- or the reference to inhalation
j 10 data from thei Calidria fibre. I don't know if
i 11 we - - if you can find it higher.
12 A. Let me see.
13 A. It's on page 136.
14 Q. Let me put my tab there.
15 A. All right.
j 16 Q. And what you pointed out to us is the
3 17 reference to the Muhle, et al. paper of 1987?
18 A. Yes .
I 19 Q That's reported in your book as a
J 20 chrysotile Calidria inhalation experiment on 21 Wistar rats?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. Have you read that paper? 24 A. Yes . 25 Q. And does that paper form any basis

2 for your opinions in this case?
3 A. Yes.
4 Q. An if you can tell us what is the 5 fact or facts which you derive from that paper
6 that form ithe basis for your opinion in this case?
7 A. To me it indicates Calidria
8 chrysotile in high doses cannot induce tumors in
9 rats.
10 Q. Is that because in 50 female rats. 11 there were no mesothelioma tumors reported?
12 A. No tumors.
13 Q. All right. 14 A. No pathological changes at all.
15
Q. Of any sort?
.
16 A. Of any sort.
17 Q Now with respect to Pinkerton's paper 18 about inhalation, is that reported in your book?
19 A. No, it hasn't been reported yet.
20 Q. Is that because you're saying it was
21 too recent to go into the book?
`
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. Now you also report at least three 24 animal studies with respect to injection of
25 Calidria asbestos in your book, is that correct?

A. Yes.
Q. And we talked about those a little
hit last time, but I would like to ask you some
questions about those and I'm not sure the best
way to do it since I got the book. Maybe we have
to look at it together.
A. All right.
Q. The first reference I see is page X.
A. Roman 10.
Q. Roman 10, I'm sorry. Table 3. Chrysotile 25 milligram, intraperitoneal injection
of rats.
A. Yes.
Q. You report here Maltoni, et al. 1982. A. Right.
Q. And it's listed as Calidria. My question is. is that Calidria?
A. I don't know.
Q. Have you read those papers? A. Yes.
Q. As you sit here today, you don't recall whether it's Calidria or some other --
A. As I believe I said in the first
deposition, I wrote to Maltoni and I said is it

2 California Calidria or Coalinga and he didn't
3 reply.
4 Q. Is it your best understanding it's
5 one of the Coalingas or it's fibre from the
6 Coalinga deposit?
'
7 A. No, it could be -- there are a lot of
8 different chrysotile deposits around Calidria.
9 Q. Now the other one I wanted to refer
10 you was at page 90, that is the Suzuki paper 1984.
11 That's actually is Calidria, at least as reported
12 by you?
13 A. By Suzuki, it's RG-144 that he got
14 from Art Langer.
15 Q. All right. Then we got at page 94,
16 we got entries for Muhle, et al. which we talked
17 about before, but now we're talking about
18 injection and the inhalation. That is Calidria?
19 A. Right.
20
Q.
And then we gotPott,
andthis is
21 injection and that's Calidria?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. And then we got Rittinghausen, et
24 al., 1990?
25 A. All right. This isbasically the
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220

2 same lab.
3 Q. And that's Calidria?
4 A. Yes.
5
Q.
Then, now on page 101, we
got Maltoni
6 again, but it's just, recorded as Calidria
7 chrysotile, we can't be sure what that is?
8
A.
Right, that is the samestudy
as I
9 did in the beginning.
10 Q. Now I didn't find -- other than those
11 injection studies we looked at and the inhalation
12 study that you pointed to a minute ago, which I've
13 now underlined by Muhle, is there any other animal
14 data reported in your book which either are or
15 could be Calidria asbestos? '
16 A. There's one I found the other day
17 with Maltoni and Minardi 1988 which I haven't
18 actually seen before.
19 Q. Now that's reported in your index,
20 but I didn't find it in your book here.
21 A. But again is Calidria. I don't -- on
22 page 103.
23 {Discussion off the record) 24 Q. You've now identified on page 103 of
25 your book that Maltoni and Minardi, which is

2 listed as Calidria chrysotile 1988 --
.
3 incidentally, it's listed as '89. Do you know if
4 it' s '88 or ' 89?
5 A. I believe it's '89. It came out in
6 the IACC, but the galley I got was '88. You know
7 how it is.
8 Q- Here - 9 Q. I have it here. We'll mark it here.
10 (Whereupon, document entitled
11 "Non-Occupational Exposure to Mineral
12 Fibres " marked Plaintiff's Exhibit 22 for
13 identification, as' of this date.)
14 Q. So now we've got Exhibit 22 and this 15 is a photocopy I made of the 1989 Maltoni, et al.
16 A. Maltoni and Minardi.
17 Q- Yes. Injection. 18 A. Yes.
19 Q. That's reported in your book on page
20 102?
21 A. Right.
22 Q. What number is this? 23 A. 22 .
24 a. Now what I was trying to figure out
25 on this, and first of all, have you read their
DOYLE REPORTING, -INC. - 212-867-8220
UCAREF00009291
1 Ilgren
2
3 A. Yes.
4 Q. It doesn't say anywhere in here that
5 this is actually Calidria asbestos. And you had
6 told us earlier that you asked Maltoni whether -
7 what this Calidria was with respect to the 1982.
8 Did you ask the same with respect to this one?
9 A. I can't recall. I just called him in
10 Bologna and his secretary answered and I said,
11 "What's your fax number?" So I faxed him. I
12 don't recall exactly what I put in the fax,
13 whether I just said Maltoni '82 or in your studies
14 using Calidria without actually specifying a
15 paper.
16 Q. So you don't know as you sit here
17 today, you haven't received a definitive answer
18 whether this is Calidria or not?
19 A. No.
20 Q. If you look on page 49, under the
21 heading "Materials and Methods." It makes a
`
22 reference that the asbestos materials were
23 obtained from Mount Sinai School of Medicine in
24 New York?
25 A. Yes.
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220

3 A. Yes. 4 Q. So to try to move this along, the 5 actual laboratory research you have done 6 concerning asbestos is shown in your CV in two 7 places, one on page 2, second to last entry at 8 the bottom, and then it appears again on page 7 9 in this entry in the middle from '85 to '877 10 A. Are you asking me does this broadly 11 apply to every -- let me say it differently. In 12 terms of sitting in the lab and injecting rats, 13 doing animal studies, specifically hands-on 14 asbestos work? 15 Q. Right. 16 A. That's correct. 17 Q. I just want to ask some basic 18 questions. The study ofpathology is basically 19 looking at tissue from the body, correct? Thai's 20 what a pathologist docs? 21 A. It's a compound question, really. 22 What did you ask me, what was the first part? 23 Q. A pathologist, what a pathologist does 24 is look at or study tissue samples, would that be 25 fair to say? 0182 1 Ilgren 2 A. It could be tissue samples. It could 3 be various fluids. It's a whole range of 4 materials. 5 Q. Materials from the body? 6 A. A pathologist can also be an 7 experimental pathologist. A pathologist can also 8 be a research -1 think there is a whole array 9 ofcategories of pathologists. The person who 10 studies disease may be a fundamental research 11 pathologist who never looks at a body, doesn't 12 look at a whole organism, may spend his entire 13 life doing in vitro studies or theoretical 14 modeling. 15 Q. A pathologist does not treat living, 16 breathing patients and put a stethoscope to their 17 chest? 18 A. That's correct. 19 Q. The pathologist studies or analyzes 20 samples of tissue and fluid and that sort of 21 thing? 22 A. Pathology is the study of disease. A 23 pathologist is a person who studies diseases. 24 Q. I'm not trying to make more of this 25 than there is. but an epidemiologist also studies 0183 1 Ilgren 2 diseases, but a pathologist studies diseases from 3 the perspective of looking at or studying or 4 analyzing tissues and parts from the human body?

5 get mesothelioma?
6 A. I just said chrysotile cannot make
7 mesothelioma.
8 Q. I'm just talking about chrysotile
9 generally?
10 A. You mean like a tremolite

12 Q. Let's talk about Canadian.
13 A. I believe there's a tremolite
14 threshold from 200 to 300 fibre years.

16 chrysotile by itself cannot cause mesothelioma
17 under any circumstances?
18 A. In the absence of tremolite
19 contamination?
20 Q. Yes.
21 A. I would say in light of my knowledge
22 of the literature and study, yes.

24 chrysotile asbestos as it exists with its
25 tremolite contamination can cause mesothelioma but

2 there ia a threshold below which it cannot?.-;
3 A. Yes.
4 Q. In humans?
5 A. Yes.
6 Q. And do you base that in part upon the
7 animal data which is reported in your book?
8 A. No.
9 Q. So the animal data reported in your
10 book is not a basis for that conclusion?
11 A. No, it's more an understanding of the
12 Thetford Cohort.
13 Q. So what you're talking about
14 basically is studies by correspondence Corbet
15 MacDonald up in Canada or Quebec?
16 A. Yes.
17 Q. . Based on that data, you deduced that
18 there is a threshold exposure to that Canadian
19 chrysotile below which you cannot get mesothelioma
20 and above which you can?
21 A. Yes. And and also the Libby1
22 vermiculytes and tremolyte data.
23 Q. It's also your view, is it not, that
24 there's a threshold level of exposure to amosite
25 asbestos below which humans cannot get

479
2 mesothelioma and above which humans can get.
3 mesothelioma?
4 A. Yes.
5 Q. Is that threshold based upon the
6 animal data in your book? '
7 A. No.
8 Q. It's not. What is that based upon?
9 A. Uxbridge Patterson Cohorts.
10 Q. That's based upon studies of
11 workers - -
12 A. Perhaps you could ask your question
13 again to make sure.
14 Q. What I'm trying to find out, let's
15 start with your opinion that there is a threshold
16 or cutoff level of exposure to amosite asbestos
17 below which humans don't get mesothelioma and
18 above which they do.
'
19 A. Certainly the animal data contribute
20 and support the idea that there is a threshold in
21 humans, because in animals there are apparently
22 levels beneath which one doesn't get mesothelioma.
23 I was thinking more you were talking about the
24 sort of specific figures we had derived, Kevin
25 Brown and I, for amosite, the number of fibre

''
2 A. I don't know what the WDC samples had
3 in terms of potential tremolite. I don't feel by
4 any means that enough work has been done to
5 exclude the possibility that there is an analogous
6 situation in the animal studies, i.e. there's 7 amphibole present. I think there has been lung
8 burden analyses done of rats from Chris Wagner's 9 study published in 1986, I don't remember, which
10 have shown amphilbole in the lungs of these
11 animals. 12 Q.
How aboutthe injection studies you
13 reported in your book with Calidria asbestos where 14 tumors were produced, are you saying that those 15 tumors were not caused by the Calidria injected
16 into those rats? 17 A. You were talking a second ago about
18 Canadian - -
19 Q. Now I've changed topics.
20
A.
In terms
of changed topics, I feel
21 that tumors produced by Calidria in the Suzuki and
22 Maltoni studies were due to exceedingly high dose, 23 non specific mass effects predominantly.
24 MR. WILL: Is that assuming that
25 Maltoni used Calidria?

2 THE WITNESS: Yes.
3 Q. With respect to Suzuki, you'll agree--
4 that the Suzuki injection studies produced tumors
5 of mesothelioma. You're just claiming that they
6 used too much?
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. A very high dose in essence?
9 A. Yes, with 25 milligrams minimum into
10 the peritoneal cavities of a mouse.
11 Q. Going back to the question of amosite
12 asbestos and this idea of a threshold or cutoff
13 level below which will not produce mesothelioma
14 and above which it will. As I understand it, that
15 concept in your mind is based partly on the animal
16 data and partly on studies of plant workers at the
17 unarco plant in New Jersey and the Uxbridge plant
18 in Britain?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. Let me change gears a little bit and
21 ask you about background levels of mesothelioma/

the book, at the front of the book you make the
statement, and I'm paraphrasing, you find a
certain background or I guess idiopathic level of
mesothelioma in animals?
A. Yes.
Q. And you translate that to humans, is
that right?
A. Christ Wagner and I did compare
idiopathic background types, in a sense non
nonasbestos - related mesotheliomas found in humans.
There's a certain degree of comparability.
Q. Let me put it to you this way. In
reviewing this literature that you tabulated in
your book, you have come up with this idea there's
a certain number of mesotheliomas that occurred in animals that are not related to asbestos?
A. Yes. Q. You say this lends support to the
idea there are a certain number of mesotheliomas
in humans that are not caused by asbestos
exposure?
A. Yes.
Q. Is it your opinion that any of the
seven cases at Conwed of meso.thelioma were caused
DOYLE REPORTING, INC. - 212-867-8220

2 by background or nonasbestos causes?
3 A. X have to look at the case.
4 Q. As you sit here today, you don't
5 recall - -
6 A.
. They're very detailed cases.
7 Q. You have stated in your book that in
8 a particular animal study, if one mesothelioma is
9 seen -- does not indicate to you that it's related
10 to asbestos, is that fair to say?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. Now you compile all of these
13 different animal studies and the rates, whether
14 they are injection or inhalation studies and the
15 various percentages or rates of mesothelioma
16 found, and what I'm wondering as a general
17 statement, is there a level in animals, in the
18 animal studies that you regard as background, be
19 it 10 percent, 20 percent, 30 percent, whatever?
20 A. In my 1989 note to ASI, I discussed
21 exactly that point. One mesothelioma in an
22 inhalation study -- I think -- again, I would like
23 to have the paper in front of me. I think it was
24 25 percent in the intraperitoneal study and
25 somewhere 10 to 12 percent in the intraperitoneal

2 injection study.
3 Q. If we start with intraperitoneal
4 injection studies in animals -
5 A. Yes.
'
6 Q. -- it.'s^ your general view, I'm not
7 going to hold you to exact percentages, that about
8 20 to 25 percent of mesotheliomas that would show
9 up in those studies are background or
10 nonasbestos-related, is that fair to say?
11 A. Yes. In the context of the
12 experiment.
13 Q. And do you make any sort of
14 extrapolation or transference to human experience
15 based on that fact?
-
16 A.' Yes.
17 Q. And what is that?
18 `
A. To my mind it suggests that the
19 number of asbestos fibers that need to be injected
20 into the peritoneal cavity to produce a level
21 which exceeds this level of background figure is
22 extremely high.
23
Q.
I don't follow you.
You don't inject
24 asbestos into the peritoneal cavity, you're
25 talking about the animals?

2 A. I think I got the question wrong.
3 Q. My question is, if we take as a
4 proposition your conclusion that the
5 intraperitoneal studies show about a 20 to 25
6 percent background rate of mesothelioma in
7 animals - -
8 A. Yes.
9 Q. -- I'm wondering if we can take that
10 percentage and use that as a basis that a certain
11 percentage of human mesotheliomas are not caused
12 by asbestos?
13 MR. GOLDMAN: I object to the form
14 of the question.
15 A. The problem is that the manner in
16 which you arrive at the 20 to 25 percent figure is
17 that you take the number of tumors which just
18 simply arise spontaneously in the animal -
19 Q. Let me stop you there. You get that
20 from the control group?
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. All right -
23
A.
You get that -- fromcomparing
the

5 control group, in other words, a sham-treated
6 control where you just inject the needle into the
7 cavity, you get a certain percentage of tumors
8 from that manipulation. If you then do a
9 vehicle-alone treated control, so if the stuff is
10 injected in saline solution, you just inject
11 saline solution, you get another percent. Then if
12 you inject what they call a nonfibrous dust alone
13 control, you get another percent.
14 So this 20, 25 percent figure is the
15 composite of the untreated control, the
16 sham-treated control, the vehicle-alone treated
17 control, the fibrous control, which is to focus on
18 what specifically the agent is. That's the
19 variation of the figures.
20 When you go to humans, the only
21 element of that composite that is really
.
22 comparable, since we don't inject things into
23 animals, asbestos, would be the so-called
24 untreated control. That I think is running about
25 1 to 2 percent. I would have to look at the data.

2 Q. Now which data would you look at to
3 get that percentage?
4 A. I would look in humans, what data --
5 Q. in humans -- I thought that's what
6 you said?
7 A. No.
8 Q. Let's back up.
9 A. In animals, I would look at the
10 so-called spontaneous peritoneal examples.
11 Q. Is that the 1 to 2 percent?
12 A. I don't recall what the number is.
13 Or I would look at the untreated control group and
14 I would say, well, there's a low level of
15 mesothelioma arising in the peritoneal cavity of
16 animals and there is indeed a certain percentage
17 of peritoneal mesotheliomas arising in clearly
18 nonasbestos - exposed humans. And it's very small.
19 Q. You say peritoneal --
20 A. We're talking about the peritoneal --
21 Q. We should leave the discussion there.
22 EXAMINATION BY
23 MR. WILL:
24 Q. I would like to ask you two follow-up
25 clarification questions on this. Exhibit 18 and

2 Exhibit 20.
3 On Exhibit 18, Mr. Brownson asked you
4 some questions about something on page 4' where it
5 said that the -- all samples had their largest
6 components in the range of ..03 to .05 microns
7 referenced in table 4. Does that indicate that
8 the majority of the sample was in that range or
9 can you tell from that statement alone?
10 A. I can tell.
11 Q- It could be just a plurality?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. With respect to Exhibit 20, the Rood
14 and Streeter article.
15 A. All right.
16 Q. Mr. Brownson asked you a question
17 about the igeometric mean out of a text. I'm
3 18 referencing table 1. Does that also give the 3 19 arithmetic mean?
20 A. Yes .
21 Q. And to your understanding, the table;
22 in Exhibit 18 from ASTECO, are they geometric or
23 . arithmetic means?
24 A. I don't know.
25 Q. If you wanted to compare them, would

2 you need to know whether they are arithmetic or
3 geometric, which to compare them to?
4 A. Yes. The most appropriate analysis
5 would be a total fibre dimensional analysis.
6 Q. I'm j.ust asking if you wanted to -
7 A. Apples to oranges.
8 Q. You have to compare arithmetic to
9 arithmetic or geometric to geometric?
10 MR. BROWNSON: Unfortunately we
11 didn't get that done, so we'll not conclude
12 the deposition, but could we just ask that
13 the reporter take the exhibits marked today
14 . and put them with the transcript, $.nd I
15 want a copy of the transcript. . We have
16 five exhibits which are the five
17 mesothelioma files -- we'll do it at the

next session. We'll do it next time.

2 EDWARD B. ILGRBN,
3 having been duly sworn by the Notary Public,
4 was examined and testified as follows:
5 EXAMINATION BY
6 MR BROWNSON:
7 Q. I'mBobBrownson. We are here today
8 to take your deposition in a case entitled Conwed
9 Corporation versus Union Carbide versus two or
10 three third-party defendants.
11 I better state for the record that
12 none of the third-party defendants are present
13 here today. They were told about the deposition,
14 so we are going to go ahead without them.
15 With that being said, as I understand
16 it, you have had your deposition taken before, is
17 that correct?
18 A. Yes.
19 Q. Have you ever had it taken in any
20 context other than in asbestos litigation?
21 A. No.
.
22 Q. So it would be fair to say that any
23 depositions that have been taken ofyou as a
24 witness have been in the context of asbestos
25 litigation, correct?
0006
1 Ilgren
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. And that includes both personal injury
4 and property damage litigation, as I understand
5 it, correct?
6 A. Yes.
7 Q. Let me briefly run throughthose
8 depositions. Before I do, first of all, you
9 understand the deposition procedure, I know, but
10 for the record is it clear to you what the
11 procedure is here today and how the questions are
12 asked and answers given, you understand that?
13 A. Why don't you just review it.
14 Q. Let me say this. First of all I'll
15 ask questions and you can give answers and
16 there's a couple of things I would like to say.
UCAREF00009316
4
17 First of all, it's difficult for the 18 reporter to take us both talking at once, so try 19 to wait until the question is completed and I 20 will wait until the answer is completed. 21 Secondly speak up audibly and don't 22 mumble or shake your head or shrug your 23 shoulders. 24 If any ofthe questions are unclear. 25 tell me that before we answer them so we can be 0007 1 Ilgren 2 assured we have a record of answers in response 3 to questions that you understood. 4 A. Okay. 5 Q. Let's go back to these prior 6 depositions that have been taken where you were a 7 witness. 8 With respect to personal injury 9 asbestos cases, can you run down for me the 10 depositions that you have given in those cases? 11 A. I believe it's Doherty versus 12 W.R. Grace. The exact date 1 can't remember. 13 Somewhere around two years ago. 14 The second and third were together, 13 Ciliento and Seuss versus OCF. 16 The fourth would be Hermannson versus 17 W.R. Grace/Cooper Industries. 18 I believe there are only four personal 19 injury cases. 20 Q. The case ofDoherty versus W.R. Grace, 21 was that in Tampa, Florida? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. In that particular case were you 24 working on behalf of W.R. Grace7 25 A. Yes. 0008 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Any others or was it just Grace7 3 A. Just Grace. 4 Q. As I understand it, your deposition 5 was taken in that case, but do you know ifthe 6 case ever went to trial following that time? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. Did it go to trial? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q: Did you testify at trial? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. That was in Tampa, was it? 13 A. Yes. 14 Q. Do you recall on that occasion when 15 you testified at the trial of the Doherty case 16 whether that testimony was completed in one 17 or did you have to stay over? 18 A. One day.

UCAREF00009317
5
19 Q. The other two cases, the Ciliento and 20 Seuss, just so I'm clear, was your deposition 21 taken in connection with both cases in two 22 sessions or did they take it once for one of the 23 cases and then a second lime for the other one, 24 or how did that work? 25 A. Two cases, one session, one day. 0009 1 Ilgren 2 Q. So there was a single session of that 3 deposition and it applied to both ofthose cases? 4 A. Yes. 5 Q. Where was that case pending, do you 6 recall? 7 A. Jacksonville. 8 Q. Is that Duval County Circuit Court? 9 A. I believe so. 10 Q. On that particular case were you 11 working on behalf of OCF or someone else? 12 A. OCF. 13 Q. In connection with this particular 14 case, Conwed versus Union Carbide, let me ask 15 have you done any work on behalfofOCF in this 16 case? 17 A. No. 18 Q. Until you came here today were you 19 aware that they were a third-party defendant in 20 this case? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. When did you first become aware of 23 that fact? 24 A. I don't recall. 25 Q. In any event, going back to the case 0010 1 Ilgren 2 in Jacksonville where the deposition was taken, 3 do you recall ifthat case went to trial 4 following the taking ofyour deposition? 5 A. Yes. 6 Q. Did it go to trial? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. Did you testify at the trial? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Do you recall ifthat trial testimony 11 all took place on one day or did that go over a 12 second day? 13 A. One day. 14 Q. Were there defendants in this case 15 other than OCF other than at trial, as far as you 16 know? 17 A. Not that I recall. 18 Q. So as far as your best recollection 19 today, there were the two plaintiffs and then
20 defendant OCF?
UCAREF00009318
6
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. And those three parties went to trial?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. Who was representing OCF in that
25 trial, do you recall?
0011
1 Ilgren
2 A. Mr. Richard Hines.
3 Q. Who is he with, what firm, do you 4 know?
5 A. I cant recall.
6 Q. In preparing for your deposition or 7 trial testimony in that case, did you meet with
8 ary attorneys other than Mr. Hines?
9 A. I don't recall
10 Q. Do you recall ifMr. Garrard was
11 involved at all in the preparation of that trial?
12 A. No, he wasn't.
13 Q. How about Mr. Shaw from Columbia,
14 South Carolina, was he involved, Bruce Shaw?
15 A. No.
16 Q. Jim Crosby, was he involved?
17 A. No.
18 Q. The third case you mentioned is this
19 Hermannson case. That was a case in the Cook
20 County Circuit Court in Chicago, is that correct?
21 A. I believe so.
22 Q. As I understand it, your deposition
23 was taken in that case prior to trial, is that
24 correct?
25 A. Yes.
0012
1 Ilgren
2 Q. You also testified during the court
3 proceedings at trial in that case?
4 A. Yes.
5 Q. I was unclear, but was a second
6 session ofyour deposition also taken just before
7 you testified in that case or how did that work?
8 A. I think a month before.
9 Q. Maybe I can help you out I didn't
10 bring it with me today, but I got a transcript of
11 your deposition that was taken in the case. It
12 seemed to indicate that there had been a prior
13 session but you couldn't tell by reading the
14 comments, and that's where I got the idea that
15 maybe there was another session.
16 Does that help you at all recall
17 whether there were two sessions or one?
18 A. There were two sessions.
19 Q. So you recall one being about a month
20 before trial?
21 A. Yes.
22 Q. And then the second one on the eve of
UCAREF00009319
7
23 trial? 24 A. No, sir. 25 Q. When was the second one in relation to 0013 1 Ilgren 2 the trial? 3 A. I believe a month before. 4 Q. So the first, then, would have been 5 sometime about a month before trial? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. Do you recall why it was they had a 8 second session of that deposition? They just 9 didn't get done? 10 A. I believe I was initially retained by 11 W.R. Grace and they settled and then I received a 12 call from the representative of Cooper, and she 13 said we would like you to continue to work with 14 us on the case. 15 Q. 1 understand you prepared two written 16 reports in that case, is that correct, do you 17 recall that? 18 A. 1 recall one. I don't recall two. 19 Q. Let me see if I can move this along. 20 I saw a copy ofone report you issued in the case 21 which was a report addressed to, I believe, the 22 lawyer for Grace, and then following that time 23 you sent some either tumor tissue or clear lung 24 tissue to Dr. Gibbs for some tissue burden 25 analysis, and then there was much arguing and 0014 1 Ilgren 2 discussion among the lawyers on the record over 3 whether that evidence could be admissible and 4 there seemed to be a reference to a subsequent 5 report about that, but I couldn't tell if there 6 was or not Do you remember? 7 A. I can't recall if a subsequent report 8 was ever filed. 9 Q. Going back to these other three 10 personal injury plaintiffs that you mentioned, 11 Doherty, Ciliento and Seuss, do you recall ifyou 12 had tissue examined by either Dr. Gibbs or 13 Dr. Pooley in either of those three cases or for 14 either of those three plaintiff?
15 A. Possibly ail three, though I don't
16 recall exactly.
17 Q. Do you recall if it would have been 18 Dr. Gibbs or Dr. Pooley or both?
19 A. I think it's Gibbs' and Pooley's lab.
20 Q. So21 A. To some extent they work together.
22 Q- Pooley is in Wales, correct, in 23 Cardiff?
24 A. They are both in Wales. They are both
UCAREF00009320
8
25 in Cardiff 0015 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Do they share the same laboratory in 3 Cardiff? 4 A. I don't know. I just don't know their 5 physical setup. 6 Q. But in your experience, ifyou send 7 some tissue for a fiber burden analysis to that 8 lab, it could be done either by Pooley or Gibbs 9 or do you designate one or the other, or how does 10 that work? 11 A. Alan Gibbs receives the tissue and I 12 believe works with Fred Pooley to do the count, 13 the identification ofthe fibers, but I might be 14 wrong. I don't know. 15 Q. As 1 understand it. Dr. Gibbs is a 16 pathologist, is that correct? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. And Dr. Pooley is not a medical 19 doctor, he is a mineralogist? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. It's your understanding at least in 22 those three cases that they work together in 23 analyzing tissue, but you're not sure in those 24 three cases ifit goes to Pooley first and then 25 Gibbs or vice versa, would that be a fair 0016 1 Ilgren 2 summary? 3 A. It goes to Gibbs first, but beyond 4 that I don't know. 5 Q. I'm going to jump ahead a little bit, 6 but in this particular case, Conwed versus Union 7 Carbide, do you know ifany tissue of any worker 8 from the Conwed plant in Minnesota has been 9 examined by either Dr. Gibbs or Dr. Pooley? 10 A. I don't know. 11 Q. At least as far as any examination of 12 tissue being done through you, do you know if 13 that's been done or not by either Dr. Gibbs or 14 Dr. Pooley? 15 A. Not through me. 16 Q. So put another way, you have sent no 17 tissue to either Dr. Gibbs or Dr. Pooley for 18 analysis in connection with the present lawsuit, 19 would that be feir to say? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. Have you seen any tissue samples, 22 whether they are blocks or slides, of any of the 23 Conwed workers involved in this particular case? 24 A. No. 25 Q. Have you seen any of the pathology 0017
UCAREF00009321
9
1 Ilgren 2 reports ofany ofthe Conwed workers involved in
3 this case? 4 A. Yes, sir. 5 Q. Do yon recall the disease of the 6 workers? 7 MR. WILL: You mean as alleged? 8 Q. The diseases alleged in the workers 9 you have seen the reports of. 10 A. Alleged mesothelioma. 11 Q. How many of those have yon seen ofthe 12 Conwed workers? 13 A. Six. 14 Q. Well get into that later, but let's 15 move on to the other depositions that you have 16 given. 17 Other than the personal injury cases, 18 I understand that you have worked in at least two 19 building lawsuits concerning asbestos, is that 20 correct? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. Was one ofthem the Adams-Arapahoe 23 School District case in Colorado? 24 A. I don't believe so. 25 Q. Do you recall the names ofthe two 0018 1 Ilgren 2 cases you were involved with in terms of giving 3 depositions? 4 A. Cincinnati Schools, national Class 5 Action and City ofBaltimore. 6 Q. In the Cincinnati School case was that 7 for GAP or was that someone else? 8 A. Celotex. 9 Q. In the National School Class action, 10 who did you give a deposition on behalfof in 11 that case? 12 A. I don't recall. Either Celotex or 13 GAF. One or the other. 14 Q. In the City ofBaltimore case, do you
15 recall who the deposition was fOT in that case?
16 A. The same as the National Class. 17 Q. So it would be either Celotex or GAF? 18 A.. I just don't recall: 19 Q. Let me ask you this: Do you recall if 20 in the City ofBaltimore case the product at 21 issue that you were concerned with was floor 22 tile? 23 A. I just don't recall. 24 Q. Other than those three cases, have you 25 given any depositions in any asbestos building 0019 1 Ilgren 2 litigation?
UCAREF00009322
10
3 A. No, sir. 4 Q. Have you testified at any trials in 5 any asbestos building litigation? 6 A. No, sir. 7 Q. Have you given any depositions or 8 testified in any asbestos insurance-related 9 litigation? 10 A. No, sir. 11 Q. So would the depositions you have now 12 told us about in the four personal injury 13 plaintiffs and the three building plaintiffs 14 comprise the depositions you have given? 15 A. I believe so. 16 Q. Likewise with the trials, it looks 17 like you have testified in the three personal
18 injuty trials? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. Would that comprise all of the trials 21 that you have testified in? 22 MR.GERSON: Relating to asbestos? 23 MR. BROWNSON: Right 24 A. Yes, sir. 25 Q. Let me change topics a little bit and 0020 1 llgren 2 talk about the present lawsuit 3 My first question concerning this case 4 is when were you first retained in connection 5 with this case? 6 A. Perhaps two years ago. 7 Q. Do you maintain any sort of written 8 record or file in connection with that that 9 would contain any materials in connection with 10 this case? 11 A. A small file. 12 Q. Where do you maintain that file? 13 A. My office in Bryn Mawr. 14 Q. What are the contents ofthat file? 15 A. Records of alleged mesothelioma 16 cases. Literature. Hygiene records. Related 17 papers. 18 Q. Under the category of related papers, 19 does that include correspondence? 20 A. Some. 21 Q. Is there a correspondence with any 22 other medical doctors that you maintain in the 23 file? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. Is the correspondence between yourself 0021 1 llgren 2 and other doctors? 3 A. Medical doctors or doctors? 4 Q. Is there correspondence between you
UCAREF00009323
11
5 and other medical doctors maintained in the file? 6 A. Who is a medical doctor? I don't mean 7 to be silly or stupid. 8 Q. An MD. 9 A. It doesn't have to be a treating 10 physician? 11 Q. No, anyM.D. 12 A. Related specifically to this case? 13 Q. Right 14 A. Kevin Browne is an M.D., and that's 15 all I remember at the moment. 16 Q. You didn't bring the file with you 17 today to the deposition? 18 A. No. 19 Q. Did you review the file in preparation 20 for the deposition today? 21 MIL GERSON: Which file are you 22 referring to? 23 MR. BROWNSON: The file we havejust 24 been talking about that he maintains at Bryn 25 Mawr concerning this case. 0022 1 Hgren 2 A. At some point. 3 MR. BROWNSON: Trevor, do you have any 4 objection to us getting a copy ofhis file? 5 MR. WILL: I think so. Can we be a 6 little more specific? I don't think he 7 reviewed the correspondence with Kevin 8 Browne in preparation for the deposition, if 9 that's what you're asking. 10 MR. BROWNSON: I don't know what he 11 reviewed. Let me ask more about that. 12 Q. Let me zero in a little bit. As I 13 understand it, you have a specific file you 14 maintained in Bryn Mawr in which you keep papers 15 in connection with this case, Conwed versus Union 16 Carbide, is that fair to say? 17 A. I don't know if it's exactly specific 18 to this particular case. 19 Q. You do have certain medical records 20 specific to this particular case, correct, 21 regarding -- 22 A. Very few. Just the six case 23 summaries. 24 Q. The six case summaries. 25 A. Yes. 0023 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Let me start with those. When you say 3 you have six case summaries, are those summaries 4 of records or are they actual medical records? 5 A. It's a sort of mixture, as I recall. 6 Some are summary pages from medical records and
UCAREF00009324
12
7 then one or two are like path reports and a 8 radiology report. It's certainly not a 9 voluminous, full record for each case. 10 Q. Do you know by whom the summaries of 11 the records were prepared? 12 A. No. 13 Q. But in any event, at your office at 14 Bryn Mawr in Pennsylvania you do have records 15 concerning six Conwed workers alleged to have 16 mesothelioma, would that be fair to say? 17 A. Yes. 18 RQ MRBROWNSON: I request you to give 19 us a copy of the records that he has 20 concerning the six mesothelioma cases. 21 MR. WILL: Yes, I think we can get a 22 copy ofthose. 23 Q. Other than the records ofthe six 24 cases involving mesothelioma, do you have records 25 of any other Conwed workers currently in your 0024 1 Ilgren 2 possession at Bryn Mawr or in that file or 3 anywhere else? 4 A. No, sir. 5 Q. Have you seen records involving any 6 other Conwed workers other than those six cases? 7 A. No, sir. 8 Q. Do you have any other plans that 9 you're aware ofat the present lime to review 10 records of any workers other than those six 11 cases? 12 MR. GERSON: Conwed workers? 13 MR. BROWNSON: Right. 14 A. Perhaps. 15 MR WILL: Given Fred Bergstrom's 16 allegations, ifwe ever get any information t 17 on Fred, we may ask Dr. Ilgren to take a 18 look at that. You know the situation with 19 him. You're very aware of that 20 Then depending on what your Dr. Kagan 21 and Dr. Harber say, we may ask him for 22 things in response to that. 23 Q. At the present time would it be fair 24 to say that you have been asked to examine 25 records ofmesothelioma cases from the Colgate 0025 1 Ilgren 2 plant, as opposed to asbestosis cases, for 3 example? 4 MR GERSON: Beyond the six he said he 5 examined? I don't understand your 6 question. 7 Q. First of all, as I understand it, you 8 have been asked to examine six cases, correct?
UCAREF00009325
13
9 A. No. 10 Q. You have been asked to look at records 11 of six cases?
12 A. No. 13 Q. What have you been asked to do in 14 connection with those six cases? 15 A. Nothing. 16 Q. Have you been asked to make a 17 determination as to the diagnosis on those six 18 cases? 19 A. No, sir. 20 Q. Would you be able to determine the 21 adequacy of the diagnosis based on the records 22 currently in your possession or would you want 23 further information to do that on those six 24 cases? 25 A. I would have to review the individual 0026 1 Ilgren 2 cases again, but probably further information. 3 Q. Have you arrived at any conclusions, 4 sitting here today, as of June 21,1994, as to 5 the diagnosis of those six cases? 6 A. No, sir. 7 Q. Have you spoken to any of the treating 8 physicians on those six cases? 9 A. No, sir. 10 Q. By treating physicians, I mean to 11 include pathologists who may have done stains or 12 looked at tissues, have you spoken to any of 13 those people in connection with those six cases? 14 A. No. 15 Q. Have you been requested to do so in 16 connection with those six cases? 17 A. No. 18 Q. I understand from Mr. Will's comments, 19 and he can probably correct me, but it's my 20 understanding that Union Carbide has asked you to 21 or has advised you that you may be looking at 22 further Conwed worker records in the future. 23 Would that be a fair statement? 24 A. No, sir. 25 Q. So they have told you nothing in that 0027 1 Ilgren 2 regard? 3 A. No, sir. 4 Q. Other than what Mr. Will said here 5 today? 6 A. Yes, sir. 7 Q. Have you seen any x-ray films from any 8 of the Conwed workers? 9 A. No. 10 Q. Have you seen any of the pulmonary
UCAREF00009326
14
11 function tests ofany of the Conwed workers? 12 A. Perhaps, but I don't recall 13 Q. Ifyou had seen pulmonary function 14 testing would it be of some of the six you have 15 described or ofsomeone else? 16 A. Ofthe six. 17 Q. So would it be fair to say that other 18 than the six cases you have described for us, you 19 haven't seen any of the records of the other 20 Conwed workers? 21 A. Correct 22 Q. Or summaries of the records? 23 A. Correct 24 Q. Or x-ray films? 25 A. Correct. 0028 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Have you spoken to any physicians who 3 have seen airy of the Conwed workers either as 4 consultants or as treating physicians? 5 A. No, sir. 6 Q. Have you been asked to speak to any of 7 those physicians? 8 A. No, sir. 9 Q. Going back to this file you maintain 10 at Bryn Mawr, is there an actual file that 11 contains material specifically related to this 12 case other than the medical materials on the six 13 cases you have toid us about7 14 A. Just a file. 15 Q. Does the file have a title? 16 A. No. 17 Q. Does it have any writing on the jacket 18 or the file folder? 19 A. Just the names of the six. 20 Q. Of the six workers? 21 A. Alleged mesothelioma workers. 22 Q. In addition to that, have you 23 collected any documents or other information 24 relating to the Conwed case? 25 MR. GERSON: Objection to form as it's 0029 1 Ilgren 2 overly broad, but ifyou can answer it, go 3 ahead. 4 A. I mean I don't want to annoy you, 5 perhaps you could just qualify it a bit 6 Q. Let me put it this way. You were 7 retained approximately two years ago to work on 8 this case, correct? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Since that time, other than the 11 records of the six patients that you have 12 described for us, have you collected any other
UCAREF00009327
15
13 records or documents for your use in working on 14 this case? 15 A. I believe I have some Conwed hygiene 16 data, and there is some answers to 17 interrogatories which describe the manner and 18 type of asbestos used at the plant between 1958 19 and 1970,1 think 1970 or '73. 20 Q. In connection with your work in this 21 case, have you reviewed any literature, published 22 literature, upon which you rely fbr any opinions 23 you are rendering in this case? 24 A. Yes, sir. 25 Q. Is that maintained in some file? 0030 1 Ilgren 2 Where is that kept? 3 A. The same. 4 Q. That's in the same file that we were 5 just talking about? 6 A. I guess not to be semantical, but it's 7 not physically within the same file. It's within 8 other file cabinets. It's a typical office with 9 different file cabinets. 10 Q. Have you, for example, reviewed in 11 connection with this case any ofthe published 12 literature dealing with chrysotile fiber from the 13 Coalinga mine in California? 14 A. Yes. 15 Q. Is that maintained somewhere inyour 16 possession? 17 A. Yes. 18 RQ MR. BROWNSON: I request a copy ofthe 19 published literature dealing with Coalinga 20 fiber that he has reviewed in this case. 21 MR. WILL: Let's go through this and 22 let's discuss exactly how we are going to 23 handle this. Let's do that and figure out 24 the best way to get you what you need that's 25 appropriate. I think you're going to want 0031 1 Ilgren 2 to talk to him about what else he has, so 3 let's deal with this offthe record and then 4 put it on the record. 5 MR. BROWNSON: We can do that, but 6 since I am a methodical person, my notes are 7 in outline form. I'll just note them as we 8 go along. I'm not doing it because I'm 9 making multiple requests, but because that's 10 the form 1 have. 11 Q. Have you also reviewed in connection 12 with this case any unpublished documents or 13 reports or studies concerning the Coalinga fiber 14 from California?
UCAREF00009328
16
15 A. Yes. 16 Q. Or analyses of that fiber? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. Do you maintain copies of those 19 reports or analyses? 20 A. Some. 21 Q. Do you maintain copies ofall ofthe 22 reports or analyses, unpublished reports or 23 analyses ofthe Coalinga fiber that you have 24 reviewed in connection with this case7 25 A. Yes. 0032 1 Ilgren 2 RQ MR. BROWNSON: I ask to get a copy of 3 those too. 4 MR. WILL: Same thing. 5 Q. Do you recall what form those reports 6 or analyses take? 7 A. Paper. 8 Q. They are on paper as opposed to 9 computer disk, correct, or some other format? 10 A. Yes. 11 Q. Do you recall if those were reports or 12 analyses which were done specifically in 13 connection with this case or are they reports or 14 analyses that were done in some other context 15 that you obtained for use in this case? 16 A. Another context. 17 Q. Who were the authors ofthose? 18 MR. GERSON: Ofall the unpublished? 19 MR. BROWNSON: Right. 20 MR. GERSON: You're asking about the 21 unpublished reports which he reviewed in 22 connection with this case? 23 MR. BROWNSON: Right, concerning the 24 Coalinga fiber. 25 A. Off the top of my head. I'll do my 0033 1 Ilgren 2 best. 3 Q. Give the ones you can recall. 4 A. Nauman. Dresher. Wooleiy. Park. 5 Jordan. Hodgson. Addison. Bright Thickstun. 6 Addison. Mumpton. Graf. Haartz. Martin. 7 IITR1. Browne. 3 Q. Is that Kevin Browne? 9 A. Yes. Langer. Morgan, Arthur Morgan. 10 Q. Those are what you recall? 11 A. At the moment. 12 Q. Have you seen any -- 13 A. Weiss. Then the MDH Conwed report. 14 Q. That's the Minnesota Department of 15 Health? 16 A. Yes, 1989.
UCAREF00009329
17
17 Q. That's March 1, 1989? 18 A. I don't recall. March or September.
19 Q. It's a thick report? 20 A. Yes.
21 MR. WILL: You're giving the publish
22 ones now?
23 THE WITNESS: No, unpublished.
24 Q. I guess you included that because I'm 25 not quite sure if that's published or
0034
1 Ilgren
2 unpublished.
3 A. Published as in standard
4 peer-reviewed, scientific, off the shelf, yes.
5 They would be not in that category.
6 Q. That's the context in which I was
7 asking the question. When I said published, I
8 meant peer-reviewed publications.
9 A. Yes.
10 Q. Airy others?
11 A. Again off the top of my head, I don't 12 recall.
13 Q. In addition to the reports or papers
14 that you havejust described to us, unpublished
15 reports or papers that you have reviewed in
16 connection with this case, have you reviewed any
17 other unpublished reports or papers dealing with
18 Coalinga asbestos that you did not consider in
19 connection with this case?
20 MR. GERSON: Referring to papers
21 specifically about the Coalinga?
22 MR.BROWNSON: Right, which deal with
23 it in some fashion. Let me put the question
24 another way.
25 0035 1
Q. Were there some papers or reports or Ilgren
2 analyses dealing with the Coalinga asbestos fiber
3 ofwhich you are aware and you looked at and you
4 decided thisjust has no relevance to the Conwed
5 versus Union Carbide case or I'm not going to
6 consider it in the context of that case?
7 A. Not to my knowledge. The question is
8 slightly complicated, but not to my knowledge.
9 Q. Let me ask you a little bit about the
10 reports you have described.
11 First of all, the Minnesota Department 12 of Health report, I actually brought a photocopy
13 of it here and I'm sure it's the one you're
14 talking about, a report to the Minnesota
15 legislature and a picture of the Conwed plant on
16 the front?
17 A. I don't recognize the cover.
18 Q. Actually in its published, and I use
UCAREF00009330
18
19 that term in quotation marks, version, it's a 20 brown or tan or yellowish cover. Does that help
21 you?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. So I have just shown you a report
24 which is a photocopy ofa report entitled
25 "Medical Screening for Asbestos-Related Lung
0036 1
Ilgren
2 Disease among Conwed Corporation Cloquet Workers
3 And Their Spouses, Preliminary Report To The
4 Legislature, March 1, 1989," by the Minnesota
5 Department ofHealth.
6 I will show you the photocopy of the
7 report Is that the report that you mentioned?
8 MR. GERSON: Do you want to mark that
9 as an exhibit?
10 MR. BROWNSON: No, I don't. I do have
11 a clean copy we could mark.
12 Q. Is this a report that you reviewed?
13 A. It appears to be so.
14 Q. They always look a little different in
15 photocopy form.
16 A. Yes, it appears to be.
17 Q. Do you recall if the version that you
18 reviewed and is in your possession is an actual
19 bound version that has the yellow or tan cover on
20 it?
21 A. No, as I recall it's unbound.
i
22 Q. In addition to that report, have you
23 seen or reviewed any other materials from the
24 Minnesota Department of Health in connection with
25 the Conwed workers?
0037
1 Ilgren
2 A. I think one set of hygiene data came
3 from the MDH. I don't recall.
4 Q. When you say one set of hygiene data,
5 do you recall what sort of material was in that?
6 Was it air samples?
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. Is that something that you maintain in
9 your possession?
10 A. Yes.
11 Q. Do you recall that being some data
12 that was compiled by the Minnesota Department of
13 Health?
14 A. I believe so, but I don't recall.
15 Q. Did you receive it directly from the
16 Minnesota Department of Health, as you recall?
17 A. No.
18 Q. Do you recall the date or approximate
19 date of the air samples that were taken in that
20 data?
UCAREF00009331
19
21 A. No.
22 Q. Do you know if those samples were
23 taken on or before 1974?
24 A. I think so, but I don't recall the
25 exact date.
0038 1
Ilgren
2 Q. Have you seen any of the
3 air-monitoring data taken by Union Carbide
4 industrial hygienists at the Conwed plant in
5 approximately 1972?
6 A. I believe so, yes.
7 Q. Is that the data you're speaking of or
8 were you speaking of something different than
9 that? 10 A. Different than what?
11 Q. You said earlier you had seen some
12 hygiene data that you thought might have come
13 from the Minnesota Department ofHealth. I'm
14 wondering ifthat data is the data that was taken
15 by the Union Carbide industrial hygienists in
16 Cloquet in October 72 or if it's some other
17 data. 18 A. I don't recall. It might be the UCC
19 set It might also be another set. I just don't
20 recall.
21 Q. Do you recall, sitting here today,
22 seeing any air sampling or air-monitoring data
23 out of the Conwed Cloquet Minnesota plant other
24 than taken by Union Carbide industrial
25 hygienists?
0039 1
Ilgren
2 A. Ijust dont recall.
3 Q. Would it be fair to say that whatever
4 data you have seen, you have a copy of it in your
5 possession somewhere?
6 A. Yes, sir.
7 Q. So when you spoke earlier about seeing
8 hygiene data and having a copy of hygiene data,
9 to use your term, is that what you're speaking
10 of or were you talking about something in
11 addition to that?
12 MR. WILL: I lost the reference to
13 "that,''
'
14 Q. You have told us that you do recall
15 seeing Union Carbide air-monitoring data from the
16 Conwed plant, correct?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. In addition to that, you thought maybe
19 there was something else that you got through the
20 Minnesota Department ofHealth, but you couldn't
21 be sure.
22 A. Yes.
UCAREF00009332
20
23 Q. My question is when you spoke earlier 24 about having in your possession copies of hygiene 23 data from Conwed, are those the materials you 0040 1 Iigren 2 were speaking ofor were you including something 3 else? 4 A. Those were the materials. 5 Q. You also told us about Interrogatory 6 answers that you have seen and reviewed and you 7 maintain in your possession. 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. Who was answering these 10 interrogatories? Is it Union Carbide or is it 11 Conwed or is it both or somebody else? 12 A. I don't recall. I think it was 13 Conwed, but I don't recall 14 MR WILL: I can help you. They are 15 your answers to interrogatories, the 16 question that asks about the purchase of 17 asbestos fiber. 18 A. There is also the NAAC letter to I 19 guess Conwed. 20 Q. You're speaking of a letter from the 21 North American Asbestos in Chicago? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. To Conwed? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. You have seen that letter and you 0041 1 Iigren 2 maintain a copy ofthat letter in your
3 possession?
4 A. Yes. 5 Q. In addition to that, as I understand 6 it, you have some interrogatory answers that 7 describe the shipments or use of asbestos to the 8 Cloquet plant? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Included with that did you get copies 11 of invoices showing shipment of fiber to the 12 plant? 13 A. No. 14 Q. Sitting here today, can you give us a 15 sketch ofwhat you recall the use of asbestos at 16 the Conwed plant based upon those materials? 17 A. A sketch of it? 18 MR WILL: What do you mean, by date, 19 by fiber type, by amount? Are you asking 20 him to describe the production process? 21 Q. I'm asking based on the materials you 22 have described to us, I want your understanding 23 of what type of asbestos was used and when and ' 24 how much, as you recall it
UCAREF00009333
21
25 A. The document is eight or nine pages 0042 1 Ilgren 2 long. The first halfseems to list the 3 chrysolite. The second halfseems to list the 4 amosite. The initial date of input for 5 chiysotile I think was 1966, though I can't be 6 sure, and it comes in the form of what they 7 describe as cationic pellets, a few odd shipments 8 of loose form, and I think there is another form 9 again that seemed all to be Union Carbide. 10 Then it's broken down, ifI recall, 11 several installments per year from 1966 to, 1 12 think it's 1973. 13 I don't remember the tonnage per year, 14 but there seemed to be from several hundred to 15 several thousand. 16 Then the amosite began, as I recall, ' 17 in 1958. It was from NAAC/Cape, I assume the 18 Cape distributor. It was grades G, GK and D, I 19 think. Again the tonnage, as I recall, ranged 20 from several hundred to several thousand tons, 21 though I wouldn't say that was per annum. Again 22 I would have to sit down with the numbers. 23 Q. Let me ask you this. Have you 24 obtained information concerning the amount and 25 type of asbestos used at the Cloquet plant from 0043 1 Ilgren 2 any source other than the interrogatory answers 3 and the letter from North American Asbestos that 4 you have described? 5 A. Yes. 6 (Recess taken.)
7 BY MR. BROWNSON:
8 Q. The last question was have you seen 9 other documents concerning the use, amount, type 10 or date, the use of asbestos at Conwed other than 11 those that you have described to us? 12 A. I think so, but I can't recall the 13 titles. 14 Q. Whatever those would be, would copies 15 of those also be maintained in your possession? 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. In connection with your work in this 18 case, you mentioned to us earlier that you had 19 either obtained or reviewed or relied to some 20 extent on correspondence with others. 21 MR. WILL: I don't think he said 22 that. 23 Q. I thought you did, so let me ask the 24 question. 25 In connection with your work in this 0044
UCAREF00009334
22
1 Ilgren 2 case, Comved versus Union Carbide, have you 3 collected or obtained or used correspondence from 4 other medical doctors, as we discussed before? 5 MR. WILL: That's actually kind of a 6 multiple question. I'm hot trying to be too 7 difficult. 8 A. You asked me about Kevin Browne. 9 Q. You said there was some correspondence 10 between yourselfand Kevin Browne. 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. Is that correspondence to Browne or 13 from Browne or both? 14 A. I don't recall. I think it's both. 15 It could be both. 16 Q. Is that correspondence that was 17 generated in connection with your work on this 18 case? 19 A. Perhaps not specifically. 20 Q. Was it correspondence that was 21 generated in connection with the issue of 22 Coalinga chrysolite fiber? 23 A. In part, I think. 24 Q. Does the correspondence mention 25 Coalinga chrysotile fiber? 0045 1 Ilgren 2 A. I think so, but -1 said before I 3 thought so. I'm not a thousand percent sure. 4 Q. Is it something that you relied upon 5 in any way in your work in connection with this 6 case, that correspondence? 7 A. No, sir. 8 Q. Is it something you relied upon in any 9 way in connection with any opinions you hold as 10 to the biological potential of Coalinga 11 chrysotile asbestos? 12 A. I think it's safer for me to actually 13 look at the correspondence, because I can't 14 recall at the moment the nuts and bolts of the 15 contents. 16 Q. Have you spoken to Dr. Kevin Browne 17 concerning this case, Comved versus Union 18 Carbide? 19 A. Not specifically this case. 20 Q. Have you spoken to Dr. Browne 21 concerning the issue of any biological potential 22 or health effects of Coalinga chrysotile asbestos 23 fiber? 24 A. Possibly. 25 Q. Do you know ifyou had any record of 0046 1 Ilgren 2 those conversations? Has that been reduced to
UCAREF00009335
23
3 writing in any way? 4 A. I don't think so, but possibly. 3 Q. In addition to this correspondence you 6 mentioned between yourself and Dr. Brown, do you 7 have any other correspondence with anyone that 8 deals with this particular case that you maintain 9 in your possession? 10 A. Could you repeat the question. 11 (The record was read.) 12 A. There are a couple of letters from 13 Trevor WilL 14 Q. To you? 15 A. I believe so. 16 Q. Other than those couple of letters 17 from Trevor Will to you, do you know ofany other 18 correspondence that you have in your possession 19 in connection with this case? 20 A. Nothing springs to mind. 21 Q. Do you know ifthere has been any 22 correspondence generated in connection with this 23 case that may no longer be in your possession? 24 MR. GERSON: Generated by anyone? 23 MR.BROWNSON: Right, that he has seen 0047 1 Hgren 2 in connection with this case. 3 A. Off the top of my head, no. 4 Q. You had mentioned earlier that you 5 maintain in your possession copies ofwhat you 6 described as related papers and you indicated 7 that correspondence was one ofthe things that 8 would be a related paper. 9 Other than correspondence can you 10 think ofwhat else these related papers would 11 comprise? 12 A. Papers related to Calidria. 13 Q. Just for the record, Calidria is a 14 trade name that Union Carbide used and maybe 13 successor companies have used for the Coalinga 16 asbestos that comes from the New Idria deposit, 17 is that correct? 18 A. 1 just thought, it may be incorrect, I 19 thought the derivation was Cal for California and 20 Idria for the Idria serpentinite. 21 Q. So our record is clear, we have been 22 speaking at this deposition about Coalinga. You 23 mean Coalinga asbestos and we have been speaking 24 of Calidria, and those are one and the same 23 thing, is that correct? 0048 1 Ilgren 2 MR. GERSON: I don't recall that I 3 recall your question referred specifically 4 to Union Carbide Calidria. I think your

5 question was with respect to Calidria 6 generally. 7 A. I would say that there is a Calidria 8 fiber that may have been mined by Union Carbide 9 or JM or Atlas or not mined, just left in the 10 mountain. I use them interchangeably, Coalinga 11 fiber and Calidria fiber, I use them 12 interchangeably, not with reference specifically 13 to Union Carbide. 14 Q. And that's what caused the confusion. 15 A. Right. 16 Q. Yon are aware that there is this 17 serpentine deposit which is the New Idria deposit 18 which is sometimes called the Coalinga deposit, 19 and it's referred to as Coalinga fiber, is that 20 correct? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. In that deposit in California which 23 Trevor Will has visited, as I understand it, 24 there have been over time three operating mines 25 or pits and one is the Union Carbide, one Is the 0049 1 Ilgren 2 Johns-Manville and one is the Atlas, is that 3 correct? 4 A. Probably one or two smaller, but 5 that's correct. 6 Q. When you use the term Calidria, you 7 use that term generically to mean the Calidria 8 deposit, and it could be fiber from actually any 9 of those three commercial mines? 10 A. Yes. 11 Q. In addition to that, and this is maybe 12 what caused the confusion, Union Carbide uses 13 Calidria with a capital C as a trade name or did 14 for some of its asbestos. 15 A. I didn't know. 16 Q. Were you aware of that? 17 A. I don't believe so. 18 Q. Let me back up a little bit and ask 19 you about the unpublished papers, reports or 20 analyses that you have reviewed and you have in 21 your possession that you listed for us, and I 22 want to just run through them and have you 23 briefly describe for me what they are. 24 Let's start, you mentioned Weiss. Is 25 that a report by Dr. William Weiss? 0050 1 Ilgren 2 A. Yes. 3 Q. He is a medical doctor in 4 Philadelphia? 5 A. Yes. 6 Q. Is that a written report?
UCAREF00009337
25
7 A. Yes. 8 Q. Does it deal specifically with this 9 case or does it deal with more general issues? 10 A. Conwcd hygiene, Conwed MDH survey. 11 Q. Is that a commentary or a review or a 12 critique or an analysis ofthe Minnesota 13 Department ofHealth data that's been prepared by 14 Dr. Weiss? 15 A. Yes. 16 Q. Do you know what the date of that is? 17 A. Precisely, no. Recent. 18 Q. Does it take the form ofa letter or a 19 report or 20 A. To be specific, I haven't actually, I 21 don't posess a copy. He and I discussed it I 22 have taken some notes per his various criticisms, 23 but I don't actually physically have a copy of 24 the critique. 25 Q. Do you maintain a copy of the notes 0051 1 Ilgren 2 you have taken per your discussions with 3 Dr. Weiss7 4 A. Yes. 5 Q. In addition to those notes, have you 6 seen any sort of writing prepared by Dr. Weiss in 7 connection with his critique of the Minnesota 8 Department of Health report? 9 A. No. 10 Q. So what you have had is oral 11 conversations with Dr. Weiss7 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. Have the two ofyou actually sat down 14 face to face and discussed his thoughts and 15 critiques of the Minnesota Department of Health 16 report? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. Do you recall when that occurred? 19 A. Months ago. 20 Q; Was it done in connection with this 21 particular lawsuit, in whole or in part? 22 A. In large part 23 Q. In addition to this particular 24 lawsuit, did that conversation concern any other 25 cases, legal cases or claims on which you are 0052 1 Ilgren 2 working concerning the Calidria or Coalinga 3 fiber? 4 A. No, sir. 5 Q. In addition to this lawsuit, have you 6 ever done any consulting work or other type of 7 work in connection with a case or a patient or a 8 claim involving exposure to Calidria fiber?
UCAREF00009338
26
9 A. I believe there was one, but I can't 10 recall the name, a few years ago. 11 Q. Do you recall ifit was a case ofa 12 worker from the Conwed plant? 13 A. No, it wasn't 14 Q. Were you aware of the fact that many 15 of the Conwed workers in cases separate and 16 distinct from this one have brought legal cases 17 for injuries as a result ofexposure to Calidria IS fiber? 19 A. Would you read that back. 20 (The record was read.) 21 A. Not specifically, no. 22 Q. First ofall, are you aware of the 23 fact that in this particular lawsuit, Conwed is 24 suing Union Carbide to try to collect 25 reimbursement for past and future workers 0053 1 Ilgren 2 compensation costs? Are you generally familiar 3 with that claim? 4 A. Yes. 5 Q. What I'm asking is are you aware of 6 separate lawsuits brought by actual workers 7 against Union Carbide separate from this lawsuit 8 where they're trying to seek recovery for 9 injuries they claim were as a result ofexposure 10 to Calidria asbestos? 11 A. No, sir. 12 MR. GERSON: Were you asking if he is 13 aware of the particular cases or aware 14 generally that such cases exist? 15 MR. BROWNSON: That's a good 16 distinction. 17 Q. Were you aware generally that such 18 lawsuits existed? 19 A. No, sir. 20 Q. Have you ever worked on any particular 21 case brought by any worker alleging injury as a 22 result of exposure to Calidria asbestos from 23 Conwed? 24 A. No, sir. 25 Q. Have you ever worked on any cases 0054 1 Ilgren 2 brought by any worker alleging injury as a result 3 of exposure to Calidria asbestos at any other 4 place other than Conwed? 5 A. Yes, sir. 6 Q. Was that the one you just mentioned a 7 minute ago? 8 A. Yes, sir. 9 Q. Do you recall if that was one case or 10 more than one case?
UCAREF00009339
27
11 A. I believe one case. 12 Q. Were you working on behalfof Union 13 Carbide in that case or somebody else? 14 A. Union Carbide. 15 Q. Do you recall where that case was 16 located? 17 A. I think it was Texas. 1 don't recall 18 Q. Do you recall Ifthat case arose out 19 ofa Georgia-Pacific wallboard plant in Texas? 20 Does that ring a bell at all? 21 A. No bells. 22 Q. Do you recall what work it was that 23 you did in connection with that case? 24 A. I don't recall specifically. Just 25 reviewing a lot of medical records, perhaps 0055 1 Ilgren 2 seeing some path slides. 3 Q. Do you recall ifthat case was a 4 mesothelioma? 5 A. No, sir, I don't recall the details. 6 Q. Do you recall if it was a cancer of 7 the larynx? 8 A. I just don't recall. 9 Q. So basically sitting here today, you 10 don't recall what disease was either involved or 11 alleged to be involved in that case? 12 A. No, sir. 13 Q. Do yon recall seeing any tissue in 14 that case, either slides or actual samples of 15 tissue? 16 . A. No, sir. 17 Q. Do you recall seeing any reports from 18 Dr. Pooley in that case? 19 A. No, sir. 20 Q. Do you recall ifDr. Pooley was 21 involved in that case? 22 A. No, sir. 23 Q. Do you recall asking Dr. Pooley or 24 Dr. Gibbs or anyone else to do any fiber burden 25 analysis in that case? 0056 1 Ilgren 2 A. No, sir. 3 Q. Do you know ifeither Dr. Gibbs or 4 Dr. Pooley did any fiber burden analysis in that 5 case? 6 MR. GERSON: I object to relevance. 7 That case is that case and we are here for 8 this case, so I don't quite see the 9 connection. You can answer, but I want to 10 put that on the record. 11 A. No, sir.
12 Q. Other than yourself, are you aware of
UCAREF00009340
28
13 any other consultants who may have been working 14 fbr Union Carbide in that particular case? 13 MR. GERSON: Same objection. 16 A. No, sir. 17 Q. Do yon recall discussing that case 18 with any other consultants who may have been 19 working for Union Carbide? 20 A. No, sir. 21 Q. Do you recall preparing any critiques 22 of the work of anyone else in that case, experts 23 for the plaintiff or other defendants? 24 A. No, sir. 25 Q. Do you know with whom you were working 0057 1 Ilgren 2 on behalfof Union Carbide in that case? 3 A. Yes, sir. 4 Q. Who was that? 5 A. Gary Elliston. 6 Q. Mr. Elliston, is he with Henry 7 Garrard's office? 8 A. No. 9 Q. Where is he from? 10 A. I don't recall. 11 Q. Is he from Texas? 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. Other than that particular case and 14 the present case, have you done any consultation 15 work of any type for Union Carbide in connection 16 with Coalinga asbestos? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. Can you describe for us what that 19 consulting has been or that work has been? 20 A. Yes. Just an ongoing analysis of 21 literature relevant to the biological, physical 22 and chemical characteristics of Calidria. 23 Q. When did that begin? 24 A. On behalf ofUCC? 25 Q. Right, on behalfof UCC 0058 1 Ilgren 2 A. I don't recall exactly. Four years 3 ago, five years ago. 4 Q. So would it be fair to say that by the 5 time you were first retained or did your first 6 consulting in this case, you had already been 7 doing some consulting with Union Carbide in 8 connection with the Calidria asbestos? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. By whom were you retained initially to 11 do that consulting? 12 A. Mr. Gerson. 13 Q. I assume that from time to time you 14 have had discussions with Mr. Gerson about what
UCAREF00009341
29
15 you're doing, you report to him and that sort of 16 thing? 17 A. Occasionally. 18 Q. Other than Mr. Gerson, is there anyone 19 else to whom you have reported concerning your 20 consulting work for Union Carbide with respect to 21 the Calidria asbestos? 22 A. Not that I recall. 23 Q. Are you on some sort of retainer for 24 that work or do youjust do work as requested and 25 then charge for it or how does that work? 0059 1 Ilgren 2 MR. GERSON: Objection. Go ahead and 3 answer. 4 A. As requested. 5 Q. Going back over the four years or so 6 that you have been doing this consulting work, 7 can you describe for me the type ofprojects or 8 work that you have done in connection with the 9 Calidria asbestos? 10 A. It's not a hyper-defined, mandated 11 project Just an ongoing analysis of the 12 biological, physical, and chemical 13 characteristics of Calidria per existent 14 literature. 15 Q. If I could summarize this in a short 16 capsule, which TU attempt to do, would it be 17 fair to say that about four years ago you were 18 asked by Mr. Gerson to monitor the literature 19 concerning Calidria asbestos and stay on top of 20 it and analyze that literature as it comes out? 21 A. Yes, sir. 22 Q. In connection with doing that, as I 23 understand it, you have actually become involved 24 in at least two specific lawsuits, one is this 25 one and one is that one from Texas? 0060 1 Ilgren 2 A. Yes, sir. 3 Q. Other than those two, can you recall 4 any other specific claims or lawsuits which you 5 have been asked to work on in connection with the 6 Calidria asbestos? 7 A. No, sir. 8 Q. Have you been asked to do any 9 laboratory research in connection with the 10 Calidria asbestos? 11 A. No, sir. 12 Q. Have you done any laboratory research 13 in connection with the Calidria asbestos? 14 A. No. 15 Q. Have you requested anyone else to do 16 any research in a laboratory with respect to the
UCAREF00009342
30
17 Calidria asbestos? 18 A. Yes. 19 Q. Who is that? 20 A. Hartwig Muhle. Arthur Morgan. Walter 21 Bastes. DonRimstidt. That's all 1 can recall. 22 Q. Let me just go through those. What 23 did you ask Hartwig Muhle to do? 24 A. To regenerate the Calidria or Coalinga 25 dust cloud in a manner similar to the way he did 0061 1 Ilgren 2 it in 1987. 3 Q. Are you familiar with the paper that 4 he was one of the co-authors on which talked 5 about generating an aerosol dust cloud from, 6 among other things, Calidria asbestos? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. Are you saying that what you asked him 9 to do was do that again? 10 A. Yes. 11 Q. Why did you make that request? 12 A. I wanted to understand why he had only 13 130 foil out of 6 mg/m3. 14 Q. Are you saying in his paper he got 130 15 per foil? 16 A. Circa, about that 17 Q. In his aerosol dust cloud from a 18 certain mass of Calidria fiber? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. Basically you were asking him to 21 replicate that, to see ifthose results would be 22 duplicated or not? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. Did you ask him to use any different 25 technique or the same technique? 0062 1 Ilgren 2 A. Same. 3 Q. Was that done? 4 A. No. 5 Q. Do you have any knowledge or 6 indication that it will be done? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. Is the work underway? 9 A. Perhaps. 10 Q. Do you know ifit is or not? It A. Probably, but I don't know. 12 Q. Do you expect that work is going to be 13 done? 14 A. Yes. 15 Q. In other words you have gotten the 16 go-ahead or given him the go-ahead to do the work
17 and you expect that he is going to do it? 18 A. Yes.

19 Q. Do you expect that there will be any 20 written report generated as a result of that 21 work? 22 A. I don't know. 23 Q. Have you asked him to prepare any 24 report as a result of that work? 25 A. No, sir. 0063 1 llgren 2 Q. Where is he doing this work? 3 A. Hanover, Germany. 4 Q. That's at his laboratory? 5 A. Yes. It's not specifically correct to 6 say he is doing it. He may do it. 7 Q. Where would you expect the work to be 8 done? 9 A. Hanover, Germany. 10 Q. Why are you interested, jumping ahead. 11 why are you interested in the aerosol generated 12 by Muhle? 13 A. It failed to produce any pathological 14 lesions in the rats. 15 Q. You are referring to his inhalation 16 studies? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. From the aerosol generated with a 19 number of materials, including Coatinga asbestos? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. On that topic, you're again speaking 22 of these inhalation studies he did as published 23 in, I think it was published in '88, is that 24 right? 25 A. I have the galley proof he gave me in 0064 1 llgren 2 '87, so it may have come out in '88. I wouldn't 3 be surprised. 4 Q. I have it here, but I'm trying to move 5 along here. He has published once in the peer 6 review medical literature concerning these 7 inhalation data, has he not? 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. So whenever that turns out to be. 10 that's the one we are talking about, around '87 11 orW 12 A. I believe it's only once. I believe 13 that's the case. Annals of Occupational 14 Hygiene. 15 MR. BROWNSON: Muhle, Pott, etal.. 16 Annals of Occupational Hygiene by the 17 British Occupational Hygiene Society. 18 Q. Is that the one we are talking about? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. I highlighted here, it says as a
U CAR E F00009344
32
21 result of a conference in October '86, and the 22 publication date looks like 1987? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. You mentioned that you have asked 25 Dr. Muhle to do some work and we have talked
0065
1 llgren 2 about you requesting that he regenerate this 3 aerosol. Have you asked him to do any other 4 work? 5 MR. GERSON: In relation to Calidria? 6 MR. BROWNSON: Right All these 7 questions deal with Coalinga. 8 A. Possibly finalize the lung burden 9 analysis, same study. 10 Q. When you say possibly finalize, have 11 you actually asked him to do something or you 12 might have asked him and you don't remember? 13 A. I think I asked him and then unasked 14 him and then I can't remember whether we decided 15 to go ahead and ask him again. 16 Q. Do you know ifthat work is underway? 17 A. It's not underway. 18 Q. Do you have any expectation that that 19 work would be done in the next year or so? 20 A. I just don't know. 21 Q. What was it that you were considering 22 when you made that request or may have made that 23 request? What was the question that you were 24 asking? 25 A. Potential retention of Calidria
0066
1 llgren 2 chrysotile in the lung, is it retained. 3 Q. Were you asking that he go back and 4 look at tissue from the rats in his 1986 5 inhalation study? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. Basically you asked him to go look at 8 that same tissue, as opposed to do another 9 inhalation study and take a burden from the new 10 rats? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. Have you asked him to do anything 13 else? 14 A. Not that I recall. 15 Q- You mentioned you have asked Arthur 16 Morgan to do some work. What work have you asked 17 him to do? 18 A. Differential solubility studies. 19 Q. Of what, Calidria fiber as opposed to 20 something else? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. What's the something else?
UCAREF00009345
33
23 A. Other chrysolite types. 24 Q. Have you asked him to do a 25 differential solubility with respect to specific 0067 1 Ilgren 2 other chrysolites such as like a UICC/A or Bor 3 any chrysotile at his discretion or what? 4 A. He counter-proposed with a series of 5 other types. I don't recall which ones. AA,B, 6 F, UICC/B. 7 Q. This is solubility in what medium? 8 A. I think his system is 25 degrees 9 centigrade, 1 normal HCL. 10 Q. Are you aware ofany work that Arthur 11 Morgan has done to date concerning the solubility 12 of Calidria compared to other types of 13 chrysotile? 14 A. No. 15 Q. So when you spoke earlier about papers 16 or reports you have seen from Arthur Morgan, that 17 was something else, this question of solubility 18 of Calidria as opposed to other chrysolites? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. Do you know whether that work has been 21 done yet by Dr. Morgan? 22 A. It has not 23 Q. Do you know if it's underway? 24 A. It's not underway. 25 Q. Do you know ifit will be underway in 0068 1 Ilgren 2 the next year or two? 3 A. It may be, yes. 4 Q. Have you asked Dr. Arthur Morgan to do 5 any other work other than that differential 6 solubility? 7 A. Not that I recall. 8 Q. How about Walter Eastes, who is Walter 9 Eastes? 10 A. He is another in vitro Morgan-type. 11 He works in Ohio. 12 Q. I'm not familiar with him. Where is 13 he located in Ohio? 14 A. I can't remember. Grandville 15 someplace. 16 Q. Is he affiliated with some university? 17 A. I would have to go check. He is a 18 colleague ofArthur Morgan's. He has a 19 physiological system rather than an HCL system 20 for looking at differential solubility. 21 Q. Do you know has he done any work to 22 date with respect to Calidria asbestos of which 23 you're aware? 24 A. No, sir.
UCAREF00009346
34
25 Q. As far as you know, your request to 0069 1 Ilgren 2 him that he do some work with respect to Calidria 3 would be the first work he has done on that 4 fiber? 5 A. Yes, sir. 6 Q. Do you know has that work been done? 7 A. No. 8 Q. Has it been started? 9 A. No. 10 Q. Do you expect it to be started in the 11 next year or two? 12 A. Hopefully. 13 Q. Has Union Carbide given the go-ahead 14 to do that project? 15 A. No, sir. 16 Q. Is this a project that you have 17 requested that Union Caibide undertake or is this 18 something you're doing independently on your own? 19 A. The former. 20 Q. So the request has been made ofUnion 21 Carbide, you just haven't gotten the go-ahead 22 yet? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. Is the same true with the solubility, 25 differential solubility study by Arthur Morgan? 0070 1 Ilgren 2 A. Yes. 3 Q. You havemade the request to Union 4 Carbide but have not yet gotten the go-ahead? 5 A. Yes. 6 Q. Ifyou did get the go-ahead, how long 7 do you anticipate it would be before you get 8 results from either of those two studies? 9 A. I really don't know. Hopefully within 10 a year, but I don't know. 11 Q. I suppose that's dependent on many 12 things, such as how busy they are and that sort 13 of thing. I'mjust asking for some ballpark 14 estimate. 15 A. Sure. 16 Q. You mentioned Don Rimstidt. Can you 17 describe who he is? 18 A. I don't know how you would label 19 Rimstidt, a something-ologist. I don't know 20 whether he is specifically a mineralogist or 21 geochemist, but he models the rate of chrysotile 22 dissolution using certain computer software in 23 his so-called shrinking fiber model. 24 Q. Do you know has he done such modeling 25 to date with respect to Calidria chiysotile? 0071
UCAREF00009347
35
1 Ilgren 2 A. No, sir. 3 Q. Are you aware ofsuch modeling he has 4 done with respect to other types of chiysotile 5 fiber? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. Has that been published work? 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. Is there also unpublished work? 10 A. I assume. 11 Q. Is there any that you have seen? 12 A. No, sir. 13 Q. So what you have seen is his published 14 work concerning modeling ofchiysotile 15 degradation or dissolution? 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. Do you recall ofihand which chiysotile 18 he used? First ofall, was it all Canadian? 19 A. I don't recall whether it was Canadian 20 or Rhodesian. I don't recall 21 Q. That's kind ofa small point, but 22 let's put it this way, do you know if he has 23 done -- when I earlier asked you whether he had 24 done such modeling with respect to Coalinga, I 25 wasn't limiting myself to Union Carbide Coalinga, 0072 1 Ilgren 2 I was limiting myself to the deposit 3 A. Yeah, sure. Yes. 4 Q. So basically ifI can summarize the 5 request you have made of Rimstidt, it's that you 6 would like him to model the dissolution or 7 degradation of Coalinga type chiysotile and 8 compare it with other types that he has modeled? 9 A. Yes, sir. 10 Q. Is that a request that you have made 11 ofUnion Carbide, to do that work? 12 A. Not yet 13 Q. Is that a request that you intend to 14 make? 15 A. Yes, sir. 16 Q. Let me ask you the same question. Do 17 you have any estimate of how long that work would 18 take, ifyou get the go-ahead to do it? 19 A. No, sir. 20 Q. Have we now covered ail of the 21 original topic, laboratory work that you have 22 requested with respect to Coalinga asbestos7 23 Have we now covered it all? 24 A. Off the top of my head, yes. 25 Q. Have you requested any TEM analysis of 0073 1 Ilgren 2 the fiber itself?
UCAREF00009348
36
3 A. Possibly surface microtopography and 4 some other detailed analytical things. 5 Q. ByTEM7 6 A. I don't know what the machine is. 7 It's a form ofelectron microscopy. 8 Q. When you say possibly, have you 9 actually made a request for some work or you 10 can't remember ifyou did or not? 11 A. Request from whom? 12 Q. The original question was have you 13 requested any TEM analysis of Calidria fiber, and 14 you said you might have possibly requested some 15 surface topography analysis. 16 A. I discussed some with Professor Frank 17 Apian at Penn State, and obviously Eric Chatfield 18 in Ontario. 19 Q. So you think you may have discussed it 20 with one or both of those? 21 A. Possibly others. I dont recall. 22 Q. Do you have any record of that? 23 A. Not to my knowledge. 24 Q. Has any such work been done? 25 A. No. 0074 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Do you have any anticipation that it 3 will be done? 4 A. Perhaps. 5 Q. Have you gotten any go-ahead? Have 6 you requested of Union Carbide that such work be 7 done? 8 A. No. 9 Q. So you obviously haven't gotten any 10 go-ahead from Union Carbide to do such work. 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. What question in particular are you 13 looking at with respect to surface analysis of 14 Calidria fiber? 15 A. What am I looking for? 16 Q. Right. 17 A. Anything unusual about the surface. 18 Q. Have you requested that any TEM or 19 other microscopic analysis be done on Calidria 20 with respect to size distribution of the fiber, 21 either in an aerosol or in a wet solution or in 22 any other form? 23 A. Yes, sir. 24 Q. Has that work been done? 25 A. No, sir. 0075 1 Ilgren 2 Q. To whom did you make that request? 3 A. Eric Chatfield. 4 Q. Have you asked Union Carbide for
UCAREF00009349
37
5 authorization to do that work?
6 A. I think so.
7 Q. Do you know if that's been granted?
8 A. I believe so. 9 Q. Do you know if that work has begun?
10 A. It has not
11 Q. Do you anticipate that it will begin
12 within the next foreseeable future?
13 A. Hopefully.
14 Q. What specifically is that project? Is
15 that size distribution in an aerosol or in lung
16 tissue or in a solution or what?
17 A. All three.
18 Q. All three of those forms?
19 A. Yes, sir.
20 Q. Have you provided any lung tissue to
21 Dr. Chalfield for purposes ofdoing that size
22 distribution?
23 A. No, sir.
24 Q. Do you anticipate that he would use
23 tissue from a Conwed worker or from some other
0076
1 Ilgren
2 source to do that?
3 A. Possibly both.
4 Q. Do you have available to you any lung
5 tissue from any Calidria-exposed workers that can
6 be used for that worker?
7 A. No, sir.
8 Q. So ifthat was to be done, you would
9 have to obtain some tissue, would that be fair to
10 say?
11 A. Yes.
12 Q. How would you go about obtaining that
13 tissue, ifyou wanted to go ahead with that
14 project?
15 A. Call Mr. Gerson.
16 Q. Have we now covered the requests for
17 analytical work that you have made with respect
18 to Calidria asbestos, or can you think of
19 anything else?
20 A. At the moment I can't think of
21 anything else.
22 Q. Let's go back to where we originally
23 started this discussion, and that was with
24 respect to the unpublished reports, papers or
25 analyses you have seen with respect to Calidria
0077 1
Ilgren
2 asbestos.
3 Believe it or not, we started this
4 discussion, we covered the Minnesota Department
5 of Health and Dr. Weiss, and that's where we
6 began, so let's go to the next name, Arthur
UCAREF00009350
38
7 Morgan. 8 We have already talked a little bit 9 about Dr. Morgan, but you indicated you have seen 10 some sort of paper or report from him for 11 something other than this dissolution work you 12 have requested him to do. Do you recall what 13 that was? 14 A. Specific to Calidria? 15 Q. Right. 16 A. I don't think I said - was he among 17 the unpublished? 18 Q. Right. 19 A. Take him out He is not unpublished. 20 Q. You have seen unpublished work by 21 Langer. What unpublished work have you seen by 22 Langer? All these questions deal with Calidria 23 asbestos. 24 A. His mineralogy report 25 Q. The mineralogyreport generated in 0078 1 llgren 2 connection with this case? 3 A. Yes. I think that's all. 4 Q. Have you seen any fiber burden 5 analysis oftissue that Langer has generated in 6 any workers exposed to Calidria? 7 A. No, sir. 8 Q. Have you seen any reports or 9 unpublished work by Langer other than his 10 mineralogical analysis in this case? 11 A. No. 12 Q. Next was Kevin Browne. What have you 13 seen from him relating to Calidria? 14 A. You should take him out 15 Q. You told us earlier about discussions 16 you had with Kevin Browne. 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. But are you saying now that you can't 19 recall any specific written reports? 20 A. No, there'would be no reports. 21 Q. Or data from Browne. 22 A. There is someone I forgot, Chwastiak. 23 (Recess taken.) 24 BY MR. BROWNSON: 25 Q. Before we went off the record we had 0079 1 llgren 2 just stricken the name of Kevin Browne from the 3 list ofpeople who have provided you with 4 unpublished reports or papers and you substituted 5 a different name and I didn't catch it. What was 6 that name? 7 A. I wrote it down. It's Chwastiak. 8 Q. I am not familiar with that. Who is
UCAREF00009351
39
9 that? What's his first name?
10 A. Steven.
11 Q- Where is he located? 12 A. Presently?
13 Q. What's his current affiliation? 14 A. I don't know.
15 Q. Is he a medical doctor? 16 A. No.
17 Q. What is he? 18 A. I think he is an analytical chemist.
19 Q. What have you seen from Chwastiak? 20 A. Documents.
21 Q. Are these analytical work with respect 22 to Calidria?
23 A. Yes, analytical work.
24 25 0080 1
Q. Is it chemical analysis? A. Some.
Ilgren
2 Q. Does it deal with dissolution of 3 Calidria?
4 A. Some.
5 Q. Degradation of Calidria? 6 A. Some.
7 Q. How about differential dissolution or 8 degradation compared to other chrysotiles?
9 A. I think so.
10 Q. What form does this work take? Is it 11 a report or tabular data or what is it?
12 A. I think it's just a UCC report
13 Q. When you say a UCC report, it's a 14 report prepared for UCC?
15 A. I believe so.
16 Q. Is this something that was provided to 17 you by Mr. Gerson or did you get this from
18 Chwastiak?
19 A. Gerson.
20 Q. Do you recall when this report was
21 prepared?
22 A. I think 1963.
23 Q. The Chwastiak report, did you
24 understand Chwastiak to be an employee ofUnion
25 Carbide at the time he generated that report?
0081
1 Ilgren
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. So what you saw was a report circa
4 1963 generated by some sort of analytical chemist
5 named Chwastiak concerning the Calidria fiber,
6 would that be a description of what it is?
7 A. Yes.
8 Q. Was that a single report or was that a 9 series of documents or what was that?
10 A. I don't recall.
UCAREF00009352
40
11 Q. The next name you gave me was IITRI. 12 What have you seen by them? 13 A. Analytical studies of Calidria 14 chrysolite. 15 Q. Who is IITRI, what's the name? 16 A. Illinois Institute ofTechnology and 17 Research Institute. 18 Q. So ITTRI is an acronym for Illinois 19 Institute ofTechnology and Research or something 20 along those lines? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. When was this study prepared? 23 A. 1975 through 1984. 24 Q. Was this a series ofanalyses that 25 were done over that time period? 0082 1 Ilgren 2 A. I believe so. 3 Q. What sort ofanalyses were these? 4 A. Physical and chemical analyses. 5 Q. Offiber? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. Was it fiber in any particular medium 8 or circumstance or just fiber? 9 A. I think it would be air, water and 10 animal feed. 11 Q. Animal feed? 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. Do you recall the context in which 14 these studies were performed, why they were being 15 done? 16 A. I believe it was at the request of 17 NIESH. 18 Q. Were these provided to you by 19 Mr. Gerson? 20 A. No. 21 Q. Where did you get that from? 22 A. From IITRI. 23 Q. How did you come to find out about 24 them7 25 A. Indirectly through Hartwig Muhle. 0083 1 Ilgren 2 Q. So in your conversations with Hartwig 3 Muhle, he indicated to you that the IITRI group 4 had done some analytical work? 5 A. No. I asked him where he got his 6 sample for inhalation testing from and he said 7 NIESH, and I asked him for a copy of the NIESH 8 report describing the sample used, and in the 9 NIESH report it said that the material had been 10 prepared by IITRI. 11 Q. Did you then go to IITRI and ask what 12 material they had?
UCAREF00009353
41
13 A. Yes. 14 Q. What they sent you was this series of 15 analytical work done from 1975 to 19847 16 A. Eventually, yes. 17 Q. What was this, was this microscoiiy or 18 chemical analysis? What are we talking about 19 here7 20 A. Microscopy, chemical analysis, XRD, a 21 great number of different. I can't remember them 22 all. 23 Q. XRD is x-ray diffraction? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. Did this report take a narrative form 0084 1 Ilgren 2 or was it tabular data or what did it look like? 3 A. Both text and tables, graphs, figures. 4 Q. What you understood this analysis to 5 be, then, was a sample or samples of Coaiinga 6 asbestos that was then used by Muhle for his 7 aerosol generation? 8 A. One of the samples he had used, yes. 9 Q. Have you ever seen any other NIESH or 10 documents or data concerning Coaiinga asbestos? 11 A. I think so. 12 Q. Have you ever seen the NIESH air 13 measurements of dust at the mill in King City, 14 California done in about 1984 or thereabouts? 15 MR. GERSON: Objection to relevance. 16 Go ahead. 17 A. I think so. I don't recall. 18 Q. I didn't catch your answer. 19 A. Yes, I believe so. 20 Q. Do you have a copy of that in your 21 possession? 22 MR. GERSON: With him today or 23 generally? 24 MR. BROWNSON: Not with him today, but 25 in his possession in Btyn Mawr or wherever. 0085 1 Ilgren 2 A. I'm hesitating because I can't 3 remember whether it was done, I think it was done 4 by NIESH, but ifit was and ifI have it, it 5 would be in Bryn Mawr. 6 Q. When you hesitate, let me ask some 7 broader questions. Do you recall seeing air 8 sampling data from the milt at King City, 9 California from some source and you'rejust 10 trying to remember if there was one from NIESH? 11 A. Exactly. 12 Q. Does some NIESH ofabout 1984 ring a 13 bell and you can't pin it down? 14 A. Yes, sir.
UCAREF00009354
42
15 Q. Other than that data and this I1TRI 16 data, to the extent that that's NIESH data, I 17 guess it realty isn't, is there other NIESH data 18 you have seen concerning Coalinga fiber? 19 A. Not that I recall. 20 Q. Have you spoken to anyone at NIESH 21 about Coalinga fiber? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. Who is that? 24 A. I spoke to Dr. Jean Haartz. I spoke 25 to Dr. Charles Loiboreau. I think they are the 0086 1 Ilgren 2 only two. There may be one or two others. 3 Q. Are they both at NIESH in Cincinnati? 4 A. Yes, I believe they are in Cincinnati. 5 Q. Do you know when you spoke to them? 6 Was that recently or when? 7 A. Last year sometime. 8 Q. Was that done in connection with this 9 case or for other purposes? 10 A. Probably both. 11 Q. Did that generate any sort ofwritten 12 correspondence or notes or documents? 13 A. Some small correspondence. 14 Q. That would be correspondence back and 15 forth between you and those two NIESH doctors? 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. Do you still maintain copies ofthat 18 correspondence? 19 A. I don't know. 20 Q. Ifyou did, would they be in your 21 materials at Bryn Mawr? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q.What was the reason for your inquiry 24 to those doctors? What was the question or the 25 topic that you posed to them? 0087 1 Ilgren 2 A. It was my understanding that IITRI 3 prepared samples for NIESH of both Calidria and 4 non-Calidria chrysolite types that would serve as 5 worldwide standards, and I wanted to track down 6 anyone in the world who had ever done any 7 research on Calidria, so I wanted to try to get a 8 listing from them of everyone in the world to 9 whom they had sent samples. 10 I also wanted to try to clarify 11 exactly what kind of Calidria preparation they 12 had been using. 13 Q. First ofall, are those two men 14 medical doctors or are they industrial 15 hygienists, or who are they? 16 A. I think Jean is a woman, but that's
UCAREF00009355
43
17 not important 18 Q. Those two individuals? 19 A. Yes, individuals; and I think they are 20 both PhJD.'s. 21 Q. What answer did you get to your 22 inquiry to them about who had standardized 23 samples of Calidria fiber for analysis? 24 A. What answer? 25 Q. What did you learn? First of all, had 0088 1 Hgren 2 they done that? 3 A. Had they done what? 4 Q. Had they prepared some standard 5 preparations of Calidria? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. Was that done again for NIESH or for 8 who? 9 A. I don't know why they did it I guess 10 that's just what they do. 11 Q. As long as we are on that topic, I 12 have a paper which you have probably seen 13 entitled "Characterization OfThree Types Of 14 Chrysotile Asbestos After Aerosolization" 15 published in Environmental Research in 1983 by 16 Pinkerton, Arnold, Brody and others. 17 Are you familiar with that paper? 18 A. Yes.
19 Q. In that paper it is said that what 20 they were trying to do was prepare some standard 21 preparations of Coalinga fiber and some fiber 22 from the Jeffrey pit in Quebec for use in 23 experimental research by the National Institute 24 of Environmental Health Sciences. 25 A. That's not exactly correct I don't 0089 1 Ilgren 2 think they were preparing standards. I think 3 they werejust characterizing potential 4 standards. It's semantical. 5 Q. I guess it is kind of semantical, but 6 as you understand it, they were trying to 7 characterize samples, some standard samples that 8 had been prepared ofthese two types of fiber? 9 A. I think they are one and the same. 10 Q. I think we are getting into a semantic 11 argument here, but when you were talking about 12 these two Ph.D.'s at NIESH, as you understand it 13 they were doing the same thing, trying to get 14 some standard samples for -- 15 A. I think theyjust served as a 16 respository so that ifone wants to do some 17 Calidria research, research on Calidria fiber, 18 you call them up. I don't know how one becomes
UCAREF00009356
44
19 aware that they serve as a respositoiy, but say 20 you want a gram or whatever of material to do a 21 study with, you just call them up and say I would 22 like to do this. 23 I guess by analogy to the UICC 24 standard samples, they probably serve as a 25 respositoiy. They had something like 35 0090 1 Ilgren 2 different types ofchiysotile and halfa dozen 3 types of amosite and other fiber types, so this 4 one was CH-29, this one being the Calidria, but 5 they had I think CH-30 was Arizona and CH-27 was 6 something else, so I don't think there was any 7 type of competition. 8 In fact I think the sort of life cycle 9 chain went something like NIESH requests that 10 HTRI serve as outside contractor to characterize 11 a sample of Calidria fiber. I1TRI contacts Union 12 Carbide, requests a sample. Union Carbide sends 13 HTRI material for analysis, HTRI analyzes the 14 sample. 15 It would then go back to NIESH within 16 the respositoiy, and then NIESH - i.e., 17 Pinkerton, et cetera - may wish to use that, or 18 the 25 other groups through the world who made 19 subsequent requests after the respositoiy was set 20 up. 21 I think that's the way it works. 22 Q. So, for instance, ifyou wanted to do 23 some further characterization of Calidria 24 samples, like let's say this project you were 25 talking about with Muhle, is that where you 0091 1 Ilgren 2 anticipate you would go to get samples, that 3 respositoiy at NIESH in Cincinnati? 4 A. Perhaps. 5 Q. Let me ask a different question. 6 Would samples be available at that 7 respositoiy if you requested them for work of 8 that type? 9 A. I believe so. 10 Q. Let me ask one more name. The next 11 name you gave us was Martin. What Martin is 12 that? 13 A. I don't think that's unpublished, I'm 14 sorry. I was mixing there. I think he is 15 published, so let's take him off the unpublished 16 list. 17 Q. Let's put him on the published list. 18 Which Martin is that and what has he published? 19 A. I think his first name is Colin, but I 20 can't remember. I think it was something like
UCAREF00009357
45
21 "Thermographic Aspects Of Chiysotile Asbestos,"
22 Mineral Magazine 1977.
23 Q. Do you understand that one of the
24 types ofchiysotile that was included in that
23 thermographic analysis was Coalinga?
0092
1 Ilgren
2 A. Yes.
3 Q. You say that was published in Mineral
4 Magazine in approximately 1977?
3 A. I think so.
6 Q. Who is Colin Martin, is he a
7 mineralogist?
8 A. I think so.
9 Q. Where is he located or was he at the
10 time he published?
11 A. Oxford.
12 Q. How did you come to find out about
13 that publication?
14 A. From the literature.
15 Q. My search of the literature didn't
16 turn that up, using databases I had. I'm just
17 curious what search you made that turned up that
18 reference.

2 A. I can't recall. I don't recall.
3 Q. But in any event it turned up and it
4 was published, as you recall, and not
5 unpublished, is that fair to say?
6 A. That's correct

23 24 25 0094 1 Ilgren 2 AFTERNOON SESSION 3 {2:20 p.m.) 4 EDWARD B. ILGREN,
5 resumed, having been previously duty sworn,
6 was examined and testified further as 7 follows: 8 EXAMINATION (Cont'd.) 9 BY MR. BROWNSON: 10 Q. When we broke for lunch we were going 11 through the list of individuals you had named 12 from whom you have unpublished material dealing 13 with Coalinga fiber. 14 The next name we had on the list is 15 that of Jean Haartz. You had earlier told us 16 about a Dr. Haartz at NIESH. Is this the same 17 one? 18 A. Yes. 19 Q. The published reports you spoke of 20 earlier from this Dr. Haartz, are those the same 21 standardized preparation reports from NIESH that 22 you mentioned earlier or is it something else? 23 A. The same. 24 Q. Next was Graf. 25 A. Right. 0095 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Who was that? 3 A. She was the research chemist analyst 4 at IITRI who did a lot of the hands-on research. 5 Q. Would the reports where her name 6 appears be the same ones you mentioned earlier, 7 the IITRI studies? 8 A. Right. 9 Q. Next you mentioned Mumpton, Fred 10 Mumpton? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. Do you know what papers or reports you 13 have from Fred Mumpton? 14 A. Again, I think I have a Union Carbide
15 report.
16 Q. Do you recall that this was one or a 17 series of reports he did back in the mid-'60s 18 where he was analyzing the ore from the deposit, 19 or is it something other than that? 20 A. It would be that. 21 Q. Where did you obtain the Mumpton 22 reports, do you know? 23 A. Either from Virginia or Alan. 24 Q. I don't mean to quibble over this
UCAREF00009359
47
25 because it's a small point, but Mumpton has two 0096 1 Ilgren 2 papers that I didn't bring with me that actually 3 saw the light of day in journals. 4 I think they are the same ones you are 5 talking about, but do you recall them being 6 published anywhere or do they appear to you to be 7 unpublished? 8 A. They appear unpublished. 9 Q. Have you seen any published work by 10 Mumpton? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. So this is something other than work 13 you have seen published injournals? 14 A. Yes. 15 Q. Again, do you recall how many reports 16 it is? Is it a couple? 17 A. It's at least one. 18 Q. Ifyou can recall, does that report 19 have in it photographs, I guess it wouldn't be an 20 original photograph, but a photo of, actually I 21 guess it would be a photomicrograph under the 22 electron microscope of the Calidria fiber? 23 A. I can't recall. 24 Q. Do you recall seeing such photos that 25 Mumpton took in the '60s, whether in the 0097 1 Ilgren 2 published papers or in those reports? 3 A. I certainly believe there is a TEM 4 shot in the published papers. I don't recall in 5 this unpublished document 6 Q. Do you have any information as to the 7 date or the approximate time frame when Union 8 Carbide had available in its own laboratories a 9 transmission electron microscope? 10 A. When did they first buy a scope? 11 MR. WILL: An electron microscope. 12 A. No idea. 13 Q. The next name you mentioned was 14 Thickstun. Who was that? 15 A. I think Thickstun was one of the 16 geologists that worked cither independently or 17 with Condor between 1950 and 1957 on the New 18 Idria serpentinite. on the body, and he was the 19 one who met Bill Cohan and Ary. Cohan was the 20 chief geologist for UCC and Ary was the vice 21 president at UCC Nuclear up in Reno, and 22 Thickstun was the one in this kind of 23 semi-anecdotal account, entitled something like 24 Hell's Lid, Asbestos As Hell's Lid, a funny 25 title, but he was just a geologist who describes 0098
UCAREF00009360
48
1 Ilgren
2 the deposit
3 Q. Does it appear to be a description
4 based on his own analysis of things, or is it
5 kind of a historical perspective ofthis?
6 A. It's a mixture of historical analysis, 7 some of his own or his colleagues' analyses. It
8 refers to different samples that he had analyzed
9 because some people say it was mountain leather
10 or an amphibole, but then the report came back
11 that it was only chrysotile, so there is a
12 mixture of historical description, personal
13 analysis and allusion to analyses done by the
14 Department ofMineralogy in California early on
15 in the early '50s.
16 Q. Then you also mentioned Bright. Who
17 was that?
18 A. Bright again was another geologist who
19 wrote this document in 1959, and I can't remember
20 if it's a.UCC document or what 21 Q. So at any rate you got it through
22 Mr. Gerson's office, but you don't know ifit was
23 actually prepared by UCC originally?
24 A. That's correct.
25 Q. Do you know who Bright was affiliated
0099
1 Ilgren
2 with at the time he wrote that report?
3 A. I don't recall.
4 Q. Next you mentioned Addison.
5 A. Yes.
6 Q. Which
Addison is that?
7 A. John.
8 Q. What do you have from John Addison?
9 A. Just a letter.
10 Q. Is this a letter addressed to you or
11 someone else?
12 A. Tome.
13 Q. What's the topic of the letter?
14 A. Just a small discussion of I think
15 Yeager's '83.
16 Q. Is this a paper by Yeager and Kagan
17 and other authors dealing with dosing human
18 macrophages with Calidria and other fibers?
19 A. Yes.
20 Q. Would it be fair to say that what you
21 have is a letter from John Addison written to you
22 commenting on that paper by Yeager?
23 A. Yes.
24 Q. What occasioned Dr. Addison to write
25 you about the paper? Had you sought a critique
0100
1 Ilgren
2 from him or did he send this out unsolicited or
UCAREF00009361
49
3 how did that come into your possession? 4 A. I asked him to critique a certain part 5 of the minerological statement, if I recall, the 6 fiber analysis aspect. 7 Q. Do you recall what you asked him to 8 critique specifically? 9 A. Not at the moment 10 Q. Do you recall what his critique said. 11 what the letter says? 12 A. I have reviewed a lot I would have 13 to have it before me. 14 Q. Next you said Hodgson? 15 A. Yes. 16 Q. What Hodgson is that? 17 A. That's Alan A. Hodgson. 18 Q. What do you have from Hodgson? 19 A. He wrote a small report on sort of his 20 thoughts on Calidria fiber. 21 Q. When you say a small report, is it in 22 the form ofa letter? 23 A. Yes, a letter. 24 Q. It's a letter addressed to whom? 25 A. I think it's to me or for me. 0101
Ilgren Q. Is it a letter in any event that you asked be written by Dr. Hodgson? A. I think hejust said he would put some thoughts down. Q. Was this in response to an inquiry from you? A. We had just been discussing Calidria fiber, what might be peculiar about it Q. You said could you please put some of your thoughts down and he followed that up with writing a letter where he put some of his thoughts down?
MR. WILL: Objection. I think he previously testified it was Alan Hodgson would put some thoughts down.
MR. BROWNSON: I don't follow you there.
MR. WILL: You suggested that Mr. Ilgren had proposed that this be reduced to writing. The earlier answer was that Dr. Hodgson had suggested that
THE WITNESS: That's correct Q. So let's see if I can get the sequence straight. At some point you and Dr. Hodgson were
UCAREF00009362
50
5 after you were first hired by Union Carbide to 6 look into aspects of Caiidria or before that 7 time? 8 A. Probably before. We might have first 9 talked in '87, '88, a long time ago. 10 Q. How was it, as best you can recall, 11 that the subject of Caiidria fiber came up at 12 that conversation? 13 A. In the context of slip fiber. 14 Q. Did this conversation arise in the 15 context where you had some sort ofscientific 16 meeting or assembly or what? 17 A. 1 was asked by Celotex to research the 18 potential biological effects of slip versus cross 19 fiber in '86. 20 Q. Was that in connection with fiber from 21 Carey Canada, the Celotex subsidiary? 22 A. Yes. 23 Q. I assume that Carey was mining some 24 slip fiber in Canada? 25 A. It is slip fiber. 0103 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Do you know what mine or pit that was 3 coming out of? 4 A. Pennington Dike, East Broughton. 5 Q. So ifwe can finish the topic of the 6 Hodgson discussion, you were doing some 7 investigation for Celotex in connection with the 8 Carey Canada slip fiber in about '877 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. Do you know who requested you to do 11 that investigation? 12 A. I think the request came from some 13 senior person at Celotex. 14 Q. Do you know if it came from one of the 15 lawyers at the Montgomery McCracken firm in 16 Philadelphia? 17 A. It came through Phil Vogler, I think. 18 Q. As you can recall, and I know it's 19 going back seven years, was that in connection 20 with some of the asbestos building litigation 21 that Phil was working on for Celotex at that 22 time? 23 A. No, I don't think it was specific to 24 any building litigation. It was a general 25 inquiry because their deposit was largely slip. 0104 1 Ilgren 2 Q. In any event, in conducting that 3 investigation did you contact Dr. Hodgson? 4 A. Yes. 5 Q. The two of you then met? 6 A. Yes.
UCAREF00009363
51
7 Q. He then followed up the meeting with a 8 letter to you? 9 A. This is years ago. I mean we have 10 been friends and colleagues for a long time. 11 Over the last six or seven months or in fact the 12 last couple ofyears I have been talking to him 13 olfand on about Calidria fiber. 14 Q. This particular letter that you 15 mentioned that got this discussion going, I 16 understood that letter was dated at or around 17 1987. 18 A. No, that letter would be quite recent, 19 a few months ago. 20 Q. The next name you gave me was Jordan. 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. What Jordan is that? 23 A. I think he is either an analytical 24 chemist or an engineer, a UCC employee. 25 Q. What report or documents do you have 0105 1 Ilgren 2 from him? 3 A. Commercial properties of Calidria 4 fiber. 5 Q. There were a series of papers put out 6 by UCC people, including Jordan, dealing with the 7 properties of Calidria fiber in three basic 8 industries. One was paper-making, one was 9 plastics and one, I believe, could have been 10 floor tile, but I know one was drilling mud for 11 the oil drilling industry. 12 Do you recall in which context this 13 paper appeared? 14 A. I haven't the details of the papers. 15 I don't recall drilling mud. I don't recall any 16 specific. I think these were more theoretical 17 papers. 18 Q. Let me narrow it down. 19 Do you recall the Jordan paper as 20 dealing with the commercial properties of 21 Calidria asbestos for use in paper-making? 22 A. I believe so. It's more of a guess. 23 MR. WILL: Don't guess. 24 Q. Do you recall the date ofthat paper? 25 A. Mid-'60s. 0106 1 Ilgren 2 Q. The next name is Park. Who is that? 3 A. I think his name is Kisoon Park, 4 another UCC scientist working on Calidria fiber 5 for quite some time. 6 Q. This was another of this series of 7 Union Carbide papers dealing with Calidria fibcr7 8 A. Yes.

9 Q. Then you mentioned Woolery, Robert 10 Woolery? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. - What do you have from him? 13 A. Again other papers describing 14 commercial applications. 15 Q. Morgan in particular wrote a paper or 16 authored a paper called "The Use of Coalinga in 17 the Paper-Making Process." Do you have a copy of 18 that? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. Are there others that you can recall 21 other than that? 22 A. Not by detailed title, but I do recall 23 others. 24 Q. Would it be fair to say that you have 25 more than one Woolery paper but you don't know 0107 1 Hgren 2 how many? 3 A. Unpublished or published? 4 Q. Unpublished. 5 A. I think I have more than one. 6 Q. Do you have any published material by 7 Woolery? 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. Do you recall what the published 10 papers are that you have? 11 A. I think one is the TAPPI paper. I 12 think that's Technical Applications of the Paper 13 and Pulp Institute, whatever. The otherjournals 14 don't immediately spring to mind. 15 Q. Next you mentioned Dresher. 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. What is that? What do you have? 18 A. Who is he? 19 Q. Okay, who is Dresher? 20 A. Dresher again was an analytical 21 chemist who worked for UCC. 22 Q. Do you have a paper that he authored? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. Is there more than one orjust one? 25 A. I believe there is more than one. 0108 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Do you recall ifany of those papers 3 deal with the properties or the use of Coalinga 4 fiber in the paper-making process? 5 A. I believe so, but I'm not sure. 6 Q. Then the final name you gave us is 7 Nauman. 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. What do you have from Nauman? 10 A. He worked with Dresher. Again I have
UCAREF00009365
53
some unpublished papers. Q. Let me turn to a different topic.
That's your CV. Let's mark a copy of a CV which Mr. Will provided to me about a month ago, recently.
(Ilgren Exhibit 1, Ilgren CV, marked for identification, as of this date.)
(Ilgren Exhibit 2, Ilgren CV, marked for identification, as of this date.)
(Ilgren Exhibit 3, Ilgren CV, marked for identification, as of this date.) Q. Let's look at Exhibit 1. We have marked as Exhibit 1 a curriculum vitae that has a date stamp ofMay 3, 1994 on it, which is an undated CV.
Ilgren Is this an up-to-date CV7 A. It looks fairly up to date. Q. This date stamp on the front, I assume that's a date stamp, it's not one from my office but maybe from Mr. Will's office? MR. WILL: No, it's not from my office. Q. Do you know where that came from? A. No. Q. Would it be fair to say that this is up to date at least as ofMay 5,1994? A. Yes. Q. Is there anything since that time that we should add to this or change? A. I would have to go through it in detail Not off the top of my head, no. Q. I would like to go through a few things on the CV in Exhibit 1. First of all, is this a CV that you prepared yourself? A. Yes. Q. It indicates that you have an M.A. from Oxford? A. Yes.
Ilgren Q. An M.D. from where? A. Hahnemann. Q. Then it says D.Phil. from Oxford? A. Yes. Q. Then MACPath.7 A. American Board ofPathology. Q. And the last reference is MRCPath.? A. Royal College, sort of the English equivalent to boards in neuropathology. Q. What does MRCPath. stand for? A. Member of the Royal College of
UCAREF00009366
54
13 Pathology.
14 Q. On the second page of the CV there is
15 the heading "Education."
16 The first category is "Institute and
17 Location," and then it says in the second column
18 "Degree and Field of Study," and third is "Year
19 Confirmed." Do you see that?
20 A. Yes.
21 Q. That indicates you got an M.D.from
22 Hahnemann in 1974, is that correct?
23 A. Right.
24 Q. Then the secondthing on there is
25 American College of Pathology.
0111
1
Ilgren
.
2 A. That would be Board certification.
3 Q. Then ifyou look at degree and field
4 of study under that one, it says MACPath. Does
5 that stand for Member, American College of
6 Pathology?
7 A. In England, this CV was written
8 largely for English people, so they don't have
9 boards of some specialty. They have colleges of
10 specialties. Instead of getting the boards, you
11 get a membership, so I was trying to Anglicize
12 this for people to understand in Europe and in
13 England rather than America.
14 Q. So what this reference refers to is
15 that you're Board-certified in pathology in the
16 United States?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. It doesn't refer to the fact that
19 you're a member of the American College of
20 Pathologists?
21 A. Yes, that's true.
22 Q. Was my statement correct, you're not a
23 member of the American College of Pathologists?
24 A. I guess it's a diplomate of the
25 American Board ofPathology.
0112
1 Ilgren
2 Q. I'm not Hying to make a big
3 distinction here, but in this country in the
4 United States you can be Board-certified in
5 pathology, which is something that comes from,
6 actually I guess it's down in Tampa or someplace,
7 the Board certificatioa
8 A. Chicago.
9 Q. But then there also is an American
10 College ofPathologists?
11 A. Really?
12 Q. I guess what I'm getting is what this
13 indicates is you're Board-certified?
14 A. Correct.
UCAREF00009367
55
15 Q. It's not an indication that you're a 16 member of the American College of Pathologists? 17 A. I didn't even know there was a College IS of Pathologists. 19 Q. It indicates here that the Institute 20 is the American College of Pathology. 21 A. I should correct that The American 22 boards. 23 Q. The next is University of Oxford, 24 D.Phil. from Oxford University in England? 25 A. Yes. 0113 1 Ilgren 2 Q. 1980? 3 A. Yes. 4 Q. That was in the field of 5 zoology/biology? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. I'm going tojump ahead, but the last 8 entry, University of Oxford M.A.? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. In biology and medicine, 1983? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. My question is how come you got the 13 D.Phil., which I shouldn't call a Ph.D., before 14 the M.A.? 15 A. It's an M.A. that's conferred, it's 16 not a thesis M.A. where you write a treatise or 17 something. It's a degree which they give you as 18 a senior member of the university so that you can 19 vote in university matters so you can be a thesis 20 adviser. It's not equivalent to going to 21 Columbia to do a master's in art history or 22 something. 23 Q. So would it be fair to say that that 24 is a degree from Oxford in 1983 that was not as a 25 result ofa specific dissertation or course of 0114 1 Ilgren 2 study that you took? 3 A. Yes. 4 Q. It was like a conferred degree of some 5 sort? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. Then the next entry on there is Royal 8 College of Pathology. 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. 1982? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. It says under degree and field of 13 study, MRCPath. neuropathology. What does that 14 stand for? 15 A. That's the Royal College of 16 Pathologists membership, which again you sit down
UCAREF00009368
56
17 and take your exam and look at slides. It's the 18 same as the American boards of neuropathology. 19 Q. That was obtained in 19827 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. It indicates degree. That's not 22 actually a degree, is it? Isn't that, it's 23 similar to American Board-certification in 24 pathology? 25 A. My understanding in England is that's 0115 1 Ilgren 2 a degree. In this country it wouldn't be a 3 degree. I guess it's definitional, sort of. 4 Q. Did you earn any degrees since 1983? 5 A. No. 6 Q. Would it be fair to say that the last 7 earned degree would be the D.Phil. you got from 8 Oxford in 1980? 9 A. By American standards. 10 Q. Up until that time, had you treated 11patients with any asbestos-related disease? 12 A. Say that again. 13 Q. Up until 1980, had you treated 14 patients with asbestos-related disease? 15 A. Treatment in the broadest sense of 16 having looked at any slides from asbestos-related 17 disease cases or whatever? 18 Q. Let's back up. I understand that you 19 received your medical degree in 1984 and the 20 degree was - 21 A. 1974. 22 Q. At that time, that was what's known as 23 an M.D., a medical degree, correct? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. Was it in any particular specialty at 0116 1 Ilgren 2 that time? 3 A. You don't specialize in that 4 Q. Let's start there. My point is as of 5 the time that you got out ofHahnemann, received 6 your degree in 74 ofM.D., up until that time in 7 your medical school training had you ever 8 actually treated patients with any 9 asbestos-related disease? 10 A. Had I ever seen anybody with an 11 asbestos-related disease in medical school? 12 Q. Right. 13 A. Probably, but I don't recall. 14 Q. Then after 1974 and until 1980 you 15 were involved in various residencies or programs 16 of one sort or another in this country and in 17 England and you got this D.Phil. degree in 18 zoology and botany in 1980, would that be a
UCAREF00009369
57
19 thumbnail summary for that time period? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. Would it be fair to say that what you 22 were studying during that time period was 23 neuropathology or not? 24 A. 1974 to UO, not at alL 25 Q. So up until 1980 you were not involved 0117 1 Ugren 2 in the field of neuropathology? 3 A. No, except for maybe two months of my 4 residency. 5 Q. At what point in the residency and 6 where were you involved in neuropathology? 7 A. I did my residency at Cornell here in 8 the city and as part ofthe anatomic pathology 9 residency you do two months of neuropathology, 10 two months of pediatric pathology, ten months of 11 surgical pathology, eight months of autopsy 12 pathology. I can't remember. A month or two of 13 psychological pathology. 14 Q. This resume indicates that you are a 15 member of the faculty ofbiological and 16 agricultural sciences at University of Oxford? 17 A. That's correct 18 Q. Is that true today? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. But you don't live in England at the 21 present time? 22 A. No. 23 Q. Where do you currently reside? 24 A. Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. 25 Q. Is that your office location? 0118 1 Ilgren 2 A. Office and home. 3 Q. What's your office address? 4 A. Department 503,830 Montgomery Avenue, 5 Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania. 6 Q. How long have you had your office at 7 that address at Bryn Mawr? 8 A. About two years now. 9 Q. Do you still maintain an office in 10 Oxford? 11 A. No. 12 Q. How is it, I'm not up to date on the 13 English system, but how is it you're still on the 14 faculty at Oxford when you haven't lived there 15 for two years? 16 A. It's a more liberal system. I mean 17 it's not an appointment where I have to do a set 18 number of teaching hours or administration or 19 anything of that sort. It's more a question of 20 just continuing on with research and writing. I
UCAREF00009370
58
21 had planned to go back next year. I suppose 22 there was a question of going back, so it makes 23 sense. 24 Q. Is there a certain time period that 25 you can be away from the University ofOxford and 0119 1 Ilgren 2 still be on the faculty? 3 A. I would imagine five or six years. 4 Q. In other words they haven't said to 3 you get bade here by next year or we are going to 6 kick you off the faculty? 7 A. No. 8 Q. The faculty that you're on, as I 9 understand it, is the biological and agricultural 10 sciences? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. Is that a particular school or college 13 at Oxford? 14 A. I guess you could compare it to the 15 school of dentistry or the school of medidne or 16 the school ofbiology or whatever. 17 Q. Is there any separate and distinct 18 school of medicine at Oxford? 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. So this faculty, then, is not in the 21 school of medidne? 22 A. No. 23 Q. It's in a different school? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. Is St. Edmund Hall a specific school 0120 1 Ilgren 2 at Oxford? 3 A. That's one of the 38 colleges at the 4 university. 5 Q. Is the faculty ofbiological and 6 agricultural sciences only within St Edmund Hall 7 or does it cross within several of those 8 colleges? 9 A. It crosses within all colleges. 10 Q. So see if I have this straight 11 You're a member of St Edmund Hall? 12 A. Correct 13 Q. What specifically docs it mean when 14 they say you are a member of one of the colleges 15 at Oxford? 16 A. You have to be a member ofa college 17 to be a member of the university. That'sjust I 18 suppose, a formality. It's your college. They 19 are separate. The college system to some extent 20 is separate from the faculty. 21 Q. So when you say it's your college, 22 that's the college where you received your
UCAREF00009371
59
23 degree, for example? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. Was St. Edmund Hall? 0121 1 Ilgren 2 A. Yes. 3 Q. In describing your current faculty 4 position, would it be fair to say you're on the 5 faculty of St Edmund Hall? 6 A. No. 7 Q. You're on the faculty ofbiological 8 and agricultural sciences? 9 A. Yes. 10 Q. And you're affiliated, then, with the 11 college of St Edmund Hall? 12 A. Yes. 13 Q. Do you have a term or is there a word 14 or description that they use to describe that 15 affiliation with St Edmund Hall? 16 A. Just a research fellow or research 17 scientist 18 Q. Do you have any laboratory or research 19 facilities at St Edmund Hall College? 20 A. No. 21 Q. Do they pay you any sort offaculty 22 salary there? 23 A. No. 24 Q. So when they say you're a research 25 fellow or research scientist that's a voluntary 0122 1 Ilgren 2 position? 3 A. More or less, yes. 4 Q. Do you have to pay anything like 5 tuition to maintain that position? 6 A. No. 7 Q. You'rejust there. They don't pay 8 you, you don't pay them, you just hold that 9 position? 10 A. Yes. 11 Q. Are you required to do any certain 12 work to maintain that position at St. Edmund 13 Half? 14 A. No. 15 Q. Do you do any teaching at the college 16 of St Edmund Hall? 17 A. Not at the moment. 18 Q. When is the last time you did any 19 teaching at that college. St. Edmund Hall? 20 A. University teaching between 1980 and 21 1985 was the last time I did formal teaching. 22 Q. At St. Edmund Hall or anywhere at 23 Oxford? 24 A. It would be at the University Medical
UCAREF00009372
60
25 School. 0123 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Oxford University MedicalSchool? 3 A. Yes. 4 Q. Are you required (o do any research to 5 be on the faculty of St Edmund Hall? 6 A. No. 7 Q. How about to be on the faculty of 8 biological and agricultural sciences? 9 A. That's the principal duty, just to do 10 your research. 11 Q. Here you hear the term or phrase 12 "publish or perish" in American colleges. Is 13 there such a concept at Oxford, where you are 14 required to do so much publication? 15 A. Obviously they like you to keep 16 publishing. I would say that's important 17 Q. So is there any particular requirement 18 or is it kind of an unspoken rule? 19 A. I suppose it's unspoken. 20 Q. You say you're supposed to continue to 21 do your research. What research are you 22 currently doing as a member of the faculty of 23 biological and agricultural sciences? 24 A. I look into fiber type differences for 25 different forms of asbestos, different forms of 0124 1 Ilgren 2 zeolite. The research is indicated in the CV, 3 page - the research experience is outlined on 4 page 6,7 and 8 and the sorts of things I have 5 been doing lately are outlined at the end of 6 page 8-1. 7 MR. BROWNSON: Let's mark this as 8 Exhibit 4. 9 (Ilgren Exhibit 4, letter dated 25 10 April 1994, Moss to "Dear Sir or Madam," 11 marked for identification, as of this date.) 12 Q. We have marked as Exhibit 4 a letter 13 that I received or actually I had my paralegal 14 receive because Fm unfamiliar with the system at 15 Oxford. I made an inquiry as to your faculty 16 position and I received this letter of April 25, 17 1994 firom P.W. Moss. 18 Do you know who that is? 19 A. I have no idea. 20 Q. It indicates he is the head clerk. Do 21 you know what that position is? 22 A. I guess it's one of those antiquated 23 titles that they have in the administration. 24 Q. Here it says Dr. Ilgren, paraphrasing, 25 was a member of the university staff from 1984 to 0125
UCAREF00009373
61
1 Ilgren 2 1987 when he left. 3 Do you know why it is (hat the head 4 clerk at Oxford would indicate that you left in 5 19877 6 MR. GGRSON: Left what? 7 MR. BROWNSON: Oxford. 8 MR. WILL: It doesn't say that in the 9 letter. 10 MR. GERSON: Why he left the 11 university staff specifically? 12 MR. BROWNSON: Right. It says he was 13 a member of the university staff from 1984 14 to 1987, when he left. 15 Q. Did you leave the university staffat 16 Oxford in 19877 17 A. It's news to me. 18 Q. Then he says "I do not have a 19 forwarding address." 20 Is it your testimony that at all times 21 since 1987 you have had an address of some sort 22 at Oxford? 23 A. Well, I have gotten mail from 24 St. Edmund Hall, so 1 assume, and I have sent 25 letters to SL Edmund Hall. 0126 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Have you actually had an office at 3 Oxford since 1987 at any time? 4 A. I was working with the Imperial Cancer 5 Research Fund and I assume that was my base until 6 at least 1989. I would have to go and check the 7 dates. 8 Q. Is the Imperial Cancer Research Fund a 9 school or college of Oxford or is that something 10 else? 11 A. It's in the Nuffield Department of 12 Clinical Medicine. It was under Richard Peto. 13 Q. So it's your testimony that since 1987 14 you have had an office address at the Imperial 15 Cancer Research Fund in that department at 16 Oxford? 17 A. Up until I would say 1989. Again, I 18 would have to check the dates. 19 Q. Then he goes on to say "He was a 20 member of St. Edmund Hall within the University. 21 I suggest you contact the College Office for 22 possible farther information." 23 I read this to mean that as of 24 April 24, 1994 you were no longer a member of 25 St. Edmund Hall, is that a fair statement? 0127 1 Ilgren 2 MR. WILL: Are you asking him is that
UCAREF00009374
62
3 what he thinks Moss is saying or are you 4 asking him whether it's a fact that he was 5 no longer a member of the university staif 6 as of'877 7 Q. I will rephrase the question. As of 8 April 23, 1994, were you a member of St. Edmund 9 Hall within the university? 10 A. I believe so, but as I say, I didn't 11 know any dilferently. 12 Q. When you say you believe so, did you 13 actually have a physical office with a desk and 14 chair and that sort of thing? 15 A. No. 16 Q. Did you have like a post office box or 17 what would it be? 18 A. Just a member of the college. If 19 you're not living there, you don't keep a post 20 box or mailbox. 21 Q. So is it your testimony that you were 22 a member of the College ofSt Edmund Hall as of 23 April 25, 1994 but you weren't physically present 24 there? 25 A. Yes. 0128 1 Ilgren 2 Q. You were in Bryn Mawr, Pennsylvania? 3 A. Yes. 4 Q. T really don't understand this Oxford 5 system, but is it fair to say or is it your 6 testimony that you are currently a member of the 7 staff at St. Edmund Hall? 8 A. The college staff, again accepting 9 that this is a different system, but the college 10 staff I would interpret as ten or twelve 11 so-called fellows or dons that would have the 12 principal teaching responsibilities at the 13 college. They would give tutorials or lectures. 14 So I would not be college staff. 15 Q. So you're not one of those people who 16 teach on the staffof the college. 17 A. No. 18 Q. You never have been? 19 A. No. 20 Q. Do you currently do any teaching in 21 the medical school at Oxford? 22 A. No. 23 Q. Have you ever done teaching in the 24 medical school at Oxford? 25 A. Yes. 0129 1 Ilgren 2 Q. When was the last time you did that 3 teaching? 4 A. I think I said the teaching was done
UCAREF00009375
63
5 between 1980 and '85.
6 Q. Since that time have you presented any
7 lectures in the medical school at Oxford?
8 A. No.
9 Q. In your current position you testified
10 you're on the faculty ofbiological science. I
11 have seen that expressed both as biological
12 science and biological and agricultural science.
13 Do you know which one it actually is?
14 A. Perhaps they dropped. It used to be
15 BAS. I think now it'sjust biological science.
16 Q. In that capacity are you actually a 17 fellow or a don, as you have described it?
18 A. No.
19 Q. Do you have an actual title in terms 20 of what you are? Do they call you something?
21 A. No.
22 Q. You just say you're on the faculty? 23 A. Yes.
24 Q. Are you a senior lecturer? 25 A. No.
0130
1 Ilgren
2 Q. Have you ever been a senior lecturer? 3 A. 1 was a senior registrar who gave
4 lectures, but the title ofsenior lecturer is a
5 very specific title.
6 There were times when people might
7 refer to me as a senior lecturer, but the
8 neuropathology position was senior registrar. I
9 gave lectures and sometimes one could be termed a
10 senior lecturer.
11 Q. There actually is a title there called
12 senior lecturer, correct?
13 A. I believe so.
14 Q. My question is. I guess it's a simple
15 question, have you actually held that faculty
16 title of senior lecturer?
17 A. I don't believe so.
18 (Ilgren Exhibit 5, excerpt from
19 Official ABMS Directory of Board-Certified
20 Medical Specialists 1994, marked for
21 identification, as of this date.)
22 Q. I show you Exhibit 5. This is a
23 photocopy ofa title page and a reference from
24 the Official ABHS Directory ofBoard-Certified
25 Medical Specialists 1994.
0131
1 Ilgren
2 Are you familiar with that particular
3 work or that reference guide?
4 A. Not really.
5 Q. This is a reference to American
6 Board-certified specialists. Have you ever seen
UCAREF00009376
64
7 that before that you can recall? 8 A. Something similar, probably. 9 Q. What I have attached is the page where 10 your reference appears in the 1994 edition, which 11 is the 26th edition. 12 It states that current hospital 13 appointment is Radcliffe Inlirmary at Oxford, 14 United Kingdom. Was that true in 1994? 15 A. No. 16 Q. Then it says senior lecturer, 17 University of Oxford. Was that true in 1994? 18 A. No. 19 Q. Then under that there is some 20 designations. The first one is BSN. Do you know 21 what that stands for? 22 A. I think it's British Society of 23 Neuroscientists. 24 Q. Is that a society that you're a member 25 of, was or are? 0132 1 Ilgren 2 A. British Society of Neuropathologists, 3 yes, I was a member of that. 4 MR.GERSON: Let's take a two-minute 5 break. 6 (Recess taken.) 7 BY MR. BROWNSON: 8 Q. We were looking at Exhibit 5. Again 9 looking at this entry, and I'm trying to 10 interpret what this means, the first entry there 11 is Certificate Path. AP '77. Do you know what 12 that refers to? 13 A. That's Board certification in 14 pathology, 1977. 15 Q. As I look at Exhibit 1, which is the 16 CV, it indicates you were Board-certified in 17 1976. Do you know which one is correct? 18 A. I would have to go back and check. It 19 was the end of 76 or '77. 20 Q. So sitting here today, you don't know 21 ifyou received your Board certification in 22 pathology in 1976 or 1977? 23 A. It might be'77. 1 would have to go 24 back and check. 25 Q. But you don't know which one it is 0133 1 Ilgren 2 without checking? 3 A. No, I'll check. 4 (ilgren Exhibit 6. fax, St. Edmund 5 Hall to Waskosky, marked for identification, 6 as of this date.) 7 Q. I show you Exhibit 6, a letter 8 addressed to Renee Waskosky, my paralegal, from
UCAREF00009377
65
9 Mr. Gosling, principal, St. Edmund Hall, Oxford. 10 A. I just got a letter from him 11 yesterday. 12 Q. As you can see, this was in response 13 to a followup from the previous exhibit where it 14 said inquire of St. Edmund's Hail. 15 Gosling writes -- first ofall can you 16 read what he wrote? Have you read it? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. Is that all correct, what he says 19 there? 20 A. It's correct I thought it was that I 21 am a member, but it looks like the membership 22 lapsed. 23 Q. So ifGosling claims that as of 24 April 28,1994 you are not a member of the 25 faculty ofbiological sciences, would that be 0134 1 Ilgren 2 news to you? 3 A. Yes. I believe so. 4 (Ilgren Exhibit 7, letter dated 8 5 April 1994, Roberts to Waskosky, marked for 6 identification, as of this date.) 7 Q. Would you look at Exhibit 7. This is 8 a faxed letter of April 25,1994 to my paralegal, 9 Renee Waskosky, from Professor Roberts, 10 Registrar, Royal College ofPathologists in 11 London, Patron, Her Majesty, the Queen. 12 Specifically I want to draw your 13 attention to the second paragraph where it 14 indicates that you're an associate member of the 15 Royal College of Pathologists. Is that a correct 16 statement? 17 A. Right, that's what it says here on the 18 front of the CV. 19 Q. Then it says you gained exemption in 20 October 1981 from the first part of the 21 membership examination, the primary, is that 22 correct? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. It says the exemption was granted on 25 the basis ofyour publications in the 0135 1 Ilgren 2 pathological field. 3 A. Yes. 4 Q. Do you know what those publications 5 were that allowed you to get the exemption from 6 the primary examination? 7 A. The first 25 or 30 papers that 1 8 wrote. 9 Q. So would it be fair to say it would be 10 those papers which would show up on your CV as
UCAREF00009378
66
11 published papers as of 1981? 12 A. It would have to be. 13 Q. I'm looking at the list of 14 publications on your CV which is Exhibit 1, and 15 that appears at page 12. I see that before 16 October of '81, and the dates aren't entirely 17 clear, there could be or there are, it appears, 18 nine papers, references 1 through 9, is that 19 correct? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. Do any of those papers deal with the 22 issue ofasbestos or, deal with any issues 23 pertaining to asbestos? 24 A. No. 25 Q. Going back to Exhibit 7, which is the 0136 1 Ilgren 2 letter from Professor C. Roberts, do you know who 3 that is? 4 A. No. 5 Q. It says "The status of Associate is 6 entirely optional on the part ofthe applicant 7 It does not permit entitlement to designated 8 initials such as ARCPath. but does allow the 9 holder to receive the quarterly mailings ofthe 10 College." 11 A. I think that should be MRCPath. 12 Q. Do you agree with that statement? 13 A. Again, that's news to me, but I would 14 be happy to drop it 15 Q. I notice that that designation does 16 appear on the cover page ofyour CV, correct? 17 A. Right, as associate in neuropathology. 18 Q. So would it be your testimony that at 19 various times since October of 1981 you have used 20 the designated initials MRCPath. on various CVs 21 and designations and publications? 22 A. Sure. 23 (Ilgren Exhibit 8. excerpt from 24 Directory of Royal College of Pathologists, 25 marked for identification, as of this date.) 0137 1 Ilgren 2 Q. We have marked as Exhibit 8 a 3 photocopy I have taken of the cover and an entry 4 from the Royal College ofPathologists Directory 5 of 1993. It lists your entry as Dr. E.B. Ilgren 6 and then it lists last known address at care of 7 Harvard Club, New York City, New York, New York. 8 Would it be fair to say that as of 9 that date you had no address at Oxford, at least 10 with the Royal College of Pathologists? 11 A. Yes, I imagine. I don't know how the 12 Harvard Club of New York got here.
UCAREF00009379
67
13 Q. Do you know how come they wouldn't 14 have been at your office in Bryn Mawr? 15 A. They just sent me a bill last week for 16 annual membership, so I'm not quite sure why 17 not. I'll be sure to tell them. 18 MR. WILL: The billing office has the 19 right address. 20 Q. Did you ever during the time period 21 1993 or before reside at the Harvard Club of New 22 York City? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. When was that? 25 A. I must have been there for two and a 0138 1 Ilgren 2 half, three months in 1991 sometime. 3 Q. Were you actively engaged in any 4 research projects while you were living at the 5 Harvard Club of New York? 6 A. I was doing research with or for 7 W.R. Grace. Actually physically having a lab in 8 the club, are you asking? 9 Q. Let me put the question this way. At 10 the time you were residing at the Harvard Club of 11 New York, my question is what, ifany, research 12 were you engaged in during that time period? 13 A. I was going through documents 14 concerning vermiculite and tremolite for 15 W.R. Grace and documents and animal studies for 16 Carborundum Corporation, ceramic fiber material. 17 I can't remember all the research I 18 was doing at the time. 19 Q. Would it be fair to say you didn't 20 have any laboratory facilities or office 21 facilities at the Harvard Club? 22 A. Yes, that's true. 23 Q. Since 1985 has there been any office 24 or laboratory of any kind at any college or 25 department at Oxford that has been yours? 0139 1 Ilgren 2 A. Personally mine? 3 Q. Right. In other words where it would 4 say on the door Dr. E.B. Ilgren? 5 A. No. 6 Q. When did you actually physically move 7 your address from England to the United States? 8 A. I sold my house, which was at 13 9 Frenchay Road. Oxford, trying to think ofwhen 10 the completion date was. I think it was 1992 when 11 it was officially sold. 12 Q. Since that time have you had any 13 office or laboratory facilities other than the 14 apartment in Bryn Mawr in the United States?
UCAREF00009380
68
15 A. No. 16 Q. Would you agree with me that the 17 principal organization of Board-certified 18 pathologists in the United States is the College 19 of American Pathologists? 20 A. You mean the boards of -- 21 Q. Let me back up. 22 A. We went through this business about 23 boards. 24 Q. I understand, but this is a different 25 question. Let me back up and rephrase it. 0140 1 Ilgren 2 Would you agree that the principal 3 organization of Board-certified pathologists in 4 the United States is the College ofAmerican 5 Pathologists? 6 A. I don't understand it 7 MR. WILL: I don't either. 8 (The record was read.) 9 MR. WILL: Are you asking him do most 10 Board-certified pathologists belong to the 11 American College of Pathologists? Are you 12 asking him does the American College give 13 the Board-certification exam? 14 MR. BROWNSON: No. 15 Q. We have already established that you 16 are a Board-certified pathologist in the States 17 and you are not a member of the American College 18 of Pathologists in the United States. 19 A. Yes. 20 Q. My question now is finishing that 21 topic, would you agree that the American College 22 of Pathologists is the principal organization of 23 Board-certified pathologists in the United 24 States? 25 MR. WILL: What do you mean by 0141 1 Ilgren 2 "organization of"? That's why I'm asking 3 the question, do you mean that most 4 Board-certified pathologists belong to that 5 organization? 6 Q. Would you agree to that statement? 7 A. I don't know. 8 Q. You do know what the American College 9 ofPathologists is? 10 A. Not exactly. 11 (Ilgren Exhibit 9. excerpt from CAP 12 Directory, marked for identification, as of 13 this date.) 14 Q. I show you now Exhibit 9. which is a 15 photocopy of the cover and certain entries from 16 the 1994 directory of the College of American
UCAREF00009381
69
17 Pathologists. On the cover it reads "The mission 18 of the College of American Pathologists, the 19 principal organization of BoaFd-certiiied 20 pathologists, is to represent the interests of 21 pathologists, patients and the public by 22 fostering excellence in the practice ofpathology 23 worldwide." 24 Do you see that statement? 25 A. Yes. 0142 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Having read that, do you agree with 3 the statement contained on the 1994 Directory of 4 the College ofAmerican Pathologists that they 5 are the principal organization ofBoard-certified 6 pathologists? 7 MR. WILL: I object to the question. 8 You're asking him to agree with something on 9 the basis of having read a self-serving 10 statement on this and that's entirely 11 inappropriate. He has no foundation to 12 agree or disagree with the self-serving 13 statement of this group. 14 MR. BROWNSON: Regardless of the 15 objection, I would like an answer. 16 THE WITNESS: Would you repeat the 17 question. 18 (The record was read.) 19 MR GERSON: I also object to 20 ambiguity and vagueness. The problem is no 21 one is saying what they mean by the word 22 "principal" in this case, so I don't see 23 how the witness has a basis for agreeing or 24 disagreeing without further explication or 25 definition. 0143 1 Ilgren 2 A. If that's what they say. You might 3 argue with the College of American Pathologists. 4 Q. Let's go back to your CV. First of 5 all. since you have been at Bryn Mawr, 6 Pennsylvania, as I understand it, you have no 7 laboratory facilities at the apartment in Bryn 8 Mawr, correct? 9 A. Yes. A microscope. 10 Q. What type of microscope is that7 11 A. A Bausch & Lomb. Just a light 12 microscope. 13 Q. Going back to the CV on page 1 where 14 it says "Chronology ofResearch and Professional 15 Experience," this is Exhibit 1. it indicates that 16 you got your doctorate of medicine in 1971. Is 17 that correct? 18 A. No, that's '74.
UCAREF00009382
70
19 Q. That should be 1974?
20 A. Yes. That's a mistake.
21 Q. So that's a typographical error?
22 A. Yes.
23 Q. The entryjust below that indicates
24 visiting resident, the Memorial Hospital for
23 Cancer and Allied Diseases, et cetera, 1973.
0144
1 Ilgren
2 How can you be a resident before you
3 have received your M.D. degree?
4 A. Again that should be'74. I was
3 working with Dr. /ones on a project to deal with
6 choriocarcinoma and malignant trophoblasts.
7 Q. Would it be fair to say that that was
8 after you received your M.D. degree in 1974?
9 A. Yes, that's right. That should be '74
10 as well.
11 Q. So the entry on the CV should read not
12 1973 but 1974?
13 A. Yes, it should.
14 Q. As I understand it, you did your
13 residency following your medical school in New
16 York City, is that correct?
17 A. Yes.
18 Q. That was at NYU Cornell hospital?
19 A. It's at Cornell University Medical
20 Center/New York Hospital.
21 MR. GERSON: The New York Hospital is
22 not the same thing as NYU.
23 Q. So this was Cornell University Medical
24 Center at New York Hospital in New York City?
23 A. That's correct.
0145
'
1 Ilgren
2 Q. When did you complete that residency?
3 A. I think June '76.
4 Q. Is that indicated on the CV here
5 somewhere?
6 A. Possibly.
7 Yes, it's on page 3 under
8 "Employment." That was right. It runs from
9 June 1974 to June 1976.
10 Q. That's the first entry under
11 "Employment" on page 3?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. Was that residency actually completed
14 in June of '76 or did you leave to complete your
15 residency elsewhere?
16 A. That was the anatomical pathology
17 residency.
18 Q. So it actually was completed at
19 Cornell University Hospital in New York City?
20 A. Yes.
UCAREF00009383
71
21 MR. GERSON: Cornell University 22 Medical Center in New York City. 23 Q. Do you recall at the time you were 24 Board-certified in pathology whether it was a 25 requirement that you have a three-year residency 0146 1 Ilgren 2 before you were eligible to take those exams? 3 A. 48 months. 4 Q. My question is, again going to the CV, 5 where is the 48-month residency before 6 Board<ertification in 1977? 7 A. I have the correspondence with the 8 Boards ofPathology, but I wrote to them my first 9 year at Oxford, I think it was the end of 1976, 10 because I hadn't taken the Board exam yet, and I 11 asked them what would be the required number of 12 months prior to sitting for the exam, and they 13 said you need 48 months. 14 1 asked them if, I guess it was about 15 18 months that I had worked at Rockefeller 16 simultaneously with the Cornell University 17 Medical Center, whether that could also be 18 counted, and they said yes. 19 They said in addition they would 20 accept I think the first six months of my 21 training at Oxford, they would give an allowance 22 I think up to six months for research. 23 They also counted the two months I 24 think in medical school I had, a month or two of 25 neuropathology, so it's sufficient, the American 0147 1 Ilgren 2 Board of Pathology reviewed this request and 3 granted it. 4 Q. So is it fair to say what you did 5 within a two-and-a-half to three-year period, you 6 got credit for 48 months? 7 A. I would say three years, something 8 like that. 9 Q. On the CV under "Employment" on page 10 3, the entry we were looking at where you did 11 your residency in New York City, it indicates 12 that you were assistant pathologist Is that a 13 title that you actually held while you were doing 14 your residency? 15 A. I believe that's the title that's on 16 the big certificate I got from New York 17 Hospital. I don't think they called it intern. 18 I think it was assistant pathologist. 19 Q. But would the practical word for that, 20 ifyou will, be resident? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. In the common parlance of resident,
UCAREF00009384
72
23 that's what that assistant pathologist 24 designation means? 23 A. I think ifyou wrote to the hospital 0148 1 Ilgren 2 and asked what position I held during the two 3 years, they would probably say assistant 4 pathologist 3 Q. Then it says anatomic pathology, and I 6 assume that that refers to not a position at the 7 hospital but to the specialty you were studying? 8 A. Yes. 9 Q. Then it says registrar/senior 10 registrar grade. 11 A. Again that's for the sake of the 12 English, to try to give them an idea of what all 13 those different names are. 14 Q. Is it fair to say that in England, 13 what we call a resident in this country is 16 referred to as a registrar? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. Are you familiar with the 19 classification in America of senior resident? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. Did they have senior residents at 22 Cornell University Medical Center at the time you 23 were a resident there? 24 A. Yes, they did. 25 Q. Were you a senior resident? 0149 1 Ilgren 2 A. No. 3 Q. Is it your testimony that your status 4 as a resident there was equivalent to a senior 5 registrar grade in England? 6 A. They don't translate terribly well 7 because the systems are quite different, the 8 postgraduate systems are quite different There 9 could very well have been things I was doing in 10 the second year at Cornell that certain senior 11 registrars would be doing, so it'sjust difficult 12 to translate from the American to the English 13 system. 14 Q. Do you know ifyou were 15 Board-certified in pathology in 1976 or 1977? 16 A. I think it's probably '77. 17 Q. It says '76 on the CV. 18 A. That should be changed. I'll change 19 that. 20 . Q. As Board certifications go. were you 21 relatively young when you received that 22 certification? 23 A. I think I was the youngest in the 24 history of the United States.
UCAREF00009385
73
25 Q. Do you know that for a fact? 0150 1 Ilgren 2 A. I think somebody told me that once. 3 Q. It also indicates on page 2 of the CV 4 under the heading "Research And/Or Professional 5 Chronology" that in 1976 you were a visiting 6 worker in the Imperial Cancer Research Fund. 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. Would it be fair to say that at some 9 point in 1976 you moved to England, is that how 10 that worked? 11 A. I arrived Guy Fauikes night, 12 November 5, 1976. 13 Q. Was that for a visit ot did you 14 actually move there? 15 A. I went to do my Ph.D. there. 16 Q. Upon arriving did you go directly to 17 Oxford? 18 A. Yes. 19 Q. Upon arriving there at Oxford, was the 20 first position you held that ofthe visiting 21 worker in the Imperial Cancer Research Fund? 22 A. No. 23 Q. What does it mean when you say 24 visiting worker in the Imperial Cancer Research 25 Fund? 0151 1 Ilgren 2 A. It meant that I was going in the late 3 winter and probably for a portion of 1977,1 was 4 going down to the Imperial Cancer Research Fund 5 to study the tumor slides in the so-called TRC, 6 the tumor reference collection, that Rupert 7 Willis had placed in the ICRF or the cancer fund, 8 and it wasn't as ifI was doing active research, 9 though in fact Dr. Pang, who actually took care 10 of the collection, you can see at the end here, 11 it's Professor R.A. Willis and Dr. Lillian Pang, 12 she and I did subsequently write a paper together 13 and we used some ofthe materials, 1 think there 14 were some lung cancers of dogs and cats that we 15 incorporated into a monograph that I wrote. 16 Q. Was that a paid position? 17 A. No, that's not a paid position. 18 Q. Did someone ask you to do that or how 19 did you come to do that? 20 A. It's a funny story. After I wrote to 21 Chicago and I got permission to go ahead and take 22 the exam in American pathology, there was a major 23 problem that I was working largely in a basic 24 science lab in the zoology/botany environment, 25 but I needed a very fine tumor collection review 0152
UCAREF00009386
74
1 Ilgren 2 for the test, so I had a series ofthese 3 textbooks by Rupert Willis and I opened the page 4 up and I saw that he was at Leeds, so I sent a 5 letter off to Rupert Willis and said because he 6 was a renowned tumor pathologist, 1 thought he 7 had a good tumor slide collection that I might 8 review. 9 I wrote to him and he said sure, you 10 can come and see me and talk to me and you can 11 review my collection that's now under the 12 supervision of Dr. Pang at the Imperial Cancer 13 Fund. 14 So I called Dr. Pang up and she wasn't 15 in charge of the pathology department per se, but 16 they said sure, come on down and we'll help you 17 go through the collection. 18 Q. Do you recall ifas a requirement to 19 get your complete 48 months to sit for the Board 20 certification in pathology in the United States, 21 that when you were trying to get credit for the 22 months in England they said no, you have to do 23 some specific pathology-related work and that's 24 how you got on to this idea? 25 A. No, it was just, it was more of a 0153 1 Ilgren 2 study aid to get probably the finest tumor 3 collection in the entire worldjust so that I 4 could go through it, as most people do in 5 preparation for exam, but no one said you need 6 additional pathology experience. That was 7 already taken care of. 8 Q. So just so I'm clear, when you wrote 9 the Boards or when you wrote to the people who 10 were giving the Boards for pathology in the 11 United States and said I want to get credit for 12 these months I spent over in England toward my 48 13 months, they didn't come back and say well, no, 14 you're in a basic sciences laboratory and that's 15 not really pathology, so you have to do some 16 pathology work? 17 A. No, they liked it I mean a lot of 18 the work was fundamental biological work, but it 19 was clearly applicable to pathology and tumor 20 biology. 21 Q. Then it says in 1977 visiting 22 scientist. University of Southern California. San 23 Diego Zoo Society Hospital. Department of 24 Pathology. 25 Did you actually move to San Diego in 0154 1 Ilgren 2 '77 or did you go there for a visit to compare
UCAREF00009387
75
3 the tumor collection there with the one in 4 England for purposes of that paper? 5 A. Again, that's another funny story. 6 Briefly, it partly came about because I had to go 7 to San Diego to lake my Boards in pathology and I 8 didn't have any money. So I went across the 9 street to the Sir William Dunn School of 10 Pathology because there was another American who 11 was a third-year resident in pathology at the 12 time on leave from Columbia, and I asked him do 13 you know anybody in San Diego and he said well, 14 there is this Professor Benirschke who is doing 13 some very interesting work. 16 I wanted the name of someone who might 17 sponsor a fellowship application, so I wrote to 18 Benirschke, I was quite open with him, I said I 19 need to come to San Diego to take my Board exams 20 and I would like to apply for a fellowship. I 21 found out that the UICC had these traveling 22 fellowships and there was one called an ICRETT, 23 they paid you for three weeks' living and paid 24 your travel expenses, so I wrote a number of 23 applications with Benirschke which gave us the 0155 1 Ilgren 2 funding to fly me over to San Diego. 3 It was quite a nice time. I went and 4 took my exams for the first two days and then 5 Benirschke and I sat down and worked up the 6 details of my research project. 7 Q. Would it be fair to say that this 8 entry, visiting scientist, was this project you 9 did in San Diego? 10 A. Yes. 11 Q. To fund your trip over there to take 12 the Boards? 13 A. That's what they called me, a visiting 14 scientist 15 Q. How long were you actually there 16 visiting in that position? 17 A. I think three weeks. 18 Q. Did that then result in this 19 publication of Ilgren, Griner. Benirschke and 20 Pang, "A Comparative Study of Pulmonary Tumors"? 21 A. Yes. it did. 22 Q. Basically that was a study of tumors 23 in animals at the San Diego Zoo compared with 24 these ones over in England? 25 A. Comparatively speaking, it was 0156 1 Ilgren 2 actually animals versus humans, but it 3 incorporated domestic species held at the Cancer 4 Fund in London with the wild animal species that
UCAREF00009388
76
5 were held in San Diego, so the comparison really 6 refers to animals versus humans. 7 Q. Does that research form any basis for 8 your opinions concerning asbestos and disease? 9 A. I would have to read the paper again. 10 I haven't read it for a long time. 11 Q. I was afraid you would say that, 12 because I read the paper at my office yesterday 13 and forgot to bring it with me. I guess we don't 14 have a copy here, is that correct? 15 A. I don't have one. 16 Q. So without reading the paper you 17 couldn't answer that question as to whether it 18 forms a basis ofyour current opinions on 19 asbestos and disease? 20 A. Do you have a specific question you 21 wanted to ask me about it? 22 Q. I'mjust asking whether the research 23 which is described in that paper forms any part 24 of the basis of your current opinions concerning 25 asbestos and disease. 0157 1 llgren 2 A. Again I would have to read the paper 3 and see what I put in it. 4 (Recess taken.) 5 BY MR. BROWNSON: 6 Q. Are you currently affiliated with any 7 hospitals? 8 A. No. 9 Q. Do you have staffprivileges at any 10 hospitals? 11 A. No. 12 Q. Are you currently engaged in the 13 practice of medicine? 14 A. Reviewing pathology slides and doing 15 postmortems? 16 Q. Right 17 A. No. I mean I do review, in 18 consultation, pathology slides that are sent to 19 me often for litigation purposes. 20 Q. So if some lawyer representing a 21 company in asbestos litigation would want you to 22 review slides, he would send those to you and you 23 would look at them? 24 A. Or for a benzene case or an arsenic 25 case or whatever the case happens to be. 0158 1 llgren 2 Q. But as a layman I make a distinction 3 between what I guess I would call a research 4 person and a person practicing medicine seeing 5 patients day to day, or in the case of a 6 pathologist being in a hospital and seeing
UCAREF00009389
77
pathology generated by the hospital?
A. Right
Q. You are more in the research
category.
A. In the Brownson sense, I am not
Q. Would that be a fair characterization?
A. As you have described it, yes.
Q. Are you affiliated with any medical
group of doctors?
MR. WILL: You mean like a clinic or
pathology group?
Q. Are you affiliated with any clinical
practice, clinical medical practice?
A. Like an HMO group or something?
Q. Right
A. No.
'
Q. Are you on the staff of any colleges
or univerities in any capacity in the United
States?
Ilgren A. No. Q. Since you came back from Oxford to the United States, have you been on the staffof any hospitals here in the United States? A. No. Q. Have you been on the staff or faculty ofany colleges or univerities or medical schools in the United States?
A. No. Q. Let me go back to the CV. We were on page 2 where we were under "Research And/Or Professional Experience Chronology."
We talked about this thing at San Diego. The next thing you list in 1977, traveling research fellow, International Union Against Cancer, Geneva, Switzerland. Do you see that?
A. That was effectively the fellowship that sent me to San Diego. That was my title from the fellowship, this ICRETT thing.
Q. So this was the group, the International Union Against Cancer?
A. Right.
Q. That sponsored this thing in San Diego

9 listed there in 1977, would that he the same as 10 the visiting scientist in 1977? 11 A. Yes. 12 Q. You were never actually stationed or 13 living or working in Geneva, Switzerland, were 14 you, in 1977? 15 A. No. 16 Q. Then the next entry is 1976/77, which 17 is post-doctorate research fellow, et cetera, 18 Department of Zoology. 19 That's something different, as I 20 understand it, than the thing in San Diego? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. When you moved to England after 23 completing your residency in New York City, you 24 arrived there in 16, and was this then what you 25 started doing? 0161 1 llgren 2 . A. I needed funding to pay for the 3 tuition cost and also to simply live on. So when 4 I first arrived there. I applied for a series of 5 grants or fellowships, one ofwhich was sponsored 6 by the World Health, another was American Cancer, 7 another was NIH, and most of them came through, 8 so this was the first grant that I had applied 9 for which was in the International Agency for 10 Cancer Research Division of the World Health 11 Organization, which is based in France in Lyon, 12 and that was a one-year grant and I don't think 1 13 took the full year because then the American 14 Cancer Society gave me a two-year grant, but I 15 couldn't keep the WHO grant at the same time as 16 the American Cancer Society grant, so I 17 stopped -- I can't remember, it was about eight 18 months of the WHO -- and then I started with the 19 American Cancer Society. 20 Then after a certain number of months 21 I was given a three-year NIH award, so I stopped 22 the American Cancer Society. So they more or 23 less, it wasn't as if WHO ran for a perfect year 24 and then the American Cancer Society ran for a 25 perfect two years and NIH ran for a perfect three 0162 1 llgren 2 years. That was the kind of thing. 3 Q. Let me see ifI can summarize it 4 You arrive in England in 1976, go to 5 Oxford to enroll in the Ph.D. program. You're in 6 the Ph.D. program, and I mean D.Phil., you're in 7 the program and you get the Ph.D. in 1980, 8 correct? 9 A. I think so. 10 Q. During the time you're in England at
UCAREF00009391
79
11 Oxford getting the Ph.D,, what we see here looks 12 like five entries on your resume which are 13 entries for research funds that you got from 14 these various organizations, would that be fair 15 to say? 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. Were these research funds actually 18 paying you to do some work or were they paying 19 your tuition and expenses? Were they like 20 scholarships or actually like a job where you go 21 to work and get a paycheck? 22 A. That's a fiinny question. As I recall, 23 they were paid monthly and they were to cover my 24 living expenses, my -1 used some of the funds 25 to pay for the tuition. Some of the research 0163 1 Ilgren 2 expenses like go down to the store. In each 3 department they have a departmental store where 4 ifyou need a bottle of formaldehyde or whatever, 5 you have to buy that, so as I recall. I think 6 they paid the department monthly to cover certain 7 research expenses and they would pay me, again 8 it's a long time ago, but I think they would give 9 me a paycheck or whatever it was to pay mejust 10 to cover rent or food or whatever it happened to 11 be. 12 Q. I'm familiar with the term 13 scholarship, ifyou're in college or graduate 14 school you get a scholarship or fellowship. 15 Was this an equivalent of that, where 16 you were getting in the layman's term 17 scholarships or fellowships from these various 18 organizations? 19 A. I don't know how to interpret it. 20 Part of the problem is I had already finished so 21 much work beforehand that I was already a 22 certified specialist as it were. 23 Q. In pathology. 24 A. Then I literally wanted to start from 25 ground zero again to get this basic science 0164 1 Ilgren 2 experience in a Ph.D. program, so in one sense I 3 was a Ph.D. student and in another sense I was a 4 kind of something else physician, so ifyou want 5 to call it a scholarship. I tried to put down 6 what they called the things. 7 I applied for a traveling research 8 fellowship. I applied for a post-doctoral 9 research fellowship with WHO. I applied for 10 these special post-doctoral research fellowships, 11 American Cancer Society. 12 I applied for the research fellowship
UCAREF00009392
80
13 atNIH. That's basically what they call these 14 things that you got, so I assumed ifI was given 15 a research fellowship, I was the research fellow. 16 Q. So these things that you have listed 17 between 1976 and 1980, are those things that you 18 applied for or things that you actually received? 19 A. They were things I applied for and 20 then received. 21 Q. So there weren't any of these entries 22 that you applied for and you didn't actually 23 receive a fellowship or grant between 1976 and 24 1980? 25 A. Just ask that again. 0165 1 IlgTen 2 MR. WILL: Are you asking did he 3 receive all of the things that are entered 4 on that? 5 Q. Did you receive a financial grant of 6 some sort from each of the five things you list 7 between 1976 and 1980 while you were getting your 8 Ph.D.7 9 A. I received. I can't remember the exact 10 money amounts, but I received several thousand 11 dollars for the traveling research fellowship. 12 The World Health Organization fellowship I think 13 was $6,000. The special post-doctoral research 14 fellowship was 1 think $10,000 or $11,000 a year 15 for two years. The research fellowship for NIH 16 was, I can't remember. I think it was $15,000, 17 $16,000 and $17,000 a year. 18 Q. 1970 to 1979, it says research fellow, 19 NIH. 20 A. Right 21 Q. The NIH is the National Institutes of 22 Health in the United States? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. So basically what you got was, ifI 25 can use layman's terms, a scholarship or grant 0166 1 Ilgren 2 from the National Institutes ofHealth in the 3 United States to help fund your Ph.D. education 4 and research at Oxford? 5 A. Right, plus the post-Ph.D. work too. 6 Q. Look at the entry 1979-1980, visiting 7 scientist. Sir William Dunn School of Pathology, 8 University of Oxford. 9 First of all, did you hold the title 10 ofvisiting scientist in the School of Pathology? 11 A. I think that ms the title. When 1 12 finished my Ph.D. or D.PhiL actually during the 13 six-month period before I had received the Ph.D., 14 I guess he was the regius professor of pathology
UCARE F00009393
81
15 at the time, Henry Harris, mote me a letter and 16 asked me to come and see him. 17 He said ifyou would like to spend a 18 year ofcontinuing your work at the Sir William 19 Dunn School, which is right across the street 20 from the zoology department, we would be happy to 21 give you lab facilities and make available basic 22 research things. That was it 23 Q. Was this a paid position from the 24 University of Oxford? 25 A. That was again using more of the NIH 0167 1 Ilgren 2 monies. I had only used say less than a year of 3 the NIH research monies to pay for my last year 4 of the Ph.D. or D.Phil., 1979 to '80. and then I 5 had, I think it was two years when I finished my 6 D.Phil., I had two years of monies remaining on 7 the NIH grant. 8 Q. So you applied some ofthat money to 9 this position? 10 A. The first year I split between the Sir 11 William Dunn School of Pathology and the botany 12 school, and then the last year ofthe NIH was the 13 first year in neuropathology. 14 Q. That other CV that we had marked as 15 Exhibit 3, ifwe can drag that out I'm looking 16 at the second page of it and I see an entry from 17 1979 to 1980, it says visiting research worker, 18 NIH, Sir William Dunn School of Pathology. 19 Is that the same thing as what wejust 20 talked about? 21 A. I guess so. I suppose it's the same. 22 Q. So on one resume you referred to it as 23 visiting research worker and then on the more 24 recent one you referred to it as visiting 25 scientist. 0168 1 Ilgren 2 A. Right. I probably abandoned two words 3 for one for the sake of economy. 4 Q. Is visiting scientist or visiting 5 research worker an actual title at Oxford or are 6 those descriptions you have inserted into the CV 7 to describe what you were doing? 8 A. They are descriptions to convey what I 9 was doing, largely, at the time. 10 Q. You received a license to practice 11 medicine in the State of New York in 1975, is 12 that right? 13 A. Yes. 14 Q. Have you been licensed in any other 15 state to practice medicine in the United States? 16 A. No.
UCAREF00009394
82
17 Q. Ifyou look at page 1 of your CV, 18 numbered page 1 on Exhibit 1, the recent CV, it 19 indicates you are licensed in medicine and 20 surgery. State ofNew York in 1975, correct? 21 A. Yes. 22 Q. And then two entries above it says 23 1975, diplomate ofthe National Board ofMedical 24 Examiners. 25 Is that something different? 0169 1 llgren 2 A. When you pass your national boards you 3 get a diploma and basically everybody who, as far 4 as I'm aware, that gets a license has to pass the 5 national boards, so that just meant I passed the 6 national boards. 7 Q. Did you ever obtain a license to 8 practice medicine in England? 9 A. I had or still have, I believe, the 10 equivalent license, which ifyou look on page 2, 11 1982, General Medical Council full registration, 12 so they say you're registered to practice there. 13 Q. So the entry 1982, General Medical 14 Council full registration, in layman's terms 15 means a license to practice medicine in England? 16 A. Yes. 17 Q. Is there some distinction between full 18 registration or full license and some lesser 19 registration? 20 A. You have to be fully registered. You 21 have to be. 22 Q. Then ifyou took at the next entry, as 23 long as we are in 1982, it says locum, 24 consultant, neuropathologist, Radcliffe 25 Infirmary, Oxford. Locum, as I understand it, is 0170 1 llgren 2 from the Latin, and basically it means holding 3 the place of someone else? 4 A. The boss was away. He let me run the 5 shop. 6 Q. That's indicated June 3-7,1983? 7 A. Yes. 8 Q. So I'm trying to figure out what that 9 was. Would it be fair to say that for a couple 10 ofweeks in lune of'83 the boss was away at the 11 Radcliffe Infirmary and you were able to fill in 12 for him? 13 A. I suppose I ran most of the department 14 in his absence. It was kind ofexceptional 15 circumstances that they would let one do that. 16 Q. Why would that be exceptional? 17 Doesn't somebody have to be the neuropathologist 18 when the boss is on vacation?
UCAREF00009395
83
19 A. But it's an extremely responsible 20 job. They had a catchment area of3,000,000 21 people. It's one thing to be a training 22 neuropathologist with world class, very senior 23 people around with whom you can show a slide, but 24 if there is no one around and you have to tell 25 neurosurgeons sure, that's this, you have to 0171 1 Ilgren 2 treat them this way, I think as a training 3 neuropathologist that's a pretty weighty 4 responsibility. 5 Q. During that two-year period of time 6 did you actually -- 7 A. Two weeks. 8 Q. During that two-week period of time 9 did you actually see neuropathology material from 10 patients at the Radcliffe Infirmary? 11 A. Always. I didn't leave the 12 infirmary. I was just there in the same 13 department. It didn't mean I went to a 14 peripheral town. 15 Q. Let me see ifI can summarize your 16 experience. After you obtained the Ph.D. in 17 1980, it looks like you then went to work in 18 terms ofyour day-to-day activity and worked at 19 the Radcliffe Infirmary, is that fair to say? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. At the Radcliffe Infirmary you went to 22 work as a pathologist and in particular a 23 neuropathologist, correct? 24 A. Yes. 25 Q. Was that actually, to use the American 0172 1 Ilgren 2 equivalent, a paid doctor on the staff of that 3 infirmary, is that what that is? 4 A. Yes. 5 Q. Is that like a salaried position? 6 A. Yes. 7 Q. They have the national medical, that's 8 why I'm asking the question, it's not an 9 independent, free-standing medical group or 10 hospital ofsome sort 11 A. National Health Service set salary 12 scale, eveiything. 13 Q. ThePh.D. you obtained in 1980 and the 14 thesis was what? 15 A. Title ofthe thesis? 16 Q. I'm asking for the topic of the 17 thesis. 18 A. I have a description here. It's on 19 page 10. Doctoral dissertation summary. 20 Q. Would the summary on page 10 be at
UCAREF00009396
84
21 least what you're presenting at the present time 22 on your CV as the summary ofyour doctoral thesis 23 you obtained in 1980 in the Department of Biology 24 and Zoology? 25 A. Zoology, yes, that's the summary. 0173 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Did the work leading up to that Ph.D. 3 include any work with asbestos? 4 A. Did I do any asbestos work here? 5 Q. Right 6 A. No. 7 Q. In the Ph.D. thesis itself, first of 8 all is that published somewhere? 9 A. In I think twelve different papers. 10 They are listed in the first portion of the 11 bibliography. 12 MR. GERSON: In 12 different 13 ,publications, did you mean? 14 THE WITNESS: Yes. 15 A. It would be papers Nos. 3,4,5,6,7, 16 8,9, not 10,14,15. That's it It looks like 17 nine publications. 18 Q. So those nine publications that you 19 have listed which are all on page 12 of your CV 20 as Nos. 3,4,5,6,7,8, 9.14 and 15, were 21 publications resulting from the Ph.D. 22 dissertation? 23 A. Yes. 24 Q. I assume that you didn't, they don't 25 each parrot the same dissertation nine times. 0174 1 Ilgren 2 Those are different publications resulting from 3 that Ph.D. work? 4 A. All different datasets. 14 is a 5 review article which reviews the whole field, but 6 the rest have individual datasets. There is not 7 a great deal of replication and overlap. 8 Q. So is the entire thesis actually 9 published somewhere in the form ofa thesis in 10 the literature? 11 A. It's published as these papers. 12 MR. WILL: Is the thesis itself 13 entirely published in one place in the form 14 in which you submitted it? 15 MR. BROWNSON: Right. 16 A. It's in the university library. 17 Q. But my question is was it actually 18 published in the peer review medical literature? 19 A. Sure, in these journals. 20 Q. The nine articles you have listed and 21 just told us about are published papers in the 22 scientific literature which were as a result of
UCAREF00009397
85
23 your Ph.D. research? 24 A. Ifyou look at the back of my thesis, 23 it will say, again I would like to have it with 0175 1 Ilgren 2 me, but to paraphrase what I think it says, this 3 thesis was compiled according to clause such and 4 such of the University of Oxford regulations 5 whereby an individual may bind publications. 6 The usual route is not to do that 7 It's an exceptional way, but basically I didn't 8 have the time and money to spend an additional 9 year sitting around writing up everything as 10 papers, and my professor basically encouraged us 11 to write up as we went so that ifwe did 12 experiments from say September to December, 13 whenever it was, in January the following year, 14 just sit down and say now I'm going to write that 15 up for publication. You wouldn't stop doing your 16 experiments. So itjust saved -1 mean most 17 Ph.D. people do their thesis, put together a 18 conventional thesis, send it in and then they go 19 bade and write it up. 20 Q. You didn't do (hat. What you did is 21 you submitted nine papers that had been published 22 in the literature as you havejust described, 23 bound them together and submitted those nine 24 papers as the Ph.D. thesis, is that right? 25 A. Yes. 0176 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Then that material was accepted as a 3 Ph.D. thesis and you received a Ph.D. from Oxford 4 in 1980? 5. A. Exactly. 6 Q. Ifwe went and blew the dust off some 7 shelf in some library at Oxford and found the 8 thesis, it would consist of those nine papers 9 bound together? 10 A. It would actually be the galley. They 11 are not the final papers, but they are sort of 12 the galleys. 13 Q. Galley proofs ofthose papers? 14 A. Or the submitted manuscripts. 15 Q. Did you receive any English degree or 16 accreditation as a neural pathologist? 17 A. Just the associate MRCPalh. 18 Q. So I guess what I'm trying to get at, 19 there is not an actual medical degree or graduate 20 degree from a university or a college that you 21received in neuropathology in England? 22 A. No. 23 Q. So at whatever point, and I think we 24 saw it was October of 1981 that you received the
UCAREF00009398
86
25 associate membership in the Royal College of 0177 1 Ilgren 2 Pathologists, that would be the date you could 3 officially call yourself a neuropathologist in 4 England, would that be fair to say? 5 A. I imagine so. 6 Q. In terms ofactually practicing 7 neuropathology, would you need that associate S membership in the Royal College of Pathologists 9 to go to the Radcliffe Infirmary and be a 10 neuropathologist? 11 A. I can't remember the exact 12 requirements. I think it depends to some extent 13 on the hospital. I can't remember the actual 14 requirements within the English system, whether 15 they would want you to have the fall membership 16 or whether you could have had, such as I did, a 17 certain number ofyears of experience and have 18 seen so many thousand brain biopsies, done so 19 many neurological autopsies and had the American 20 boards. I don't know how they would read that 21 I don't know what the standard rules would be. 22 Q. Just ifwe could try to summarize your 23 medical accreditation or status as ofOctober of 24 1981, would it be fair to say that as of that 25 point you were a neuropathologist in England, 0178 1 Ilgren 2 whatever was required to do that? 3 A. Plus I was doing all the forensic 4 pathology, most ofthe forensic pathology for the 5 Radcliffe Infirmary as well, so I would say in 6 inverted quotes a forensic pathologist and a 7 neuropathologist 8 Q. Have you ever received any 9 certification or accreditation as a 10 neuropathologist in the United States? 11 A. No. 12 Q. So going back to the original Board 13 certification you got in pathology in 1977, that 14 was just anatomical pathology? 15 A. Yes. 16 Q. Up until October of 1981 when you 17 began your "practice" as a neuropathologist in 18 England at the Radcliffe Infirmary, had you done 19 any medical work with respect to asbestos? 20 A. Medical work with respect to asbestos 21 means what? 22 Q. Up until that point had you seen any 23 patients clinically who had asbestos disease? 24 A. As a medical student I believe I saw a 25 few cases of mesothelioma when I was doing my 0179
UCAREF00009399
87
1 Ilgren 2 residency at Cornell. I went through the James 3 Ewing slide collection, which was 20,000 cases, 4 and they had different examples of mesothelioma 5 there, but I didn't work in a clinic where people 6 were coming in for asbestos-related disease. 7 Q. As of that point in time had you ever 8 reviewed any x-rays as part ofa clinical 9 practice ofpeople with asbestos? 10 A. No. 11 Q. Up until that time had you reviewed 12 pathology material, whether it's slides or actual 13 pathology notes, of asbestos-related tumors as 14 part ofyour work? 13 A. I had off and on. Again largely a few 16 cases of asbestosis and a number of mesothelioma. 17 Q. That was during your residency and 18 medical school training in this country? 19 A. It was either in medical school or 20 residency training here or when I was studying or 21 working, whatever you want to call it, at the 22 cancer research fund in London. You're talking 23 about before'81? 24 Q. Right Would it be fair to say, 23 however, that that was not a subject or a focus 0180 1 Ilgren 2 ofany research you were doing before that time? 3 A. That's correct. 4 Q. If you would have seen such cases, it 3 would have been, how would I say, I don't want to 6 say happenstance, but as part of your broad 7 experience in seeing many kinds oftumors and 8 pathology materials in your training? 9 A. That's right. 10 Q. Have you ever done laboratory research 11 in connection with asbestos? By that I mean 12 something other than reviewing literature, 13 meeting with people, looking at records, that 14 sort of thing? Have you done research in the 13 laboratory? 16 A. Yes, that's described on page 2, 17 second entry from the bottom, and then I think 1 18 may have described that in more detail later on. 19 Very briefly on page 7. There is no 20 publication arising out ofthat. 21 Q. Where is it described briefly on page 22 7? 23 A. Right in the dead middle there. 24 Q. This thing where it says Oxford 23 University, 1983 to 1987, asbestos body chelated 0181 1 Ilgren 2 treatment project?
UCAREF00009400
$8
3 A. Yes. 4 Q. So to try to move this along, the 5 actual laboratory research you have done 6 concerning asbestos is shown in your CV in two 7 places, one on page 2, second to last entry at 8 the bottom, and then it appears again on page 7 9 in this entry in the middle from '85 to '877 10 A. Are you asking me does this broadly 11 apply to every -- let me say it differently. In 12 terms of sitting in the lab and injecting rats, 13 doing animal studies, specifically hands-on 14 asbestos work? 15 Q. Right. 16 A. That's correct. 17 Q. I just want to ask some basic 18 questions. The study ofpathology is basically 19 looking at tissue from the body, correct? Thai's 20 what a pathologist docs? 21 A. It's a compound question, really. 22 What did you ask me, what was the first part? 23 Q. A pathologist, what a pathologist does 24 is look at or study tissue samples, would that be 25 fair to say? 0182 1 Ilgren 2 A. It could be tissue samples. It could 3 be various fluids. It's a whole range of 4 materials. 5 Q. Materials from the body? 6 A. A pathologist can also be an 7 experimental pathologist. A pathologist can also 8 be a research -1 think there is a whole array 9 ofcategories of pathologists. The person who 10 studies disease may be a fundamental research 11 pathologist who never looks at a body, doesn't 12 look at a whole organism, may spend his entire 13 life doing in vitro studies or theoretical 14 modeling. 15 Q. A pathologist does not treat living, 16 breathing patients and put a stethoscope to their 17 chest? 18 A. That's correct. 19 Q. The pathologist studies or analyzes 20 samples of tissue and fluid and that sort of 21 thing? 22 A. Pathology is the study of disease. A 23 pathologist is a person who studies diseases. 24 Q. I'm not trying to make more of this 25 than there is. but an epidemiologist also studies 0183 1 Ilgren 2 diseases, but a pathologist studies diseases from 3 the perspective of looking at or studying or 4 analyzing tissues and parts from the human body?
UCARE F00009401
89
5 A. Sometimes. 6 Q. When you spoke earlier of breaking it 7 down more specifically, some people are research 8 pathologists who do research and some people are 9 what would you call them, medical or practicing 10 pathologists that actually look at the day-to-day 11 tissue that comes down from the surgeon? 12 A. Hospital clinical pathologist, 13 something like that 14 Q. The specific specialty of 15 neuropathology which you obtained in 1981 or 16 thereabouts, how would that be described? How 17 could you best characterize that specialty? 18 A. Neurological pathology is the study of 19 diseases of the nervous system whereby one is 20 responsible for the diagnosis of neurological 21 diseases which might be inflammatory, tumorous, 22 infectious, any agent or toxin, any agent that 23 would affect the central or peripheral or 24 autonomic nervous systems a pathologist might 25 study ifhe is a neuropathologist. 0184 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Is mesothelioma, for example, 3 considered a neurological disease that would be 4 studied by a neuropathologist? 5 A. Not yet, I suppose. 6 Q. How about asbestosis, is that a 7 neurological disease? 8 A. No. 9 Q. How about lung cancer, carcinoma of 10 the lung? 11 A. No. 12 Q. Let's go back. I think before we get 13 on this topic we were talking about the way. what 14 you described as the hands-on research. That was 15 this project beginning in 1984,1 guess, with 16 Professor Shubik? 17 A. Yes. 18 Q. It looks like it started in 1984 and 19 continued through '87, is that right? 20 A. It was almost two years. It was about 21 two years or so. 22 Q. At page 7 of the resume it indicates 23 that it was from 1985 to 1987 and on page 2 it 24 says the grant was received in 1984. Is that a 25 correct chronology of things? 0185 1 Ilgren 2 A. We may have gotten the grant in *84 3 and the work began in '85. I can't quite 4 remember. I know we worked on writing the grants 5 and making application to the Health And Safety
6 Executive and other agencies for the money. Then
UCAREF00009402
90
7 I finished the senior registrarjob July 1, 1985, 8 so part of what I was doing from July 1,1985 9 into '87 was working on this project. 10 Q. That was my next question. Senior 11 registrar, that would be what we talked about 12 before, equivalent to a resident in the United 13 States? 14 A. In England you finish medical school. 15 You do a year as a so-called house officer, which 16 would be the old internship. Then you do one to 17 two years as a senior house officer, SHO, and 18 then you do three years as a so-called registrar, 19 and then four years as a senior registrar. 20 That's the general progression, the 21 two to three years of registrar. It can vary a 22 bit. So I just throw that in so you have a 23 better idea ofthe nomenclature and the way it 24 progresses with house officer and SHO and 25 registrar and senior registrar. 0186 1 Ilgren 2 The resident, most American training 3 programs are shorter, but the medical school 4 period per se is longer, where in England the 5 medical school period is a bit shorter and the 6 postgraduate training is longer, so there is a 7 slightly more protracted, I guess it's just the 8 way the society wants to emphasize either the 9 pregraduate or postgraduate training. 10 Q. Could I characterize your work from 11 the time you obtained the Ph.D. until you became 12 a faculty member at Oxford in 1984, that interim 13 of about four years, could l characterize that 14 work as being a neuropathologist on the staff at 15 the Radcliffe Infirmary with some forensic 16 pathology on the side? 17 A. I also was given a grant from the 18 Medical Research Council when I began at the 19 Radcliffe Infirmary to do neuro-embryological 20 research, so I was really doing three different 21 things. Actually there were more, but three 22 basic things. I was one, doing my 23 neuro-embryological research, which was related 24 to brain tumors. I was doing this forensic 25 business and I was doing this sort of senior 0187 1 Ilgren 2 registrarship, diagnostic hospitat/clinical 3 neuropathologist. 4 Q. Would it be fair to say that your 5 primary interest at that time was still trying to 6 conduct this research but that you were kind of 7 holding down twojobs to fund it. or were you 8 actually practicing neuropathology or how would
UCAREF00009403
91
9 you describe your status during that time? 10 A. I think there could easily be an 11 analogy between an associate professor here who 12 would have an NIH grant, who would be doing some 13 research in his department and also doing some 14 diagnostic work, either a pathologist looking at 15 slides or as a clinician looking at patients, so 16 it'sjust the main grant-giving body in England 17 is the Medical Research Council. It's the 18 equivalent of NIH. 19 Q. From 1980 to 1981 were you a faculty 20 member ofany college or university in England? 21 From 1980 to 1984, until 1984, were 22 you a faculty member of any college or university 23 in England? 24 A. The last page of my -- I thought I had 25 a photocopy ofthe faculty membership 0188 1 Itgren 2 certificate. I don't remember when that was 3 dated. 4 Q. That's a good point Actually ifyou 5 look at CV No. 2,1 think that's the one that has 6 it. Let's look at that. 7 A. I think it's'84. Here it is. 8 Q. Where do you find it? 9 A. It's in the very back of Exhibit 3. 10 It's dated 31 January 1984. 11 Q. Soon January 31. 1984 you became a 12 member ofthe faculty at Oxford University, 13 right? 14 A. That's what it says. 15 Q. My question is before that date, from 16 1980 when you got the Ph.D. until January 31, 17 1984, were you on the faculty ofany college or 18 university in England? 19 A. No. 20 Q. Were you doing any teaching of medical 21 students during that interim firom 1980 to January 22 31, 1984? 23 A. I was giving the university lectures 24 in brain trauma, brain infection, brain 25 demyelination. 1 gave either four or five major 0189 1 Ilgren 2 lectures on brain diseases in the pathology 3 course at the University Medical School. It was 4 part of their curriculum. 5 In England when you finish high 6 school, as it were, you go into medical school. 7 It's three years ofa preclinical medical 8 training, then three years ofa clinical medical 9 training, but you're still in medical school. 10 In the first three years, I think it's
UCAREF00009404
92
11 in the third year, they are required to take a 12 basic pathology course, and neuropathology and 13 other pathological subspecialties are covered, 14 and the neuropath department always participates 15 in that teaching program, so, for example, in the 16 general pathology department the experts in renal 17 pathology would give a couple lectures on kidney 18 disease. The experts on whatever would give 19 their didactic presentation. 20 Q. So if I could again try to summarize 21 in layman's terms, from 1980 until January 31, 22 1984 you were not a faculty member on the paid, 23 lull-time faculty of the medical school at the 24 University of Oxford, but what you did is you 25 gave some lectures to third-year medical students 0190 1 Ilgren 2 in the specialty of neuropathology, would that be 3 fair to say? 4 A. And house staff and clinical medical 5 students. There was a whole series of different 6 grades of students, of house staff. 7 Q. House staffat the Radcliffe 8 Infirmary? 9 A. Yes. Other residents, we also had to 10 make certain presentations to the entire 11 department, so there is a whole different series 12 oftraining or teaching. 13 Q. Does that appear on the CV, that 14 particular experience? 15 A. Which experience? 16 Q. That you have just mentioned where you 17 gave the lectures in neuropathology to the 18 medical students or the house staff? 19 A. No. 20 Q. This reference in 1983 of subfaculty 21 member, department ofbiochemistry. University of 22 Oxford, that's something different? 23 A. I just took this off ofwhat they sent 24 me. That should be '84. I'm sorry it's so 25 complicated. Look at the back of Exhibit 3. 0191 1 Ilgren 2 You're a member ofa college. You're in that 3 faculty, but you're a member of a subfaculty, 4 because obviously that biological and 5 agricultural sciences has a number of 6 subfaculties, so in that they would have, they 7 probably had physical chemistry, organic 8 chemistry, biochemistry, zoology, cellular 9 pathology. 10 So for each subfaculty they would have 11 maybe 30 people. I can't remember exactly how 12 many. Then you would have subfaculty meetings
UCAREF00009405
93
13 every two or three weeks. They would talk about
14 who is doing what research, how they should
15 revise what aspects of the curricula, what should
16 they be teaching, what shouldn't they, all sorts
17 ofthings.
18 Q. On January 31,1984 you became a
19 member of the biological and agricultural
20 sciences faculty at the University of Oxford and
21 also at the same date you became a member of the
22 subfaculty in biochemistry?
23 A. Exactly.
24 Q. So where it says that that occurred on
25 your CV in 1983, that should be 1984?
0192
1 Ilgren
2 A. Yes.
-
3 Q. I would like to get back to the
4 research project you did with Professor Shubik.
3 That took place from 1985 to 1987, correct, and
6 during that time period -- you were nodding your
7 head.
8 A. I'm sorry.
9 Q. During that time period you remained a
10 member of the faculty of the Department of
11 Biological Sciences at Oxford?
12 A. Yes.
13 Q. What portion ofyour time during those
14 years when you were on the faculty until 1987 was
15 spent on that research project? Was that your
16 day-to-day activity or was that halfyour time or
17 how did that work?
18 A. It would be hard to estimate. Maybe
19 20 percent of my time. 25 percent of my time.
20 Q. As far as the grant that was awarded
21 by the health and safety executive, first ofall
22 that's the health and safety executive in
23 England?
24 A. Yes.
25 Q. As far as that grant, were you a
0193
1 Ilgren
2 recipient of the grant or was the recipient
3 Professor Shubik, or was it both ofyou?
4 A. We were co-recipients on the grant.
5 Q. So if we went to the grant application
6 and looked, it would list Ilgren and Shubik?
7 A. It should. I haven't looked at it,
8 but it should list that
9 Q. Would it list anyone else7
10 A. No. just the two of us.
11 Q. Do you know ifProfessor Shubik had
12 received any previous grants from the Health And
13 Safety Executive?
14 A. I don't believe so. I just don't
UCAREF00009406
94
15 know. I don't believe so. 16 Q. Do you know who it was who came up 17 with the idea for this particular research IS project? 19 A. I think it was largely Shubik in that 20 it was a project based on the idea that there may 21 be a two-stage initiation promotion type reaction 22 that would occur between the iron and the 23 asbestos fiber, whereby perhaps the iron as it 24 bound to the fiber could potentiate its effects. 25 He and I obviously discussed the thing 0194 1 Ilgren 2 in great detail and modified the protocol, but 1 3 would think the fundamental ideas would certainty 4 be his. 5 Q. How was it that you came to be 6 involved in that project, since your prior 7 experience had not been in this field? 8 A. I had a boss in neuropathology, Trevor 9 Hughes, who was also bursar of Green College, and 10 the head of Green College was Sir Richard Doll. 11 The head of Green College, one of the other 38 12 colleges, was Sir Richard Doll. Sir Richard had 13 invited Professor Shubik to be a proper fellow of 14 Green College, a senior fellow, research fellow. 15 He would have been a senior research fellow, an 16 SRF, of Green College. 17 I was one ofthe rare Americans in 18 Oxford, actually working in Oxford I should say. 19 There are lots of Americans around, but actually 20 working in Oxford, and Trevor Hughes must have 21 told Shubik that there was an American working in 22 his department who was terribly interested in 23 cancer of all kinds, so Shubik invited me over to 24 his house for a drink and we struck up a pretty 25 good friendship and he knew I realty enjoyed 0195 1 Ilgren 2 doing experimental work, and he was fundamentally 3 an experimental pathologist. 4 So we were walking across. I remember 5 we were walking across the park behind his house 6 one day and he said well, how would you like to 7 do an asbestos experiment? I said sure. That 8 was how it started 9 Q. Did Shubik receive his appointment on 10 the faculty as a professor or don or whatever you 11 call it at Green College? 12 A. Sure. 13 Q. I know he was affiliated with Green 14 College, but what faculty department would that 15 be? 16 A. He would be in the faculty of clinical
UCAREF00009407
95
17 medicine. 18 Q. Is he still there? 19 A. I think so. I don't know. Pretty old 20 now. 21 (Ilgren Exhibit 10, excerpt from World 22 ofLearning 1987, marked for identification, 23 as of this date.) 24 Q. We have marked as Exhibit 10 a 25 photocopy ofa cover sheet and a section ofa 0196 1 Ilgren 2 directory called The World of Learning, 37th 3 edition, 1987. 4 What I did is I pulled out Oxford 5 faculty. I'm trying,to find out ifwe can find 6 where Shubik -- 7 A. No, this is too abbreviated. I 8 shouldn't volunteer materials for you, but I 9 could give you the full, they call it the Oxford 10 calendar. It's a red book about 300 pages long. 11 It lists all the proper fellows. This is a 12 pretty bare-bones -- 13 Q. Would it be fair to take it that 14 what's listed here are the faculty members who 15 have the rank offull professor, and it doesn't 16 list the people who have lesser ranks? 17 A. No, there are other professors here 18 for sure of all different kinds. I can send you 19 the book. 20 Q. In any event, it's a bad list, an 21 incomplete list? 22 A. Very abbreviated and incomplete. 23 Q. Would it be fair to say from 1985 24 through some subsequent period of years, maybe up 25 to the present, maybe not. Professor Shubik was a 0197 1 Ilgren 2 professor in the department ofclinical medicine? 3 A. No, you can't say that. He was a 4 senior research fellow at Green College. To my 5 knowledge, he would have had no professorial 6 status whatsoever. He would have been on the 7 faculty ofclinical medicine and he would have 8 had no teaching duties, no administrative 9 responsibilities. 10 Q. So when we look at your CV. Exhibit 1, 11 at page 2 and at page 7, where he is listed as 12 Professor P. Shubik, we should drop the professor 13 part? 14 A. He was a professor in Chicago at 15 Chicago Medical School from 1953 to 1962.1 16 think. The years might be slightly off. Then he 17 became director ofthe Eppley Institute in 18 Nebraska. I think he was an adjunct professor
UGAREF00009408
96
19 with the University of Nebraska or whatever was 20 there. 21 Then he became a visiting fellow at 22 the University of Heidelberg, where I think he 23 was a professor, but to say that he was an Oxford 24 University professor at that time would be 25 incorrect, so you couldjust call him Dr. Shubik. 0198 1 Ilgren 2 Q. So the reference on the CV to 3 Professor P. Shubik at the time this study was 4 underway should not be Professor, it should be 5 Dr., because he wasn't actually a professor at 6 Oxford at the time? 7 A. That's right 8 Q. As I understand it what this research 9 project was was you and Dr. Shubik were trying to 10 chelate the iron in the body to block the 11 formation of asbestos bodies, would that be kind 12 of a thumbnail sketch of what you were 13 attempting? 14 A. And also thereby inhibit or at least 15 ameliorate the pathogenic process. That's pretty 16 much ahead of its day. The last couple ofyears 17 with free radical ion, iron-related free radical 18 ion theoiy coming out is a very important 19 underlying mechanism in certain aspects of 20 cancer, particularly in asbestos-related 21 disease. As far as I know there was basically 22 nothing in the literature that really suggested. 23 There have been subsequent papers, 24 largely in vitro studies where they did manage, 25 using chelators, to block a radical-related 0199 1 Ilgren 2 change. The problem here was a pretty simple 3 one, that ifyou take a rat and you ask the 4 question if I put asbestos fibers into that rat 5 and I try to block by reducing its iron content 6 so that there is insufficient iron going to the 7 fiber, mil the fiber still make disease. 8 In theory it's a great study but in 9 practice you need to kill the rat, so to speak, 10 because there is so much iron in the rat, it's 11 almost impossible to deplete its stores whereby 12 it wouldn't form. 13 Q. So again if I could try to summarize 14 this, the intent of the project was to see ifyou 15 could inhibit or prevent or ameliorate the 16 formation of ferruginous bodies or iron asbestos 17 bodies in the rat? 18 A. Right. 19 Q. By chelating the iron? 20 A. Right.
UCAREF00009409
97
21 Q. What happened was in order to take 22 enough iron out of the rat to do that, the rat 23 died of iron deficiency? 24 A. The rats didn't die. The results were 25 not clear. The rats didn't die. In other words 0200 1 Ilgren 2 there was a subacute phase and a chronic phase, 3 but one couldn't -- 4 Q. They got pretty loggy? 5 A. Nothing really untoward happened to 6 the rats. It's just simply you could not say 7 that there was less inflammation in the 8 chelated-treated animals as opposed to the ones 9 without. 10 There was one group of animals that 11 for some reason seemed to get a kind of rebound 12 deposition of iron, if I recall, with again as I 13 recall a lot more inflammation. 14 Q. How many animals were involved? 15 A. I would have to get my lab notebooks. 16 There would be hundreds over the time period. 17 Q. These were rats? 18 A. The rats, I can't remember ifthey 19 were wistars or whatever. 20 Q. But this was not a human study, this 21 was a study on rats? 22 A. This was a study on rats. 23 Q. I don't mean to make more of this than 24 there is. I don't mean to stop you but I think I 25 understand what the thinking was. I'm just 0201 1 Ilgren 2 trying to set some basic information about the 3 study. 4 The animal at issue or used was rats. 5 A. Right. 6 Q. The asbestos was introduced to the 7 rats by what, inhalation or injection or what? 8 A. This is how I met Chris Wagner, in 9 fact. Shubik knew Wagner and we went to Chris 10 Wagner's lab in Penarth to discuss the studies 11 with him and also enlist his senior technologist, 12 Rodney Hill, to help us do the intrapleural 13 innoculation. 14 So we used, as I recall, I think 15 chiysotile, amosite and then we also used 16 erionite. which is not asbestos. I believe those 17 three libers types. 18 Q. Was that introduced into the rats by 19 intrapleural injection, the different fibers? 20 A. Yes. 21 Q. Who actually did that work, was that 22 you or Shubik or Wagner?
UCAREF00009410
98
23 A. It was Hill, because he had such
24 experience with the intrapleural injection
25 technique.
0202
1 Ilgren
2 Q. In terms of the iron chelation, how
3 was that physically accomplished?
4 A. We put an experimental iron chelator
5 that we got from Procter & Gamble in the drinking
6 water, a certain level, and we also periodically
7 administered desferoxamine via tail vein
8 injection, and there was a set regimen, drinking
9 water, tail vein injection. Sometimes I would do
10 tail vein injection.
11 Q. The object of that was to get the iron
12 out of the rats, in simple terms?
13 A. Yes.
'
14 Q. Was the study funded in some part by
15 Procter & Gamble?
16 A. As I recall, the whole study was
17 funded by the Health And Safety Executive, which
18 I think is the English equivalent ofNIESH.
19 Q. Was there any participation in the
20 funding by Procter & Gamble?
21 A. I don't think so. I can't remember.
22 Q. Was the study completed or what caused
23 the study to end?
24 A. We just decided that for the reasons I
25 listed, that it wasn't worth pursuing at that
0203
1 Ilgren
2 time.
3 Q. Was there any thought in starting this
4 study or during the study that maybe this could
5 be an actual treatment for people with asbestos
6 bodies in their lung, it could be translated into
7 a human medical treatment?
8 A. I think Shubik and I talked about that
9 a lot in the context of trying to block asbestos
10 body formation in people that might be acutely
11 exposed in a building where all ofa sudden in
12 the newspaper in England you would occasionally
13 read about children who were suddenly immersed in
14 a cloud of asbestos because they walked into a
15 contaminated room.
16 There was thinking about trying to
17 make chelatOT therapy for acute exposure,
18 something like this.
19 Q. But it didn't result in any human
20 therapy for asbestos disease of any kind?
21 A. No.
22 Q. Did it result in any published
23 literature in the medical or scientific
24 literature?
UCAREF00009411
99
25 A. No. 0204 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Were any reports issued to the funding 3 agency, the Health And Safely Executive? 4 A. I think we sent at least one interim 5 report in ordei to get the second phase of 6 funding, but I would have to check. 7 Q. Was there a final report at the end of 8 the study with conclusions in it? 9 A. I believe so. 10 RQ Q. Ifwe wanted to get a copy ofeither 11 the interim report or the final report, could 12 that be obtained today? 13 A. You mean this second? 14 Q. Not this second. Does it exist 15 somewhere today? 16 A. I suppose so. David Gompertz at the 17 Health And Safety Executive was the liaison 18 officer there, and as far as I recall we dealt 19 with him. Shubik also dealt with at the time the 20 head of the HSE, but the person really dealing 21 with the grant mainly was Gompertz and he would 22 be the contact person. 23 Q. You don't have a copy in your 24 possession? 25 A. I might have it in my file. 0205 I Ilgren 2 Q. You might or might not, you don't 3 know? 4 A. Do you want a copy? 5 Q. I would like to get a copy. 6 A. I don't know. I'll have to 7 MR. GERSON: We'II review everything 8 Bob wants. 9 A. I will have to check and see if it's 10 there. It's a long time. 11 Q. While you're making a note there, the 12 fiber type that was injected intrapleurally into 13 these rats was what? 14 A. I think the three types of fiber, 15 chrysotile, amosite and erionite, but I can't 16 remember if we also had crocidolite. I don't 17 remember exactly. I think it was chrysotile. 18 Q. Do you remember the type of 19 chrysotile? 20 A. I think it was UICC. 21 Q. Do you recall ifany of these rats 22 succumbed to tumors? 23 MR. WILL: Why don't you refer to your 24 CV where it says secondary to crocidolite, 25 zeolite and erionite. 0206
UCAREF00009412
100
1 Ilgren 2 Q. We are referring to page 7? 3 MR. WILL: Yes. 4 Q. Mr. Will has pointed out that on page 3 7 it says crocidolite. zeolite and erionite, so 6 does that indicate that the type of asbestos 7 fiber was crocidolite? 8 A. It may have been. It's been a long 9 time since I have done this stuff. 10 Q. Do you recall if any of the rats 11 succumbed to mesothelioma tumors? 12 A. No. It was. I think they were 13 six-week and twelve-week study periods, so it's 14 not sufficient time for tumoT formation. 15 Q. Do you recall the dose that was 16 injected, the dose of fiber injection? 17 A. I think these were standard 20 mg 18 inocula. 19 Q. So would it be a single 20-milligram 20 dose in each rat? 21 A. I believe so. I would have to check. 22 I think that's correct. 23 Q. With respect to Professor Shubik, are 24 you saying that this experiment was the first 25 work on the two-stage cancer mechanism or had 0207 1 Ilgren 2 work been done on that before this particular 3 project? 4 A. In terms ofasbestos-related disease? 5 Q. Let's start more generally. First of 6 all, as I understand, Professor Shubik was a 7 chemical carcinogen researcher, would that be 8 fair to say? 9 A. Shubik is acknowledged as a co-founder 10 of two-stage theory with Isaac Berenblum back in 11 1947. 12 Q. Before this project, wasn't Dr. Shubik 13 concerned with chemical carcinogens as opposed to 14 particles? 15 A. I think he did particulate work with 16 Safliotti in the co-administration of iron oxide 17 particles with benzopyrene in hamsters to develop 18 a lung cancer model. I know he had done some 19 particulate research before that, but I think 20 this was probably the first experimental 21 investigation to test the hypothesis that iron 22 may have a role in the pathogenesis of 23 asbestos-related disease. 24 Q. So as far as Dr. Shubik's previous 25 work on the two-stage mechanism of cancer, he had 0208
1 Ilgren 2 done some work with chemical carcinogens like
UCAREF00009413
101
3 pyrobenzene and also trace metals? When you say 4 particles -- 3 A- I think he has written almost 300 6 papers, so he has gone through a fair gamut of 7 chemical and physical carcinogens. 8 Q. Are you saying that Shubik 9 hypothesized the two-stage cancer mechanism 10 contemporaneously with Berenblum? 11 A. No, I think Isaac Berenblum was a 12 reader in the Sir William Dunn School of 13 Pathology and he came in in about 1927. One of 14 his particular interests was investigating the 15 factors that would serve as modifiers of tumor 16 formation, so some ofhis early studies would be 17 applying a carcinogenic, a carcinogen to a mouse IS and then burning the mouse. One study was carbon 19 dioxide snow. Another was scratching the skin. 20 So Berenblum over the years before he 21 met Shnbik had developed the thinking about 22 interactions between chemical carcinogens and 23 irritants. Shubik came along and participated 24 with Berenblum in the studies and was second 25 author, co-author, so I would say that Berenblum 0209 1 Ilgren 2 probably laid down a lot ofthe theoretical model 3 on which the study was done. 4 Q. In terms ofchronology, would it be 5 fair to say that Berenblum had hypothesized the 6 two-stage mechanism before he began his work with 7 Shubik? That's all I'm trying to get at. 8 A. That's right 9 Q. So Shubik was not a co-founder 10 contemporaneously in time of the theory? 11 A. Some people may shoot me for saying 12 that, but I mean a lot ofpeople give. I would 13 think, Berenblum and Shubik equal credit for 14 this, but my understanding would be that 15 Berenblum added this additional material. 16 Q. You had mentioned that Shubik earlier 17 had done earlier work at the Chicago medical 18 school from 1953 to 1962. and in 1962 he left to 19 go to the Eppley Institute in Omaha, Nebraska, 20 correct? 21 A. Right. 22 Q. That's called something like the 23 Eppley Institute ofMedical Research? I don't 24 know its exact name, but it's in Omaha. 25 A. Something like that. yes. 0210 1 Ilgren 2 Q. Are you aware of the fact that while 3 he was at the Eppley Institute he had one or more 4 grants from the National Cancer Institute?
UCAREF00009414
102
5 A. I think he ran an NCI budget of
6 $6,000,000 to $10,000.000 a year.
7 Q. Did he ever indicate to you that he
8 had gotten in trouble with NCI auditors for
9 commingling that grant money?
10 A. What a mess.
11 Q. You are familiar with that?
12 A. The big scandal, sure.
13 Q. Do you know ifhe ever was indicted
14 for that?
13 A. I had the impression, I didn't know
16 that when I first started working with him, I had
17 the impression that there was some very sloppy
18 bookkeeping at the Eppley.
19 MR. WILL: The question was do you
20 know whether he was indicted. Either you do
21 or you don't.
22 A. I do not know.
23 Q. Do you know ifit was as a result of
24 that scandal which may or may not have resulted
25 in indictment that he left Eppley and went to
0211
1 Ilgren
2 Heidelberg?
3 A. I'm not sure, but it could very well
4 have been so. yes.
5 Q. Once Shubik got to Oxford after, first
6 of all do you know why he left Heidelberg?
7 A. I don't know why he left Heidelberg.
8 Q. In any event he came on the scene at
9 Oxford as you have described. Once he got there
10 he was doing other things other than this
11 particular research project, wasn't he?
12 A. He was, I don't know if he founded the

Comments on the paper "Cytotoxicity of a Short-Fibre Chrysotile for Human Alveolar
Macrophages; Preliminary Observations (1983). Yeager H, Russo D A, Yanez M, Gerardi
D, Nolan R P, Kagan E, Langer A.M. Environmental Research; 30,224-232.".
.
The paper presents a series of results which demonstrate higher cytotoxicity for a "short-fibre"
chrysotile from Calidria than for the reference UICC chrysotile A from Zimbabwe despite a
virtually identical number of fibres longer than 5 pm in the applied doses. Progressively milled
derivatives ofthe Calidria fibre were even more cytotoxic even though there were no long fibres in
the milled forms. This conclusion was presented as having important biological implications for
the use ofshort fibre chrysotile in industry.
'
The Calidria fibre and the milled forms used by Yeager were those produced and described by
Langer et al (1978). The UICC chrysotile was that prepared by Timbrell, Rendall and others in
the late 1960s and described in the report of the Johannesburg Pneumoconiosis Conference
(1970).
Langer et al. (1978) reported decreasing hemolytic activity for the Calidria fiber and the
progressively milled derivatives of it This result was unexpected because milling results in
smaller particles, increased surface area, and increased particle numbers per unit mass, all of
which are normally associated with increased biological activity including hemolysis. Langer
exp lained this apparent contradiction by the observation that the milling had significantly changed
the surface characteristics of the fibers and produced an impressive amount of physico-chemical
data to support this argument.
The fiber lengths were measured by Transmission Electron Microscopy from high magnification
photographs. The sample preparation for the TEM measurement invo Ived dispersion of 1 mg of
the bulk fiber in 0.1 ml ofnitrocellulose (1% in amyl acetate). This preparation technique ought
not to introduce any size selection in the'sample, and all size ranges should be fully represented.
Approximately 1000 particles were measured for each fiber sample with a specific set offiber and
fibril definitions viz: "a particle composed ofat least two fibrils, the shorter being contiguous with
and comprising at least one-halfofthe first, was called a fiber; objects counted as fibers possessed
a length/width aspect ratio of at least 3:1; objects with smaller aspect ratios, composed of many
fibrils, were counted as clumps; single fibrils, ofany aspect ratio, including contiguous fibrils that
did not meet the fiber criterion, were called fibrils.". These fiber definitions are not standard but
would help to reduce inter-observer differences within that study. The minimum fiber length
UCAREF00009419
recorded was 0.1 urn but no fiber diameter measurements were reported. A separate record was kept ofthe fiber or fibril nature of each particle and the data were presented in separate tables for fibers and fibrils each classified by length. Yeager combined the data from the two tables ofLanger et aL and simplified the length classes but did not explain fully how the mass/number indices were obtained. The numbers of fibers per microgram of dose were calculated assuming an average fibril diameter of 0.0333 pm and an average fiber diameter of9 times this figure, i.e. 0.3 pm (Yeager did not explain that Langer et al had made this distinction). A particle with a diameter of0.3 pm would have to have a length ofat least 0.9 pm in order to be classed as a fiber but Yeager did not explain how the mass of fibers shorter than 0.9 pm were calculated even though Langer et al recorded more than 65% offibers in the range of 0.1 pm to 1 pm for the unmilled Calidria fiber. The assumptions made about the diameters to be used for these particles would have an influence on the calculated fiber numbers per milligram. Yeager et aL did not explain how the mass/number indices were calculated for the UICC chrysotile or what assumptions were made about the diameter distributions. They stressed the point about the absolute numbers of fibers in different length ranges in the actual doses used, correctly pointing out that 30% of 100,000 fibers is the same as 3% of 1,000,000 fibers. If this were genuinely the case for the fibers in this study then it might be very important However there are good grounds for suggesting that the problem was oversimplified and too many assumptions were madein the arguments. For example, it appears that Yeager assumed that the diameter distributions of the UICC and the Calidria fibers were the same. There are no grounds for this assumption and since the diameter is a controUing factor in the calculation ofnumbers offibers per unit mass it could make a critical difference. Yeager used the length distribution data from the paper by Timbrell (1970) as the source of fiber numbers of the UICC chrysotile A. However, in contrast to Langer, Timbrell carried out TEM analysis ofsamples co llected using a thermal precipitator dust sampling instrument from airborne dust clouds generated by a dust dispenser in a chamber. Timbrell did not describe his sample preparation methods but this dust generation and sampling method could not avoid some size selectivity for the sample as measured by TEM. Also Timbrell measured only particles greater than 0.2 pm, he provided no other indication of fiber counting criteria and made no distinction between fibers and fibrils.
UCAREF00009420
.
Table l shows how different assumptions about fiber diameters can produce radically different mass/number indices for. UICC chrysotile and Calidria chrysotile from Yeagers own length distributions. Fibers per unit mass forall fibers range from 1.4 million to 110 million for the UICC chrysotile and from 9.2 million to 540 million for the unmilled Calidria fibre. For fibers ionger than 5 pm the numbers range from about 3 50,000 to 28 million So iffiber numbers from Yeagers data were calculated using different assumptions about fiber diameter, then d*ifferent conclusions might be made about the absolute fiber numbers although because the assumptions are made equally for both fiber types the relative fiber numbers are the same. The Calidria chrysotile would still have the same number oflong fibers as the UICC chrysotile A, and still have more fibers ofall lengths. However, since there were no actual diameter distribution data, it is difficult to see how fiber number comparisons can be made, given the ranges shown above. Yeager et aL also cited a paper by Rendall (1970) with respect to the UICC asbestos minerals but they did not use the fiber length data ofRendall even though it was critically different from that of Timbrell (1970) and similar to the data for the untreated Calidria fiber ofLanger (1978). As with Timbrell the lower length limit for measurement offibers was 0.2 pm. The data from Gibbs and Hwang 1980, which are more amenable to fiber mass calculations, show how strong are the influences of the dimensions of a small proportion of the long, thick fibers measured and that the actual fiber dimensions measured are critical to the calculated numbers of fibers per unit mass. Ina pair ofairborne chrysotile samples from mining and bagging operations they found that fibers longer than 5 pm constituted only 1.3% and 3.94% ofthe fiber numbers but 3 9% and 59% of the mass of the fibers. Any assumptions about fiber dimensions, diameters or lengths, ofjust a small number of long fibers in the sample have a dominant effect on the fiber numbers calculated The total fiber numbers for these samples of 1.8 x 107 and 1.2 x 107 per milligram respectively are controlled mostly by the diameters and numbers of these few long fibers. The statement by Yeager that the numbers oflong fibers in the doses ofunmilled Calidria fiber and in the UICC chrysotile are the same despite the differences in the total fiber numbers is then really only a function ofthe assumptions made about fiber diameters used in the calculations. The lesser importance of the short fibers in this calculation and an indication that the apparent difference between the two fibers may be largely a result ofthe assumptions made by Yeager are shown by the following calculations. If25% offibers shorter than 1.0 pm are added to the data of
either Timbrell or Rendall and the fiber numbers per unit mass are recalculated then it shows that while the absolute fiber numbers increase dramatically (as expected) the numbers of long fibers per unit mass remain virtually the same.The numbers of long fibers per unit mass then are very insensitive to the fiber counting rules for short fibers or to the analytical methods that might influence the numbers ofthe finest and shortest fibers.
UCAREF00009421
These two data sets produced by different observers (Timbrell and Rendall, both intimately
involved in the production of the UICC asbestos) still differed by a factor of 2 despite apparently
using the same methods on the same samples, indicating that conclusions based upon differing
fiber numbers should be treated with caution.
*
Not only were the measurements offiber dimensions by Langer er aL and by Timbrell and Rendall
based upon different sample types and used different preparation procedures but they also used
different criteria for inclusion of fibers in the count. In addition to this, the same assumptions
about fiber sizes were wrongly applied to fiber populations with different length classes in
calculating fiber numbers in the doses. There was in fact no sound basis for making comparisons
of the size distributions or the fiber numbers of the UICC and the Calidria fibers and no basis for
discussions about the relevance offiber length to toxicity. The fact that large numbers (5x10*) of
fine Calidria chrysotile fibers were cytotoxic to human macrophages is scarcely surprising and the fact then that even larger numbers (1.15 x 10*') were more toxic is even less surprising.

To determine che fiber size and. distribution of Chrysotile fibers in 4
different samples of Calidria Chrysotile Asbestos using Transmission Electron Microscopy. The four samples being SG-130 (Standard Crade), RC-144 (High Purity Open), RG-244 and Short Fiber Chrysotile Ore.
2EU5:
_
The samples were prepared for analysis by water filtration while trying to disturb them as little as possible and thus attempting keep any ctiange in che fiber size of che sample co a minimum. A known amount of each sample was added to one liter of water and mildly shaken by hand co disperse che sample into suspension. A series of dilutions of each suspension was then filtered through 0.1pm pore size mixed cellulose eschar filters and prepared for TEM analysis using a modified Jaffa wash and acetone condensation wash. The different dilutions of each sample were chen evaluated for in che TEM for fiber loading and preparation acceptability, and one preparation was chosen for analysis.
Analysis begun on che selected preparation and proceeded until 400 fibrils were counted. Asbestos fibers which normally would be counted as complex structures (bundles, clusters or macrices), were examined closely and che individual fibrils which composed che structure were counted and measured individually as accurately as possible. The length and widths of che fibrils counted were measured at 20,000 and 60,000 magnification respectively. For each sample a morphology photomicrograph was taken of a typical fibril in each of three categories: s 5pm, > Spm but < 10pm and a 10pm. It was assumed chat all fibers in che samples were Chrysodle, therefore only one diffraction photomicrograph and EDXA spectra were obtained from each sample during che course of che analysis (che morphology of che fibers counted support this assumption).
After che analysis of samples SC*130, RC-144 and RG-244 were completed it was requested chat an additional sample be analyzed. This sample was a portion of RG244 which had not been created with silicon by che manufacturer. Also it was requested that che original sample of RG-244, which had been treated with silicon be reanalyzed after steps were taken co disperse che sample better. The original sample of RG-244 was immersed in an ulcrasonie bach for 30 minutes along with the new sample of RG-244. Both samples were refilcered and reanalyzed.
The short fiber chrysotile ore was analyzed using both PLM and TEM analysis. The course portion of che sample was first separated using a stereo microscope and forceps. The largest portion of this subsample was measure^ using the stereo
microscope and ruler until it was no longer feasible. At this point che portions of che sample were immersed in refractive index liquid and analyzed using Polarized Light Microscopy until 400 particles were counted and measured. The remaining finer portion of che sample was then separated into two similar samples. One of which was suspended in water and filtered while che other was mortared and immersed in an ultrasonic bath for 30 minutes before filtration. Boch samples were chen analyzed.

CALCULATIONS AND DEFINITIONS:
,
Fibers were distributed into different categories according to their length, width and aspect ratio. For che purposes of this report a fiber is defined as a particle possessing parallel sides and an aspect racio of 3:1 or greater where aspect ratio is defined as che numerical proportion of length to width with che width being defined as 1:
Aspect Ratio = *:1
A*w
where
x - che aspect racio
L - length of che fiber in microns (pm)
W - widch of che fiber (pm).
Note:
The larger che aspecc racio che longer che fiber.
Thus each sample has chree distributions, one each for their length, width and aspecc racio. The mean, mode and median of each of che sample's distributions was also calculated. The mean used in this report is che arithmetic mean and is defined as;
n
E
p-
n
where
p -- the arithmetic mean (lengch, widch or aspecc ratio)
n - the number of fibers counted
Xi-
che quantity of che i1* fiber (lengch, widch or aspecc racio)
i - che i* fiber.
The median is defined as che middle variate for a population of variates arranged in either increasing or decreasing order for a population with an odd number of variates and che arithmetic mean of che two middle variates if Che population has an even number of variates. The mode is the most frequently appearing variate in a population. In the report the mode is reported as an interval cacegory of either length, width or aspect racio.
Positive Skewness is defined as a distribution in which the majority of the population is smaller chan che mean, and the largest component is below che midpoint.

DISCUSSION:
/
In Che following discussion RG-244 SS will refer Co the preparation of the original silicon created RG-244 sample after ic had been ulcrasonicaced, RG-244 SN will refer to che original silicon created RG-244 sample which was not ulcrasonicaced and RC-244 NS will refer to che second RC-244 sample sane which was not created wich silicon and was ulcrasonicaced.
All three samples of che milled chrysotile which was originally submitted for
analysis were silicon treated. Analyses of these samples showed chat che fiber
lengths of SC-130 and RC-144 have similar mean and median values (Table II) wich SC-
130 (0.89 and 0.63) being slightly shorted chan RC-144 (1.10 and 0.70). This can
also be seen in comparison of their aspect ratios (Table V). Sample
RG-244 SN has mean and median fiber lengchs and aspect racios which are longer chan
either chose of SG-130 or RC-144, which can be seen in Tables II and V. Ic should
be noted that che mode of RG-144 and RG-224 SN are che same (0.S - 1.0) but che mode
of SC-130 is lower chan either of che ocher two original samples (0.0 - 0.5). The
mode of each of che chree original samples are lower chan either choir means or
medians which indicates chat all of these distributions are positively skewed. That
is che largest component of each sample Is smaller than eicher cheir mean or
midpoint.
`
Another sample of RG-244 (RG-244 NS) was submitted, this one was not silicon treated. This sample was ulcrasonicaced and analyzed. The original sample of silicon created RG-244 (RG-244 SS) was also ulcrasonicaced and reanalyzed. Table 11 and Table V show chat these cwo samples were shorter chan che original preparation of chis sample. All chree analyses of RG-244 are positively skewed, mosc of the fibers in the samples RG-244 SS and RC-244 NS were between aspecc racios 12 - 24 while sample RG-244 SN had ics largesc portion fall between 24 48.
In comparing efte chree different milled varieties of Chrysotile, sample RG-244 NS was used in comparison wich SG-130 and RG-144 because it possessed closest che average values from all chree RC-244 samples. Though shorter chan che original values obtained for RC-244, sample RG-244 NS is scill much longer than eicher SG-130 or RG-144 (See Tables II and V).
In comparing che finer porcion of che Short Fiber Ore, che sample which was not ulcrasonicaced yielded closest to a standard distribution though it was also positively skewed wich ics largesc component being in che range of 1.0 1.5 microns in lengch and 48 96 in aspecc ratio. The ulcrasonicaced sample is shorter and is also positively skewed wich its largesc component falling in the range of 0.5 1.0 microns in lengch but wich an aspecc ratio of 48 - 96 as in the non-ulcrasonicaced sample (Tables II and V).
All samples had approximately che same results for fiber width distributions. The means ranged from 0.042pm to 0.055pm, che medians ranged from 0.040pm to 0.054pm and ail samples had cheir largesc component in che range from 0.03 - 0.05 microns (Table IV).
Ail sample were comprised of at least 75% fibers t 5pm wich SG-130 and RG-144 having che largest components at 100% and 99% respectively. The chree RG-244 samples ranged from 75 co 89 percent with sample RC-244 SS having che greatest portions under 5pm followed sample RG-244 NS and RG-244 SN respectively (See Table

The course portion of the shore fiber ore is difficult to catagorize, the sample seems to be bi-modal with the primary mode of the length at 3.2 - 6.4 cm and the width at 0.0 - 0.1 cm. The secondary mode of the length distribution is at 0.0 0.1 cm and of the widch at 0.8 1.6. The aspect ratio has one primary mode at 1.3-3. Ic should be noted that the course portion of the ore in its natural state is approximacly 64% non-fibrous. Only 36% of the course particulate of this sample

OBJECTIVEL
V
To determine the fiber length and distribution of Chrysotile fibers in two unique samples of milled RG*246 Calidria Chrysotile asbestos, one treated with silicon, one untreated, by Transmission Electron Microscopy.
PROCEDURE:
The samples were prepared for analysis by water filtration and ultrasonic agitation
in order to disperse the sample as completely as possible. A known amount of each
sample was added to 500 ml of water and submersed in an ultrasonic bath for 30
minutes
to disperse the sample into suspension. A series of dilutions of
each suspension was then filtered through 0.1/tu pore size mixed cellulose esther
filters and prepared for TEM analysis using a modified Jaffe wash and acetone
condensation wash. The different dilutions of each sample suspension were then
evaluated for fiber Loading and preparation acceptability. Then one dilution of the
untreated sample was chosen for analysis while all dilutions of the silicon treated
samples were deemed unsuitable. The main problem evident in the treated sample was
that Che fibers clumped together and did not disperse sufficiently to allow
measurement of individual fibrils.
The silicon treated sample was they* resuspended in fresh water and ultrasonic agitation in excess of Che original suspension was applied. The results of the second suspension of this sample did not improve significantly <fo5n the first. The process was repeated with extended ultrasonication only to produce similar results. The silicon treated sample was then resuspended a fourth time in a fresh 500 ml of water and placed in a mechanical shaker for slow agitation for 3 hours. The suspension was then immersed in an ultrasonicated bath for 30 minutes, after which dilutions were made and filtered. The preparations were evaluated and deemed to be slightly better chan the previous three attempts and were used for the analysis of the silicon treated sample.
Analysis begun on the selected preparation and proceeded until 420 fibrils were counted. Asbestos fibers which normally would be counted as complex structures (bundles, clusters and matrices), were examined closely and the individual fibrils which composed the structure were counted and measured individually as accurately as possible. Complex structures which could not be accurately counted and measured as individual fibrils were discarded and not Included in the fiber analysis (there were a great deal of complex structures discarded in the silicon treated sample). The lengths of the fibrils counted were measured at 20,000 magnification.
CALCULATIONS AND DEFINITIONS:
Fibers were distributed into different categories according to their lengths, for the purposes of this report a fiber is defined as a particle possessing parallel sides and an aspect ratio of 3:1 or greater. Aspect ratio is defined as the numerical proportion of length to width with the width being defined as 1. Although JjQ fiber widths were not measured, fibers were observed on screen and particles which appeared to be close to the 3:1 fiber limit were measured in both length and width dimensions to verify the classification of the particle.

/TAI.CULATIQNS AMD DEFINITIONS (continued!:
The mean, median and mode were also calculated for each sample. The mean used in this report is the arithmetic mean and is defined as :
t x,
n_
n
.
where
p -- the arithmetic mean (length, width or aspect ratio)
n - the number of fibers counted
Xi- the quantity of the 1th fiber (length, width or aspect ratio)
i - the ith fiber.
The median is defined as the middle variate for a population of variates arranged in either increasing or decreasing order for a population with an odd number of variates and the arithmetic mean of Che two middle variates if the population has an even number of variates. The mode is the most frequently appearing variate in a population. In the report the mode is reported as an interval category of fiber lengths.
Positive Skewness is defined as a distribution in which the majority of the
population is, smaller than the mean, and the largest component is below the
midpoint.

REMARKS:
This report has been prepared for KCAC. Inc.. and is not intended to be relied upon by others. Any reproduction of the report is to be in its entirety. The samples have been submitted to ASTECO for analysis and E2 sample collection activity has been performed.
All aspect ratios are referred to by the length or x component, thus a graph category of 3 - 6 would correspond to a range of aspect ratios from 3:1 to 6:1.
All length bar graph x values correspond to the midpoint of a length range. An x x value of 1.75 would refer to a length range of 1.5 jim to 2.0 pm.
An assortment of graphs are included to help illustrate sample distributions and various samples comparisons.

The two sample, RG-244 silicon created and Non silicon created, show few major
differences, this can be clearly seen in Che Semi-Log Comparison of the two samples.
The only difference is in percentage of total fibers made up by the smallest
subdivision (0.0pm - 0.5pra), where there is clearly a greater percentage of the
smallest fibers present in the uncreated sample. The percentage of fibers 5pm are
comparable (89% in the silica treated sample and 92% in the untreated sample) and
the largest division (^lOprn) is identical in both samples.
^
The mean, and median fiber length of the untreated sample (1.83pm, 1.00pm) is noticeably lower chan chat of the silicon treated sample (2.22pm, 1.25pm) and while the mode for each sample was different, Che untreated sample possessed almost equal separation between the length categories 0.0pm 0.5pm and 0.5pm - 1.0pm which could possibly be considered to be one larger mode (0.0pm - 1.0pm) as a combination of the two smaller categories.

XtetraO--The size distributions of airborne chiyeocile fibres, associated with the processes of
aiding. spinning and weaving in an asbestos textile factory, have been evaluated by transmission cigcuoa microscopy. The distributions were approximately tog-oorrnaL with little change betwtea processes. Median lengths and diameters were 1.6 and (LOS pm, respectively.The results indicatethat tboul 40% of fibres would not be seen by scanning electron microscopy, under the usual conditions. ad an even larger proportion would be missed by optical microscopy. For fibres longer ihsn 3 pm, that,about 70% offibres would be seen by tbe scanning electron microscope. An optical microscope witha resolution of0.3 pm would see approximately one quarter ofaU fibres greaterthan this length.
INTRODUCTION
Transmission electron microscopy (TEM) allows the observation of even the smallest asbestos fibre (the chrysotile fibril), which can have a diameter as low as 0.01 pm (Gibbs and Hwang, 1975). The complete fibre size distribution of a sample of asbestos may iherefore be evaluated by TEM, in contrast to scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and optical microscopy, which in practice can only detect diameters much larger than ihe smallest asbestos fibres. TEM-derived size distribution data for asbestos manufacturing industries are rather scarce in the literature, probably because the analyses areexpensive compared with those by the other techniques. This paperreports TEM measurements of airborne chrysotile fibres in an asbestos textile factory.
Current mouiloring of airborne asbestos dust in factories (Health and Safety Executive. 1983) involve collecting the dust on membrane filters and counting fibres longer than 5 pm. according to certain rules, under a phase-contrast optical ( microscope (PCOM). The detection limit ofa good, correctly adjusted PCOM may be 0.13 pm (Rooker et aU 1982); however, under normal operating conditions, the " detection limit is not so low (Hwang and Wang, 1983; Ashcroft and Heppleston, 1973; Hwang and Gibbs. 1981) and we shall assume a limit of OJ pm.
Earlier work by Gibbs and Hwang (1975), using SEM, found that chrysotile fibres traded to be smaller in both length and diameter at later stages of processing. For carding in a textile plant, the median length and diameter were 1.0 and 0.15 pm. respectively; 23 % of fibres were longer than 5 pm. However, there is a possibility that tome fine fibres were lost in sample preparation (Walton, 1982). Moreover, because of

has reported TEM distributions for chrysotile mining and milling; his diameter* ui
lengths were considerably smaller.
METHOD
Static samples, collected on either Geiman DM Metricel DM450 or DM800 fifcaj...
(25 mm diameter), at flow rates of0.4 and 1.5 L min'1, respectively, were taken whlaj '
about 2 m of machines and the extraction systems associated with the
4
carding, spinning and weaving. Sampling times of 60 and 120 min were used.
The filters were mounted onto nickel. 200-mesh high-transmission TEM grids,
using the direct transfer technique (Burdett, 1983). Analysis was carried out on a
Philips EM400T analytical transmission electron microscope, equipped for energy,
dispersive X-ray analysis (EDXA) and for scanning (transmission) electron microscopy
(STEM).
The grid was first inspected at low magnification for an even distribution ofdeposit;
if it appeared uneven, the sample was rejected.
Only chrysolite was to be included in the study; chrysotile fibres were identified b\
their characteristic EDXA spectrum and morphology (Carton and Kalifer, 1980). A
note of any other fibres found was made so that they would not be included at a later
stage.
A fibre has in the past been defined, by the Health and Safety Executive, as a particle
having an aspect ratio greater than three and having parallel sides for most ofits length
Crossed fibres, fibre bundles, and piles offibres wereselected for measurementusing
the rules adopted in France (Carton and Kaufer, 1980); these rules are similar to
those in the European Directive method (Health and Safety Executive, 1983k
except for the requirement concerning parallel sides, and that fibres are not rqected on
the grounds of attachment to non-fibrous particles. Only fibres with diameters less than
3 /im. that is. respirable fibres, were included.
The unit counting area was one grid square of 55 /un side length. Between two and
ten randomly selected squares were analysed, such that, except for samples ofvery low
fibre density, a minimum of 100 fibres per grid were counted. Only those fibres wholly
in the counting area and those crossing either the upperside or the leftside and ending
in the field were included (Asbectosis Research Council. 1971k
A micrograph ofeach complete counting area was taken for reference. The fibresin
each area were then photographed at the higher magnification of 3600.- Since the
boundaries of the counting area were the electron-opaque grid bars, any fibres that
crossed one of the counting sides were photographed on the STEM facility in the
secondary electron imaging mode (various magnifications used).

The aspect ratio (true length/true diameter) was calculated for each fibre.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Fourteen samples were analysed: four from the spinning process, from which 424 hie fibres were measured, and five samples from each of carding and weaving,
bomwhich 519 and 495 fibres, respectively, were measured. Some non-chrysotile fibres terc observed but not included in the study.
Means and standard deviations, both arithmetic and geometric, and the median tahiesibr each of the parameters, true fibre length, true diameter and aspect ratio, for thethreeprocesses, carding, spinning and weaving, are summarized in Table 1. Figures I to 3 show the cumulative frequency distributions for each process.
Figure 4 summarizes the individual sample details: these graphs show that there little variation between samples.
The frequency distributions were approximately log-normal. Comparison of the diitnbutions shows that there was little variation between processes. The group means.

Airborne size distributions may be a function of the fibre characteristics, such as

Jeffrey Mine and Coalinga Mine chrysoliie. two asbestos samples prepared for experi mental research by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences, and the UICC B chrysotile reference sample have been characterized in the aerosolized state using gravimetric measurements. light microscopy, scanning electron microscopy, and x-ray energy spectrometry. These methods revealed (1) a greater " respirable" mass fraction in the Jeffrey and U1CC 8 preparations compared to the Coalings sample. (2) for fibers greater than 3 nm in length and less than 3 pm in diameter. Jeffrey Mine chrysolite contained a significantly greater fraction of fibers longer than 40 pm in length compared to the UICC B or Coalinga Mine chrysolites, and (3) Jeffrey and UICC B chrysolite contained no libers or fiber clusters which exceeded 2 pm in diameter while Coalinga chrysotile contained numer ous fibers and fiber clusters which were greater than 2 pm in diameter. The characterization of these chrysolite preparations in the aerosolized state, in particular the Coalinga Mine chrysotile. demonstrated different fiber length and Sber width distributions when compared with previous characterizations of samples that had been dispersed in a liquid medium by ultrasonification. These observations emphasize the importance of determining the size distribution offibers in the aerosolized state for inhalation studies and the size distribution of fibers in a liquid suspension for oral ingestion, instillation, or injection studies. Because of differences in length-width distributions, each of the studied chrysotile preparations would be expected to have different patterns of deposition in the alveolar regions of the lung after an inhalation exposure.
INTRODUCTION
There is increasing evidence that asbestos-induced pulmonary fibrosis and neoplasia are due to the physical and chemical characteristics of the inhaled fibers (Wagner, 1965: Seaton, 1975; Stanton and Layard, 1978: Pott, 1978). This makes it important to use well-characterized fiber preparations in experimental research to more clearly identify those factors leading to lung injury. The purpose of this paper is to describe two new samples of chrysotile which have been prepared for experimental research by the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences (NIEHS). A third chrysotile, UICC B, has also been characterized in this paper.

characteristics op aerosolized chrysotile

Chrysotile represents over 90% of the world's asbestos production and is ubiq uitous in our environment. The properties of Ore retardance, chemical inertness, tensile strength, and flexibility make chrysotile important in numerous applica-' tions such as insulation, ceiling tiles, brake linings, and cement products. These utilizations of asbestos enhance the frequency of inhalation of chrysotile by people not directly involved with the mining or processing of this material. Chrysotile is a member of the serpentine, family of minerals, whereas all other asbestos minerals belong to the amphibole family (Sinclair, 1959). Mechanical agitation of chrysotile can lead to disruption of the fiber at weak points along the fiber. This disruption can cause the fiber to "open up" into its fibrillar subunits, creating new fibers of smaller diameter and/or shorter length, fibers with splayed ends, fibers with an uneven diameter along the length, or combinations of the above (Assuncao and Com, 1975). These features make chrysotile more complex to analyze in terms of fiber size and number than the amphibole types of asbestos in which fibers are basically straight and uniform in diameter.
The characterization of a chrysotile preparation in terms of particle and fiber size distribution is influenced by a number of factors. These include (1) the state in which the chrysotile is found, i.e., in bulk, in suspension, or in an aerosol. (2) the method of sample collection, i.e.. on a slide or filter, (3) the manner in which the collected sample is prepared for examination, i.e., by utirasonification. transfer or direct preparation of the filter or slide, (4) the instrument used to measure the particles and fibers in the sample, i.e., the optical microscope, transmission elec tron microscope, or scanning electron microscope, and (5) the criteria used for defining fibers, i.e.. a minimum fiber length, a 3 to l aspect ratio, or characteristics of fiber morphology.
Characterization of chrysotile in the aerosolized state has been done for the U1CC A and B reference samples (Timbrell. 1970a: Beckett, 1973). Two new research samples of chrysotile have been prepared in bulk (approximately 1000 pounds of each) and are available for experimental research through the National Institute of Environmental Health Sciences. Research Triangle Park. North Carolina. These new preparations (Jeffrey and Coaiinga chrysotile) have been characterized for elemental composition, mineral composition, particle surface area and density, and thermal properties using optical emission spectrography, x-ray diffraction, thermogravimetry, pycnometry, and a number of petrographic microscopic techniques (Campbell et al., 1980). Particle size analysis has been done with samples dispersed in a liquid medium in which measurements of fiber length and diameter were made (Wylie, 1979; Campbell ei al., 1980; Siegrisl and Wylie, 1980). Particle size analysis of these preparations in the aerosolized state was not done. The purpose of this study is to characterize in the aerosolized state the Jeffrey and Coaiinga chrysotile preparations along with the UICC B reference sample. To characterize each preparation, gravimetric dust measurements, optical microscopy, scanning electron microscopy (SEM), and x-ray energy spectrometry .were used. Information obtained using these techniques has helped identify char acteristics of these asbestos preparations which may influence their deposition
S' em when inhaled as an aerosol and which could potentially contribute to their Ley to cause pulmonary injury.

MATERIALS ANO METHODS
Fiber Preparations
_
Chrysotile samples were obtained from (he following locations: the Coalinga
Mine in California (Union Carbide), the Jeffrey Mine in Quebec, Canada
(Johns-Manville), and the Canadian reference sample prepared by the Interna*
tional Union Against Cancer (UICC B). A brief history for each preparation is
given.
*
Coalinga Mine fiber. Identified as COF-25, this unique form of chrysotile is
obtained from the New Idria serpendnite mass located in the Diablo range in
California. The deposit is unusual in that the fibers are randomly oriented as a
mat, rather than as parallel fibers running in veins, and the mining process is done
with bulldozers. The deposit is almost pure chrysotile. The fibers are short in
length and are not of spinning grade. Because of the absence of long fibers in this
chrysotile, a great deal of interest has been generated in using this chrysotile as a
"short-range fiber'* preparation.
Preparation of this short fiber material for experimental research was done in
the following manner. The ore from the mine was first screened to remove con*
laminating rocks. From this point the material was processed in water as a slurry
of 196 solids and 99% water. The slurTy was passed through a grinder and a
magnetic separator three times to open the fiber bundles and to remove any
iron-containing minerals. Between each grinding the slurry was passed through a
particle size separator (hydroclone) under pressure. The aqueous slurry was ro
tated inside the hydroctone forming a vortex. Heavy particles escape from the
hydroclone through a side port located near the bottom of the hydrocione. These
coarse particles were reground and put through the hydroclone again. The light
particles leave the hydrocione through a side port located near the top of the
vortex. These particles were fed into a series of hydrociones in which the top exit
ports (overflow port) are progressively smaller to allow for the collection of finer
and finer chrysotile fibers. The final hydrocione port had an external diameter of
25 mm from which the chrysotile preparation was collected. (For industrial pur
poses the final hydrocione port is usually six inches (personal communication.
Asbestos Group, Union Carbide, Niagara Falls, N.Y.).)
Langer et al. (1978) described in detail a chrysotile sample also obtained from
the Coalinga Mine deposit, referred to as Calidria RG-144. The differences be
tween COF-25 and RG-144 are a result of the differences in the processing of the
raw material. COF-25 has a finer particle size than RG-144. This finer particle size
is a result of differences in the pressure, vortex characteristics, and overflow port
diameters used in the hydrocione. COF-25 is not derived from RG-144 by farther
grinding or pellet milling.
Jeffrey Minefiber. Identified as Plastibest-20, this form of chrysotile is a grade 4
asbestos used by the plastics industry. The fibers run in parallel bundles, oriented
crosswise in veins in serpentine rock and for this project were purified by roller
milling and air separation using standard industrial techniques. The final fiber
preparation by volume is greater than 98% chrysotile (Campbell et al.. 1980).
Preparation of the material for experimental research was accomplished by pas
sing the material through a hurricane pulverizer three times to open fiber bundles.

CHARACTERISTICS OF AEROSOLIZED CHRYSOT1LE

UICC B chrysolite reference sample. Tbis preparation is a grade 4 chrysotiie (Timbreil et al.. 1968) obtained from eight different Canadian chrysotiie mines and mixed according to the proportional production of each mine during the year of 1950. The approval of this preparation was made in 1966 by the Union Inter* nationale Contre Cancer (UICC) to standardize asbestos samples used in expetimental research. The literature is replete with information regarding the physical and chemical makeup of this chrysotiie preparation (Timbreil et al.. 1968: Tim* brell, 1970a. b: Rendall, 1970. 1980: Morgan and Cralley, 1973; Beckett, 1973). We have reexamined UICC B chrysotiie in the aerosolized state with a twofold pur pose: (1) to compare our results for the UICC B fiber size distribution with those found in prior studies in the literature, and (2) to correlate the size distribution of the Coalinga and Jeffrey Mine fibers to the UICC chrysotiie fiber preparations available for experimental inhalation research. No manipulation of these chrysotiie preparations was done prior to aerosolizing the fibers.
Fiber Aerosolization
A modified Timbreil generator (Timbreil, 1968) was used to create a dust cloud within a 5-m*-stainless steel-exposure chamber. Each asbestos preparation was hand compressed with a plunger in a 2.8 x 9.0-cra cylinder to form a plug. This was mechanically advanced into the pathway of a blade rotating 1500 rpm to create an aerosol of fibers within the dispersing bowl of the generator. A copper tube connecting the dispersing bowl to the exposure chamber facilitated the pas sage of aerosolized fibers into the exposure chamber. The concentration of the asbestos dust cloud was regulated by adjustment of the airflow through the expo sure chamber. This resulted in the flow of air being maintained between 200 to 400 liters per minute.
Total Dust Mass Concentration
Once the exposure chamber had stabilized (normally after 1 hr of dust genera tion), a gravimetric measurement of the dust concentration within the exposure chamber was made. This was accomplished by sampling 100 liters of chamber air drawn through a 0.8-jum Nudeopore filter housed within a Gelman filter holder. The sample time was 10 min at a flowrate of 10.0 liters per minute.
Respirable Mass Concentration
The respirable mass concentration in the exposure chamber for each chrysotiie preparation was measured using two different instruments: a Casella sampler and a Cascade impactor. The term "respirable mass concentration'' is arbitrary in that it was decided by totally different parameters for each apparatus used. Using the Caseila sampler, a gravimetric estimate of the respiratory mass concentration was made by collecting fibers and particles with an equivalent aerodynamic diam eter of 7.1 ptn or less on a glass fiber filter. Fibers and particles larger than this equivalent diameter were prevented from depositing on the filter by a multichan nel horizontal elutriator. Each sample was collected over a 6-hr period at a flow rate of 2.5 liters per minute with the Casella sampler placed inside the exposure chamber.
Using the Cascade impactor, the respirable mass concentration was defined to
UCAREF00009462
t
36 PINKERTON ET AL.
include filters on which the majority (>50%) of fibers collected were less than 10
Itm in length. This was determined by examination of the filter by optical micros
copy. This respirable mass was obtained by using precutter stages in the Cascade-
impactor to eliminate the longer and thicker fibers and by adjusting the flowrate to
obtain a fiber size distribution (cut point) of 10 mui or less in length.
The volume of air sampled through the Cascade impactor was 200 liters. A total
sample mass was also collected on the same day by sampling 0.2 m3 of chamber air
at a flowrate of 10.5 liters per minute for 19 min 3 sec using the same setup minus
the Cascade impactor. All gravimetric measurements were expressed in mg/m3.
Gravimetric measurements of the respirable mass collected in the Cascade impac
tor were done for the Jeffrey and Coalinga Mine preparations only, because of the
known similarity between Jeffrey and UICC B chrysotile.
-
Collection of Fiber Samples
The same apparatus Used to collect samples for dust concentration mea surements was also used to collect fiber samples. Samples to be analyzed by light microscopy were collected on Millipore-type AAWP membrane filters at a flow rate of 0.1 liters per minute for 3 to 5 min depending upon the chamber concentra tion of the chrysotile preparation. Before use, the filters were treated in a 0.1% solution of Hyamin 2389 and dried at room temperature overnight to prevent static charging of the filter. Samples analyzed by scanning electron microscopy were collected on a 0.2-^m Nucleopore filter for 2 sec and 5 sec at a flowrate of 10 liters per minute.
Preparation of Filters for Examination
Light microscopy. After sampling, the filter was placed on a 25 x 75-mm glass microscope slide, sample side down. The filter was cleared by holding the slide over an evaporadng flask of boiling acetone. After clearing, a drop of glyceroltriacetate (Permount) was placed on the dissolved filter and a cover slip applied.
Electron microscopy. Filters were secured to the polished side of a Gough planchet with carbon paint and were gold coated. The thickness of the gold coat was 100 to 150 nm.
Fiber Characterization
Light microscopy. A Beckett G22 graticule was used. At 300x, the magnifica tion used for sizing and counting, the graticule was a square, 100 Mm on each side, rhe lattice on the graticule had a spacing of 5 pxa in one direction and 3 Mm in the perpendicular direction. The following rules were used for fiber characterization: All fibers counted had at least a 3 to 1 length-to-diameter ratio (aspect ratio). Only fibers 5 Mm in length or longer were counted. A fiber bundle which met the 3 to 1 aspect ratio requirement was counted as a fiber. Bundles with a diameter greater than 3 Mm were not counted. Only fibers whose midpoint was located within the graticule were counted. At least 200 fibers were counted from 20 to 100 random graticule fields for each filter sample. The characterization of each chrysotile preparation by light microscopy was based upon measurements from filters col lected on a daily basis (5 days/week for 12 months). ^ Electron microscopy.

was 10.000. To facilitate measurement of long fibers and fiber width, magnifica tions ranging from 1200 to 18.000X were used. Counting' and sizing of panicles were done directly on the electron microscope screen. Only particles whose mid point fell within the area of the viewing screen were analyzed. This procedure essentially reduced all particles to points, thus causing every particle to have an equal probability of being counted. To assure accuracy in measurement, a stan dard was made consisting of latex beads 1.099 nm in diameter on a 0.2-Mtn Nucleopore filter. The filter and beads were gold coated and used to verify the mag nification prior to each counting session. The area of the filter analyzed consisted of bands randomly selected across portions of the filter. A field was randomly selected at 10.000 magnification and then moved to the right. Several bands were counted per filter and a range of 4 to 8 filters was analyzed for each chrysotile preparation.
The following three categories were used to characterize the material on the filters for each of the chrysotile preparations:
(1) Fiber (a) At least a 3 to 1 aspect ratio was required, (b) Generally, a fiber was cylinder-shaped with a uniform diameter. However, a slight separation of the fibrils along any section of the fiber or at the ends was permissible, (c) The diameter of the fiber was measured at the widest portion of the fiber whether it occurred at the end or at some point along the fiber, (d) Smaller fibrils solidly attached to the major body of the fiber constituted a portion of the fiber. It was not counted as a separate fiber. The diameter of the fiber would be measured at this point if it constituted the widest portion of the fiber.
(2) Fiber duster (a) A fiber mass with at least a 3 to I aspect ratio was re quired. (b) It was composed of small fibrils usually oriented in the same direction, but partially separated. Separation of fibrils may occur at any point along the length of the bundle or cluster, (c) The diameter of the cluster was measured at its greatest combined width along the fiber mass. A fiber cluster usually has a more variable width than a "fiber."
(3) Nonfibrous particle: (a) Any panicle with less than a 3 to 1 aspect ratio, (b) The longest dimension was measured as well as the greatest perpendicular mea surement.
Fiber "fiocs" or dumps were also occasionally present on the filter consisting of tangled fibers and fiber dusters. These were not analyzed because their com plexity prevented accurate separation into individual fibers and fiber clusters.
Representative fibers, clusters, and nonfibrous panicles were analyzed for ele mental composition using x-ray energy spectrometry for each chrysotile prepara tion. Each particle was analyzed for the presence of an element by a scoring system ranging from 0 to 4+. At 10,000 x, 50 nonfibrous particles whose mid points fell within the viewing area of a randomly selected band across the filter were analyzed. In addition, the magnesium-to-silicon ratio was determined for all particles containing these two elements.

,* and the Cascade impactor. When comparing the ratio of the respirable mass concentration to the total dust concentration found in the exposure chamber, the Jeffrey Mine chrysolite and UTCC B chrysolite have a relatively high percentage of respirable material based upon the Casella sampler measurements (87% for the Jeffrey chrysolite and 76% for the UICC B chrysolite). The ratio of the respirable mass concentration to the total mass concentration is significantly lower for Coalinga Mine chrysoiile (42%). Using the Cascade impactor a substantially smaller fraction of the total dust concentration was found to be respirable. For the Jeffrey fiber 21% of the total dust concentration was respirable and 5% of the total
dust concentration was respirable for the Coalinga fiber.
Fiber Characterization--Light Microscopy '
Table 2 lists the percentage of fibers found for each given length interval by light microscopy for each of the three chrysotile preparations. Fibers greater than 100 jam in length and less than 3 Mm in diameter were found in each preparation. The percentage of fibers present from 5 to 30 fim in length was similar for ail three aerosolized preparations with greater than 70% of all counted fibers falling within this length interval. For the fiber-lengch intervals of 40-50, 50-100. and greater than 100 mih, the percentage of fibers contained within each of these length inter* vals was significantly greater (P < 0.05) for the Jeffrey Mine preparation than for either the UICC B preparation or the Coalinga Mine preparation.

fiber clusters, each as a separate category. The fibers and fiber clusters are ex pressed as numbers counted per length interval, the percentage of the total found in each length interval, the cumulative percentage, and the mean diameter of fibers or fiber clusters in each length interval. The fibers and fiber clusters for each preparation are also expressed in terms of their respective aspect ratios in Tables 3-5.
A comparison of Tables 3--5 demonstrates that the mean diameter of fibers or fiber clusters for any given length interval is similar for the Jeffrey and U1CC B preparations. There was no fiber or fiber cluster measured in either the Jeffrey or UICC B preparation that exceeded 2 jun in diameter. The aspect ratio increased for both fibers and fiber clusters with increasing length in the Jeffrey and UICC B preparations. The Coalinga preparation has a similar mean fiber and fiber cluster diameter below the 5jtm length interval. However, for fibers and fiber clusters longer than 5 fim in length, the mean diameter in the Coalinga preparation is significantly greater for both fibers and fiber dusters compared to the Jeffrey and UICC B preparations. In general, as the fiber or fiber cluster length increased in the Coalinga preparation, the width also increased. The presence of "thick" fibers

tit diameter and greater than 5 m in length. The criteria for fiber-Tiber cluster counting by scanning electron microscopy includes fibers of ail lengths and diam eters so long as they possess at least a 3 to 1 aspect ratio. By these standards. 75% of the fiber-fiber clusters in the aerosolized Jeffrey and UICC B preparations counted by scanning electron microscopy would not have been counted by optical microscopy. For the aerosolized Coalinga preparation, 60% of the fiber-fiber clusters would not have been counted by optical microscopy (10% of the total fiber-fiber cluster number exceeded the 3-jxm-diameter limit and 50% of the total fiber-fiber cluster number was less than 5 fta in length).
Nonfibrous Particle Analysis
The elements detected in the 50 randomly selected nonfibrous particles for each chrysolite preparation are shown in Table 6. One half of the nonfibrous panicles analyzed in the Jeffrey and UICC B preparation samples demonstrated the pres ence of magnesium and silicon only. The magnesium-to-silicon ratio for fibers and fiber clusters analyzed in all three preparations ranged from 0.62 to 1.34. Although not a means of identification, panicles with a Mg-to-Si ratio in this range are likely to represent fragments of chrysolite. The percentage of panicles possessing the same Mg-to-Si ratio as chrysotiie is 40% in the Jeffrey Mine preparation, 52% in the UICC B reference sample! and 20% in the Coalinga Mine preparation. The particles with low magnesium-to-silicon ratios of 0.30 to 0.40.-found only in the Jeffrey Mine aerosolized sample, may represent talc particles.
DISCUSSION
Two of the chrysotiie preparations designed for experimental research and characterized in this study have not been previously studied in the aerosolized state. UICC B chrysotiie has been studied extensively by both Timbrell (1970a) and Beckett (1973) in the aerosolized state. To fit the Coalinga Mine and Jeffrey Mine samples into the spectrum of chrysotiie preparations available for experi mental inhalation research, UICC B chrysotiie was used as a reference to link the present study to the work carried out by other investigators, in particular, the aerosolizarion studies of Timbrell and Beckett. Although differences exist in the manner of fiber collection from the dust chambers and in the preparation and analysis of samples, the studies of Timbrell and Beckett on UICC B are compara ble to the present study (Table 7). By light microscopy we found a greater propor tion of the fibers falling into longer fiber length intervals than did the studies of Beckett and Timbrell. This difference may reflect differences in fiber preparation and/or counting techniques. By electron microscopy, the results of this study for UICC B chrysotiie are nearly identical to those of Timbrell for the distribution of fiber lengths. Beckett (1973) used SEM to determine fiber length and evaluated only fibers longer than 5 f*m. When our present results were recalculated and expressed in a similar fashion (Table 7), we found a similar pattern, but propor tionally fewer long fibers than did Beckett. Some of these differences may be due to differences in the manner in which the aerosols were generated and the samples
collected. The Jeffrey Mine and Coalinga Mine chrysotiles have been elegantly analyzed

by others using the sample preparation technique of fiber dispersion in a liquid medium (Wylie. 1979: Campbell et al., 1980: Siegrist and Wylie. 1980). This type of analysis is satisfactory for studies in which the preparations are to be ingested or injected in suspension. However, these studies do not provide an adequate characterization of the asbestos preparations for inhalation studies since the pro cess of aerosolization is generally less efficient in fiber dispersion. A case in point is the Coalinga Mine chrysotile preparation. This asbestos preparation was characterized by Campbell et al. (1980) using fiber samples which were dispersed in a liquid medium by ultrasonification for 10 min. The samples were analyzed by transmission electron microscopy. They found that 2.1% ^f the total chrysotile

panicles analyzed were greater than 10 pin in length and had a mean diameter of 0.42 iim. In the present study using aerosolized samples drawn directly upon Nucleopore filters and subsequently gold coated, it was found that 34.0% of the combined fibers and fiber clusters or 28.1% of all panicles (fibers, fiber clusters, and nonfibrous panicles) in the Coalinga preparation were greater than 10 nm. in length and had a mean diameter of 2.92 /im. In a subsequent study by Siegrist and Wylie (1980), the Coalinga preparation (referred to as short-range chrysotile) was characterized for panicle size distribution by both transmission and scanning electron microscopy. The samples were prepared by hand swirling in distilled water and dishwashing liquid (for SEM analysis) and-by ultrasonification in water for 10 min (for TEM analysis). The results demonstrated that by both SEM and TEM more than 90-93% of the panicles were less than 10 /am in length and more than 93% of the panicles were less than 1 pm in diameter. In our study using aerosolized samples 71.9% of the total number of panicles were less than 10 pm in length and 68% of the total number of particles were less than 1 pm in diameter.
The differences between these two methods of sample preparation and analysis

suggest that either uitrasoniflcaiion breaks down fiber bundles into smaller bun* dies and fibrils or that fibers tend to cluster in the aerosolized state. Other inves tigators have shown that uitrasonification can result in the breakdown of chrysotile into smaller fibers (Spumy er al., 1980). In addition, clustering of fibers caused by the aerosolization does not seem likely since the Jeffrey and UICC B chrysotile preparations collected in the same manner as the Coaiinga chrysotile have distinctly different particle size distributions from that seen in the aerosolized Coaiinga preparation. The illustration of each fiber preparation on the Nucleopore filters (Fig. 4) also show a distinct fiber morphology for the Coaiinga chrysotile compared to the Jeffrey and UICC B chrysotile.
Some of the differences between each of the chrysotile preparations were also reflected by the gravimetric measurements taken of each chrysotile aerosol in the exposure chambers. Comparisons made between each chrysotile preparation of the ratio of respirable mass concentration to total mass concentration demonstrate a distinct difference between the Coaiinga chrysotile and the other two prepara tions of Jeffrey and UICC B chrysotile. It would appear that compared to the Jeffrey and UICC B fibers the Coaiinga preparation contains a greater proportion of particles which are captured in the elutriator system of the Casella sampler and in the precutter stages of the Cascade iropactor. These fibers and particles are captured because of their greater mass.
Using scanning electron microscopy we found that the range of diameters of fibers and fiber clusters was greater for the Coaiinga preparation than for the Jeffrey and UICC B preparations in the aerosolized state. The trend of increasing diameter with increasing length was found only in the Coaiinga preparation. Fi bers and fiber clusters greater than 10 pm in length with diameters exceeding 2 pm were present in the aerosolized Coaiinga preparation while in the Jeffrey and UICC B preparations no fiber or fiber cluster of any length exceeded 2 pm in diameter.
The characterization of chrysotile in the aerosolized state in terms of fiber length and fiber diameter is paramount in understanding the nature of any prepa ration used for inhalation studies. Although the physical characteristics of a fiber may not be the only factor in causing lung injury, fiber diameter and, to a lesser degree, fiber length play key roles in the potential for a fiber to reach the alveolar regions of the lung where injury as a result of asbestos inhalation appears to be more severe.
The potential for each of these chrysotile preparations to cause lung injury by inhalation can be best assessed by a review of what is known about the physical characteristics a fiber must possess in order to reach the alveolar portions of the lung. Spherical particles below a certain diameter (approximately 3-4 pm) can reach the alveolar airspaces of the lung (Lippman and Albert. 1969). Larger parti cles are eliminated by deposition in the upper airways primarily through sedimentation and impaction as a result of their greater mass. Timbrell. Harris and Fraser have examined the more complex aerodynamic properties of fibers by comparing the deposition pattern of fibers to those of artificial spheres (Timbrell. 1965). In general they fouad that fibers have a similar deposition pattern to that of spheres of three to four times greater diameter. This would suggest that fibers

much greater than l pm in diameter would not be likely to reach the alveolar
airspaces although the curvature of the fiber should also, be taken into considera tion (Timbrell. 1970b). Additional studies have shown that an equivalent fiber diameter of 0.5 to 2.0 pm results in deposition within respiratory bronchioles and proximal alveolar ducts, while fibers of smaller equivalent diameters result in maximal deposition in the more distal portions of the lung (Harris and Fraser,
1970). Pooley and Gark (1979) measured the diameter of chrysolite fibers recov ered firom lung specimens after tissue digestion. They found that only 0.00% of the fibers had a diameter exceeding 0.5 pm. Although it is possible that these chrysotile fibers have fragmented longitudinally while in vivo (Suzuki and Churg, 1909), these results suggest that few fibers with a diameter greater than 0.5 pm reach the alveolar regions of the lung. If this limit in fiber diameter is true for alveolar lung deposition and the length of the fiber plays the major role in Ebiogenesis and cell injury, the potential for the three asbestos preparations reported
in this study to cause lung injury by inhalation wUl be different. Only the Jeffrey and UICC B chrysotile preparations have fibers which are less than 0.0 pm in diameter when length is greater than 30 pm. The Coalinga Mine chrysotile does not possess this property; instead, with increasing fiber length, fiber diameter also increases. Most fibers longer than 20 pm in length in the aerosolized Coalinga
preparations are also greater than 0.0 pm in diameter. Thus, in an inhalation study, more fibers of greater length distribution would be deposited in the alveolar region of the lungs for che Jeffrey and UICC B chrysotile preparations than for the Coalinga chrysotile preparation.
At this point one may ask the question, what constitutes a short-range fiber prepa ration? We have seen that the Coalinga preparation originally thought to be a shortfiber preparation contains numerous long fibers in the aerosolized state. The answer to this question should be based on the potential of a fiber to reach the alveolar regions of lung. In other words, is the fiber respirable? The work of investigators who have studied the aerodynamic properties of fibers (Timbrel!, 1965, 1973) and the physical dimensions of respired fibers (Pooley and Gark. 1979), would suggest that the Coalinga chrysotile in the aerosolized state repre sents a short-fiber preparation since only fibers less than 30 pm in length are likely to be respirable. In contrast, the Jeffrey and UICC B chrysotile preparations contain fibers greater than 30 pm in length possessing a diameter which would permit penetration of the fiber into the alveolar regions of the lung. Based on these observations, the Coalinga Mine chrysotile preparation can be considered to rep resent a "shorter" fiber preparation in the aerosolized state.
In summary, the three chrysotile preparations characterized in the aerosolized state in this study demonstrated distinct properties. Gravimetric measurements of each chrysotile preparation revealed that both the Jeffrey and UICC B prepara tions have a significantly greater portion of the total chamber dust concentration which is respirable compared to the Coalinga preparation. By light microscopy it was found that for fibers greater than 5 pm in length, the Jeffrey preparation in the aerosolized state has a significantly greater fraction of fibers exceeding 40 pm in length than does UICC B chrysotile or Coalinga chrysotile. Finally, by scanning electron microscopy it was found that the Jeffrey and UICC B preparations pos-

sess fibers and fiber clusters which cross a large length range (the longest mea sured was 150 uta). but none which exceeded 2 jun in diameter. The Coalinga preparation also possessed fibers and fiber clusters across a similar length range, but many exceeded 2 jim in diameter. In terms of respirability, the Jeffrey and UICC B aerosolized fibers constitute a mixed short-range and long-range fiber prepa ration, while the Coalinga aerosolized fibers represent a somewhat shorvfiber prepa ration in which very long respirable fibers are not present. In applying the above fiber characterization studies to experimental research it is essential to remember that further manipulation of these chrysotile preparations by grinding (Langer et at., 1978) or by fiber separation techniques may alter the fiber size distribution from that presented in this paper.

. Summary
**
The resulcs of intrapericoneal administration indicate that the asbestos products studied produced fibroelc lesions of che visceral organs in rats and guinea pigs regardless of fiber length. Of the three products* CMS-100 (refined fiber)* produces the most severe reaction. JT-100 (standard fiber) and JM-3K
(Johns Manville screened fiber) produced similar but less severe reactions. The resulcs on rabbits were inconclusive.
-
Both JT-100 and CMS-100 produced specific lesions in rats by che intra
tracheal route but wich JT-100 they were more severe. No lesions were found in
che rats which received JM-3K fibers'.
.
> These resulcs indicate chat these three asbescos fibers may be fibrogenlc by either roucc. No specific lesions were observed in che lungs of the JM-3K intratracheal rats, but only two rats survived to be examined.

Intraoeritoneal Inlections
Methods
Hie JH-3K asbestos was brushed through a 1 nun. screen to reduce its fiber length to < 1000 micra (1.0 nun.) in order to facilitate dosing. The- CMS--100 and JT-100 asbestos samples were used as received. Each asbestos product was pre pared as a 2.52 (W/V) suspension in 0.852 saline. All needles, syringes and suspensions were sterilized prior to use. The animals were divided into three groups--each consisting of eleven male albino guinea pigs (?), six male albino. rats (R), and two male albino Mew Zealand rabbits (H). The guinea pigs and rab bits received incraperitoneal injections of 2 ml. (50 mg.) and the rats, 1 ml. . (25 mg.) of the respective asbestos suspensions. Eleven guinea pigs' and six rats received control incraperitoneal injections of saline. There were no rabbit controls. All injections were made in the lover right quadrant of the abdomen. Tables 29-92 through 29-95 contain the results on individual animals.
Results
CMS-100 produced the most severe reaction in the form of granulomas with giane cells in six of the seven guinea pigs examined micropachologically. Typical granulomas with giant cells were observed in three of four rats and the one rabbit.
JT-100 asbestos fiber produced a granulomatous reaction in all of the 8 guinea pigs as well as the one rat subjected to micropathological examination. The rabbits had incidental lesions unrelated to the asbestos fibers.
The JM-3K. asbestos fibers produced granulomas with fibers visible in five of the five guinea pigs examined. One of two rats had granuloma formation which was visible on gross examination.
Methods
Intratracheal In-lections
One per cent (W/V) suspensions of JT-100, CMS-100 JM-3K and a 0.52 suspension of CMS-100 were prepared in 0.852 saline as for the intraperitoneal injections.

Report 29-55 Page 3
Famals albino rats weighing in excess of 200 grams were given 1 ml. of the respective asbestos suspensions by intratracheal injection. The rats were anesthetized with saturated vapor of anhydrous diethyl-ether. The trachea was exposed by blunt dissectiou and the injection was made directly and the incision dosed with a Midliael Wound Clamp.
Eight rats were injected with 1 ml. of a 1Z JT-100 suspension (10 mg.
asbestos). Eight rats were injected with 1 mi. of a 1Z JM-3K suspension (10
rag. asbestos). Because uf Ilia flocculcnt properties of CMS-100, only three rats
were dused with 1 ml. of a 1% suspension (10 mg. asbestos). Eight rats were
injected with 1 ml. of a 1Z CMS-100 suspension (5 mg. asbestos). Six rats injected
with physiological saline served as controls. Tables 29-96 through 29-99 contain
results on individual animals.

Results
*
Specific lesions were found in most of the rats given CMS-100 and JT--100
thac consisted of marked granuloma formation with bluish foreign body material
present (magnetite?). Marked bronchiolitis obliterans was noted in most rats, also .
with bluish foreign body material within the lesions. The JT-100 rats had a more
severe fibrotic reaction to this foreign material. Multinucleate giant cells
were a common feature with the granulomas of the JT-100 rats but were conspicu
ously absent in the lungs of the rats.given CMS-100. Micropathology was performed
on only two rats receiving JM-3K asbestos. Neither of these animafs had lesions
similar to JT-100 or CMS-100.

Sample
A 500-gram sample of Resin Crade RG 244 CCC Cslidrie Asbestos was received
11-30-70, from Ring City, California, pursuant to arrangements made by Paul McDaniel
of the New York Office. The sample was identified by the Chemical Hygiene Fellowship
033-251.
"
Tracheal Insufflation
A 12 (V/V) suspension of the RG 244 sample was prepared in 0.852 saline. All needles, syringes end suspensions were sterilised prior to use. Either 1 ml or 0.5 ml amounts of the sterile 12 suspension were injected into the rat lung through the crsehee, exposed by blunt diseection, after e midline cervical incision. Following Injection of these 200 to 300 gram, male albino, Harlan Uistar rats the incisions were closed with Michael wound damps until healing ensued.
A total of 13 re to were doeed with 1 ml end IS with 0*5 ml of the 12 suspension while 11 control rate received 1 ml of sterile 0.852 HeCl. Three rats from each asbestos dosed group and 2 controls were killed for histopathologicexamination of -the lung after intervals of 30, 60 and 90 days which left groups of 4, 6 and 5 rats on the 1 ml, 0.5 ml asbestos and control for Cha 180 day sacrifice*
Summary of Microscopic Pathology Found 30, 60, 90_and__180_Days
Following Tracheal Insufflation of Rats
The 30-day pathology vas narked by the presence of granulation tissue with chickening of the-structural elements of the lung (stroma) and cha accumulation of giant cells often associated with foreign bodies.

both dosage levels, fibroeie foreign nodules is 3 of 3 and esphysesa in 2 of 3.
Chronic inflammatory cell foci and atelectasis were present. Bronchioles were
dilated is 2 of 3 rats on both dosage levels and all but one on both dosage levels
had sooe lung heeiorrhage.
.
The final ISO day sacrifice revealed interstitial pneuaonia in 4 rats on the 0.5 si dose. This la a ckrcsic fora of pneumonia of interstitial tissue with decrease of the normal lung tissue. Atelectasis was present in the 4 rats on 1 cl and on 1 rat on the 0.5 ml dose of asbeseos with the 5 controls noraal. Fibroeie foreign body tissue was present in all dosed lungs with none in the controls, Fink, hyalin aaterial was found in 2 of 4 lungs from rats on Che 1 al dose while la 3 of 4 there was a bluish homogeneous material evident*
In essence, a total of 10 of 13 rats on the 1 ml dose and. 12 of 25 on Che 0.5 al dose had fibrotle foreign body nodules or tissue. There were 3 cases of emphysema on the high dose and 4 on the low dose and 1 in the control. Atelectasis (essentially collapae of lung alveoli) was present in 9 rats on 1 ml and 6 on. 0.5 ml of asbestos with none reported in cha controls. In general, because of the over whelming preponderance of effect in the asbestos dosed lungs versus the controls, wa have sufficient evidence of damage to warn us to do our best to prevent inhalation of ccscentrations of ssbestos is excasa of the Threshold Limit Value proposed for
1970, (Threshold Licit Values of Airborne Contaminants and Intended Changes. Adopted by ACCXH for 1970. American Conference of Governmental Hygienists, 1014 Broadway, Cincinnati, Ohio 45202).
' Summary Tables for each of cha four sacrifices are`included. Detailed pathology reports on each animal are available and copies can be furnished if the need for them arises. A literature review prepared in connection with another request for information is attached although noc requested.

Research Experience
The basic and clinical aspects of the tumour problem and neuzodegenerative disease have h--^
persistent themes of the research conducted to date.
.
Rockefeller University, 1975 * 1976:
"Control of Trophoblastic HCG Secretion: Gene Mapping": EBI. in collaboration with Dr E.G. Diacumafcos (Rockefeller University) and Dr W.B. Jones (Memorial Hospital for Cancer), was the dm to grow choriocarcinomas in vttro without recourse to animal hosts, work conducted in a combined clinical and experimental study of the relationship between HCG secretion and malignant trophoblastic growth. The results of this study suggested that the secretory activity and cellular proliferation of malignant trophobiast may. at times, be dissociated phenomena in van. a conclusion confirmed by observations .made, on taro occasions, in vivo. Since these experiments were originally aimed at mapping the HCG gene via ceil hybridisation. EBI also mastered techniques, developed by Dr Diaounakos. for miaosurgical cell fosion. chromosome extraction, nuclear and cytoplasmic ceil injection, and single cell dotting as well as methods needed for the cytogenetic analysis of such dotted ceil lines. Whilst at Rockefeller, EBI also had numerous discussions with Prof Armin Braun on Epigenetic theory, tumour suppression, and recovery. These were based on Prof Braun's Crown Gall Teratoma Model System and laid the foundation for some of EBT* forme experiments.
Imperial Cancer Research Fund, Tumour Reference Collection (TRQ and the San Diego Zoological Research Hospital (SDZ), 1976:
"Comparative Pulmonary Neoplasia": EBI made an extensive histopatbologjcal review of a large series of pulmonary turnouts found in captive wild animals (SDZ) and various domestic species (TRQ, the results confirming previous reports that most animal lung tumours are of the alveolar type, Le. the one not generally seen in association with smoking.
Oxford University, Dept Zoology, 1976 - 1981:
"Control of Trophoblastic ChOoiar Division": The perplexities of working with a malignant tissuethat, even in their normal state, behave in a manner similar to tumour tissues, led EBI to pursue studies of normal trophoblastic growth and developmental mechanisms generally thought to be related to neoplasia. Such studies were pursued in Oxford in the microsurgery laboratory of Prof R.L. Gardner, a leading experimental mammalian embryologist. These studies employed microsurgical injection, dissection, enzymatic separation, and / or tissue culture of pre- and post-implantation embryos and their constituent tissues. The latter wen analysed biochemically. histodtemicaUy, cytoktgically, cytogenetically, histologically, and cytophotometricaUy using, in some cases; methods developed by the EBL Embryo transfer and amour inoculation methods were also employed in these studies.
Oxford University, Dept, of Botxny, 1980 - 1981:
"Cytological and Cytogenetic Analysis of Polyploid Cells": Preparations of trophoblastic giant cells were analysed cytologically, cytogenetically, and cytophotomeaically in the Botany School under the supervision of two eminent cytologisu. Dr C.G. Vosa and Dr F.A.L. Clowes. These analyses were primarily directed at assessing DNA synthesis and chromosome structme.

Research Experience

''Regulation and Suppression of the Tumorous State: Analysis of Heterotopic Embryonal Carcinoma (EC) cell-derived Chimeric tissues In Vitro and /it Vhon: Embryonal carcinoma (EC) eeil-denved mouse chimaeias were produced by EBt using Prof Gardner's blastocyst injection methods and the mature chimaenc tissues were subsequently dissected into their constituent parts, ecropically transferred to syngeneic hosts, and observed in host sites fbr tumour growth of donor ceil origin. Since eoopicaity transferred, chimaenc placental tissues were the only ones to form tumours, it was concluded that placental, in contrast to somatic tissues, lacked the ability to suppress the tumorous phenotype
'
Oxford University, Dept, of Neuropathology, The RaddHTe Infirmary, 1981-1985.
"Embryonic Regulation of Neural Neoplasia": Discussions with Prof Annin Braun subsequently led EBI to ask if tumour cell types other than those of EC cell origin, could colonise the embiyo and. in nun. be suppressed or regulated by the embryonic environment. Since it was likely that this would occur with 'deveiopmentally synchronised', donor-host cell combinations, eg. when neuroblastomas were injected into the normal neuroblastic tissues of the embryo, a nucrosurgtcal method was developed chat could inject marker substances and ceils into the brain of the developing mouse embiyo in uttro.
"Unusual associations between different tumour types and bamartomatous dysgenetic disorders of neural crest (e.g. intra-crenial melanoma and Naevus of Ota) or non-oenrel crest (e.g. Tuberous Sclerosis with Sarcomas and Adenocarcinomas) origin": EBI was to first to provide evidence to suggest that the NF gene in Neurofibromatosis may not only predispose neural crest-derived Schwann cells to undergo malignant change but also may affect in a similar way, non-aeural crest glial derivatives ofthe cerebellum.
"Clinical Pathological Correlation Studies": The largest series of ependymomas, cerebellar astrocytomas, medulloblastomas, and craniopharyngiomas were analyzed to determine clinical and pathological prognostic indices.
"Involvement of Nucleus Amhiguui and Chronic Inflammation in MuMSystemic Atrophy (MSA)": EBI was the first to demonstrate chronic inflammation in the Shy-Orager Syndrome (Multi System Atrophy with Autonomic Involvement) and to confirm upper motor neuron loss within the nucleus amhiguus by histologically reviewing serial sections of the brainstems of more than 20 MSA patients, perhaps the largest collection in the world.
"Ncuraepidemiological Studies: Mercury containing pesticides An assessment of the exposure, neuromuscular ftmcriou, and nenrapathotogical statua of seed dressing merchants and agricultural workers": A multidisciplinary investigation to assess the exposure, neuromuscular function, and possible neuropahotogicai changes in seed dressing merchants and workers exposed to mexany-comaining pesticides in Oxfordshire was outlined though not conducted. The investigation had received the approval of the University Dept, of Neurology, The RaddiiTe Inflatory. Oxford (Prof B. Matthews); the National Hospital (hr Nervous Disease. Dept, of Neurophysiology, Queen's Square. London; DKSS St Bartholomew's Medical College: London (Prof A.D. Dayan (Toxicology) and Prat N.J.

"Initiation and Promotion in SWo or Liver Neoplasia: A 65 year annotated Bibliography of International Literature": The terms tumor 'initiator" and "promoter* have engendered much confesion particularly within the regulatory agencies responsible for their control Because of this. Prof P Shubik was asked by the American Industrial Health Council (AJHCX the National Cancer Insitute (NCI), and the Health aid Welfare Department of Canada to attempt to darify such confusion and reach a greater consensus on the present day meaning and definition of such terms. Prof Shubik then asked EBI to comprehensively compile and critically review every original whole animal andy ever performed that was daimed to be related to initiation and promotion in the skm or liver ofany species as a first step towards achieving this goaL The firs 13 months of the project was supported by the A1HC (ca. 5S0.000} but was completed with the support of the Imperial Cancer Research Fund (ca S200.000} under the supervision of Or Richard Pen. FRS ewer tbs ensuing 32 months. The vasmess at the literature reviewed for the project (over 2000 original studies from 200 different journals in 9 languages) is reflected in the feet that the articles upon which the study was primarily based occupied more than 25 feet of shelf space. The phenomenon at initierion and promotion has substantially influenced past and current theories of human cancer and continues to be the fbeta of much research. The project described in a 928 page (microtext) compendium published by CRC press in (991. attempts to make the relevant experimental evidence readily accessible. A greater aim was to bring together studies that relate importantly to phenomena that have been of increasing concern to those involved with environmental protection legislation namely events penaining to possible human exposures to agents with delayed cancer causing effects and to the potential synergism between different agents. Overall, however, one must be cautious about overinterpreting the animat dam found in many studies that daim to investigate initiation and promotion since the majority have nriitred nanphysioiogicai models, unduly sensitive strains, and excessive exposures often in excess ofthe maximum tolerated dose.

Research Experience
"Irreversibility at the Initiated State": Early initiator promoter studies claimed that initiation was irreversible ie that a dose of carcinogen insufficient to induce turnon was soil sufficent to produce a cancer risk that would remain unabated for life However, this concept (which Forms the basis of the no threshold concept) defies biological sense in the light of our present day knowledge especially on repair mechanisms. Thus, in order to demonstrate that the studies subsequent to the earlier ones Sail to support the concept of irreversibility, ail of the studies which claimed to test the reversibility of initiation were therefore assembled and cntiqued. The results were then presented as invited tenures, to universities (Bryn Mawr College), industrial centres {ICT. Ell Lilly), and to government (FDA). The work was supported {ca SIO.OOO) by the DHSS. Dept, ofToxicology. London. Dr Barbara MbcCibbon and Dr John Steadman.
Oxford University, Faculty, Biological Sciences, St Edmund Hall, 1989 to present.
"Mesotheitoaias of Animals: A Comprehensive, Tabular Compendium of the World's Uteramre":EBI produced the first book to comprehensively compile the diverse, disparate literature on animal mesotheliomas. The compendium presented evidence in support of the existence of so called "background* or nonasbestos related mesotheliomas as well as the threshold concept
"Mesothelloffla Background: Honasbestos related tumors":In collaboration with Dr J C Wagner. EBI assembled, analyzed, and published the animal and human evidence which suppons the view that mesotheliomas may be caused by agents other than asbestos. EBI is presently gvtenHiwg this work by assessing the possible presence of fibrous zeolite - related disease in the United States.
"Mesothelioma Threshold": In collaboration with Dr K Browne. EBI assembled, analyzed, and published the animal and human evidence that suppons the view that the doses of agents required to induce mesothelioma display no observable effect levels or threshold. This was done primarily for the two major commercial amphibotes. amostte and croctdolim. EBI is presently extending these studies to tremolite. the common contaminant of duysotile. venniculhe. and talc In particular, the pathology Libby venniculite / tremolite miners and millers with lung cancer and mesothelioma being analyzed for publications in conjunction with hmg burden, hygiene, and other occupational exposure data.

Doctoral Dissertation - Summary
1. Control of trophoblastic proliferation in early postimplantatjon mouse development: Several conditions are needed to promote die growth of postintplamanon mouse trophoblast. Firstly, an appropriate tissue shape and close cell contacts are needed to suppress die trophoblastic giant cell transformation and maintain these tissues in a largely diploid, non-giant state. Moreover. since an appropriate tissue shape cannot, on its own. promote trophoblastic cell division. ICM-derivatives. e.g. ecoaembryonic endodenn and / or mesoderm, are probably also needed to stimulate normal trophoblastic growth.
2. Control of trophoblastic proliferation in the guinea pig: The growth of guinea pig aophccrodcrm and its early postimplantation derivatives appear to be under TCM control. Thus, the multilayered attachment cone of the guinea pig blastocyst is probably not due to an ICM-independent proliferation of trophectoderm but is most likely derived from a transient accumulation ofabembryonic trophectodemtal cells.
3. Origin of the trophoblastic giant cells: binudeation: In the mouse, postimplantation trophoblast appears to become giant through a binudeate phase. Thus, the growth of mouse trophectoderm occurs, to a certain extent, in a manner similar to the polyploidisation of mouse liver.
4. Origin of the trophoblastic giant cell: multinudeatiowThe finding of muJtinucieates in pure, tropbectoderm-derived tissues suggests that trophoblastic aiuitmudeation, at least in the mouse, does not depend upon prior contact with mesenchyme or mesenchymal tissues. Multipolar, polyploid mitotic figures were found in mouse decidua, tissues known to contain mttitimicteates similar to the ones seen in the trophoblastic derivatives of nmrinams. This suggests that the muitimideate cells seen in same forms of trophoblast may arise in a manner similar to those found in rodent decidual tissues, ie. via a multipolar mitosis withoutconcomitant cytokinesis.
5. Mechanism by which DNA accumulates during the trophoblastic giant eel] transformation: Polyploid meaphases were found within postimplantation mouse trophoblast that had chromosomes arranged either randomly or in pain. This suggests that at least some mouse trophoblastic cells increase their DNA via polyploid nutate and/or cndomitoric cycles.
6. Control of the trophoblastic giant cell transformation: The degree to which tropbectoderm-derived cells cadoreduplicate their nuclear genome and thus become giant can be influenced by changes in tissue shape and the extent ofheteroeflular contact Thus, cell separation, spreading, and stretching appear to promote foe gtiua ceil change not only within trophcoodcrmal derivatives but also within tissues known to behave in a maimer similar to trophectoderm. namely exnaembryonic entoderm. Moreover, the giant cells found in normal and neoplastic extraembryamc tissues are not necessarily terminal and incapable of cell division since they may be found in mitosis either before and / or following mitogenic stimulation. Comparative studies also suggest that the onset of the giant ceil change in one extraembryontc membrane may be temporally correlated whfa the development and/or degeneration of a nearby placental tissue layer.

teee with aeaenchyae or moaenohymal tissues. Multipolar, polyploid nltotlc figures
were found In mouse decidua, tissues known eo contain multlnuclsates similar to the
onea seen in the trophoblastic derivatives of ruminants. This suppssts that -the multi*
nucleate cells seen in some forms of trophoblast may arise in a manner similar eo
those found in rodent doeidual tissues, l.a. via a multipolar mitosis without

The degree to which trophctodsrm-dsrived cells endoreduplicste their nuclear jenomo
and thus become giant can b< Influenced by changes in tisaua shape and the cstent
of intercellular contact. Thus, cell separation, spreading, and stretching appear
to promote the giant eeil change not only within tropheetodermal derivative* but also
witnin tissues known to behave in a manner similar to trophectodsrm, namely escre*
embryonic endodorm. Moreover, the giant ceil* round In normal and neoplastic extra*
embryonic tiseuee are noe neeeetarlly terminal end incapable of eell division tine*
they may be found in mitosis either before end/or following mltogenle stimulation.
Comparative studlee also suggest that the onset of the plane cell chance in one-extra* emaryanle membrane may be temporally correlated with the development enc.'or

OOCTORAL DISSERTATION -
11 Contra! of trophoblastic proliferation In early oostleolantatlow ecus*. dMlecwrit:
Severe! condition* are needed to proaato the growth of postleplantation eause trophoblast. Firstly, an aop prlac* tissue ahao* and eiosd call contacts aro naadad to super*** tha trophoblastic giant call transferee and a*intoIn thasa tlssuaa in a largely diploid, non-giant atata. Moreover, sine* an appropriate tissue ahcannot. on its awn, proeot* trophoplastle cell division. ICM-derlvatlvaa. a.g. axtraaaoryonlc encoder* and. eeseder*. are proOoOly also naadad to stlauiat* noreal trophohlaatie growth.
2. Control of trophoblastic proliferation In the guinea pldt
The growth of guinea pig tropheetoder* and Its aerly postieplantation derivatives appsar to be under 104
control. Thus, the sultilayered attach--nt con* of the guinea pig blastocyst is probably not due to an'IOt
Independent proliferation of trocheetod*rw but is aost likely derived tree a transient accumulation of
abeebryonlc tropheetodereel calls.
'
3. Orloin of the eroohoblastlc plant cells: blnucleation
In the ecus*, postieplantatlon trophoblast appears to becoe* giant through a blnueleate phaso. Thus, the
growth of aeus* tropheetoder* occurs, to a certain extant. In a wear sieilar to the polyploldlsatlan of
aeuse liver.
-
. Orloin of the trophoblastle giant cell: euitlnuoieatlon
The finding of auitlnueleates In pur*, trophaetodere-derived tissue* suggests that trophoblastle aultinuciaatlon, at lease In the aouse. does not depend upon prior contact with aoscnchyaa or aasanchyeal tissue Multipolar, polyploid aitotle figures ware found in aouse decidua, tissues known to contain auitlnueleates siatlar to the ones seen in the trophoblastle derivatives of rueinants. This suggests that the aultinueleai ceils seen In so-- fores of trophoblast aay arise in a sender sieilar to these found In rodant decidual tlsaues. l.a. via a aultlpolar altosis without concealtant cytokinesis.
5. Mechanise by which CNA aceueulates during the trophoblastle giant cell transformation
Polyploid --taphases were found within postleplantatlpn aouse trophoblast that had ehroeosoass arranged
either randoely or In pdlrs. This suggests that at least see* aouse trophoblastle calls increase their ONA
via polyploid aitotle and/or ndoeltocle cycles.
*
. Control of the trophoblastle giant cell transformation
The degree to which trophaetodere-derived ceils endoredupllent* their nuclear gariae* and thus becans giant can be lnfluancad by changes In tissue shape and the axtent of Intercellular contact. Thus, call separation spreading, and stretching appear to proeot* the giant cell change net only within tropheetodereel derivativ but also within tissues known to behave in a aartner sieilar to tropheetodera. neeely extraaebryonle ended*r Moreover, the giant cells found In nor--l and nsoplastle extrseaOryonlc tissues are not necessarily ternina and tneaoeel* of cell division since they --y be found in altosIs either before and/or following aitogenle stimulation. Ceaparatlve stadias also suggest that the onset of the giant cell ehang* in one extrasebryonlc --bran* --y be temporally correlated with the developeant and/or degeneration of a nearby placental tissue layer.

1 want to thank you for your Association's participation in the support of the carcinogenesis promotion review project being conducted by Or. Gd Ilgren at Oxford University under the supervision of Or. Phil Shubik. The complete list of groups that are providing* financial support is:
1. American Industrial Health Council (A2HCJ - J. Oavid Sandler 2. International Life Sciences Institute CHS!} - Ks. Sharon Senzik 3. Certified Color Manufacturers Association (GQtti - Or. James Noonan 4. flavor Extract Manufacturers Association (FSHA) - Or. Richard L. Hall 5. Research Institute for fragrance Materials (R2FH) - Or. Richard A. Ford 6. Cheaicai Manufacturers Association (CHAf - Hr. Carl (Inland 7. Procter 4 Gamble - Dr. Donald H. Hughes ` * 6. Coca-Cola Company - Or. James Baerson
9* Fepsieo - Or. James V. Stanley
As you may recall. Dr. ELgren actually began work on this project in the fall of 1965 with tacit support fros the Rational Cancer Institute.* However, that
support disappeared with the emergence of Grams-fludman. Hence, we approached you for help and your positive response was critical to the continuation of this `project. We anticipate this association and Industry support will carry Dr. Ilgren through October of 1986 and eesplete this phase of the project, which is to review and critique the sassive literature on premotion and to have a paper ready for publication and presentation at an appropriate seating at the end of this year. I plan tn get back to you later in the sunaer with a status report and thoughts for the future of this project.
Very best regards.
Very truly yours

The 'situation at Oxford is somewhat complex, but Dr Ilgren ^ was never actually on the staff of this College, although he was a member of the College in virtue of having beenta graduate student here.

Dear Ms Waskosky
Wf&tor&Sf*
X am responding to your lottos od 21 April received by fax*
mors are two routes to membershij (HKCFath) of this colleges toy examination (in two parts) or toy submission of published work, Under the old examination system jrtiloh is being phased out this year, it was also possible to gall exemption free ths first part of the membership axanination li tha basis of an approved postgrsduate qualification or sunslssion of publication*.
According to our records, Dr ft 2 Ilgren of Apt 503, 930 Montgomery Avenue, Bryn Maur, Pin sylvanla 19010 is an Associate of the collage, having gained oxsi ption in October issi from the first part of the membership exiaination, the Primary, on the basis of his publications in a palhologieal fiaid. The status of Associate is entirely optional on the part of the applicant: it doas not permit entitlement to I designated Initials auoh as AMCPath tout does allow the helper to receive the quarterly mailings of tha college1
X hope this information is of hs

A COMPARATIVE STUDY OF PULMONARY TUMORS FROM THE SAN DIEGO ZOOLOGICAL GARDENS AND THE TUMOR REFERENCE COLLECTION, IMPERIAL CANCER RESEARCH FUND, LONDON
E. B. ILGREN, L GRINER K. BENIRSCHKE, AND L. S. C. PANG
Spontaneous primary neoplasm of thelung are uncocunon in many animal speci.M The predominant human pulmonary tumors, the squamous-cell and oat-cell car cinomas,*'* are believed to be causally related to cigarette smoking, are more fre quently seen in urban than rural areas, often metastasize early and widely, and repre sent a significant proportion of all types of human tumors. Similar histologic lesions are almost unknown to occur spontaneously In domestic and captive wild animals.
This paperexamines in detail most of thf 31 pulmonary tumors found in the cap tive wild animal collection of the San Diego Zoo (SDZ), as well as the 1 lung tumors from the Tumour Reference Collection (TRC) of the Imperial Cancer Research Fund,London. The TRCcases were received from comparative pathologists throughout the world, and have not been described previously.
The object of this study was to determine if tumors from either the TRC or SDZ series histologically resembled certain human tumors associated with exposure to dif ferent pulmonary carcinogens, such as cigarette smoke.
DESCRIPTION OF CASES
Reptiles
To date, few primary epithelial or meseachymal pulmonary tumors have been found in reptiles.'*-1* There were 28 reptilian tumors in the SDZ series--12 percent of the total--but only 2 of these were found in the lung. The first case(SDZ-2J95) was that of

a Cape cobra (Naja nivea) with a pulmonary adenocarcinoma that extensively in vaded the lung parenchyma as well as the mediastinum. The tumor exhibited the cytologic features ofa peripheral, bronchiolo-alveolar tumor(Fig. 1). Thesecond case (SDZ-4538; AFIP1343278) was that of a timber rattlesnake (Crotahu horridus) with a metastatic lymphosarcoma and an associated urate nephropathy.'*
Birds
The mortality due to neoplasia in some species of fowl may approach 60 percent; most tumors found in birds are hematopoietic in origin.1*"-1* In addition, Stewart and Ratdjffe found 19 primary pulmonary epithelial tumors in the Philadelphia study,1-17 and at least 6 of these were shown to be malignant. As Campbell states, the primary pulmonary epithelial tumors ofbirdscan be extremely difficult to distinguish from the bronchial epithelial hyperplasias associated with chronic Inflammatory conditions." The infrequency of avian pulmonary tumors is probably related to several factors.I|UU For example, birds have a relatively long trachea, variable numbers of mucous glands, large air sacs, few lymphatics, a diffuse reticuloendothelial system, and a rapid respiratory rate. Such physiologic variables significantly influence the degree, type, and pattern of particle deposition within the avian lung. These differences could in turn account for the low frequency of avian pulmonary tumors which are histologi cally similar to (hose human neoplasias associated with, the deposition ofcarcinogenic particuiatematter.

A Comparative Study of Pulmonary Tumors 333
Inthepresentstudy, three avian turnon were examined..'Tie first case, involvinga wood partridge(Rotlulusroulroui SDZ-I0286), was found to be a small tumor arising from a major bronchus. There was no other evidence of endobronchial growth, nor. any clear association with the overlying submucosal glands. Histologically, the tumor resembled the rare oncocytoid variant of a human carcinoid.* Although the argentaf fin ceil system from which the human carcinoids are thought to arise has also been demonstrated in mammals, birds, and some invertebrates, pulmonary carcinoids are rarely found in any nonhuman species.*34** The other two cases included that of a peaceful dove (Geopedla placida SDZ-8362), which died from a metastatic pan* creatic. papillary adenocarcinoma histologically similar to its human counterpart.3' and that of a blackwinged stilt (Hlmantopus leucolopftoius SDZ-89J8), which died from a metastatic squamous-cell carcinoma. The latter arose from a primary rumor associated, with a chronic ulcer of the right wing. The origin of human cancers from sites of chronic inflammation, i.e., old burns and draining sinuses, is also well recognized.*
Mammals
Marsupials, Previously, only two other pulmonary tumors have been found in mar supials. These occurred in American opossums (Didetphis marsupials) (PhZ~ 99803-''*), one of which died from a bronchogenic, epidermoid carcinoma, while the other (Lndn-64871M) expired with a bronchial adenoma. Thesingfcpulmonary tumor noted in this study arose from a major bronchus within the lung of another American opossum (SDZ-6864). The tumor itself was well circumscribed and glandular, with few mitoses. There was extensive inflammation and necrosis in the adjacent pulmonary parenchyma, but little evidence of invasion by tumor. Microscopically (Fig. 2), the neoplasm resembled one of the atypical pulmonary epithelial prolifera tions of humans.*
Edtntata. The pulmonary lesion discovered in a nine-banded armadillo (Dasypus novmcinctusSDZ-10808) has been described in detail elsewhere.* The tumor was a benign, peripheral nodule that histologically resembled human focal adenomatosis.*'* The alveolar lining ceils were replaced by mucus-secreting columnar epithelium, and there was no evidence of endobronchial infiltration."** Similar lesions have been ar tificially induced in the horse and rat with Croiatarta retusa, in the rabbit withdlbenzanthracene and rubidium-173,* and in thesheep by various means.11*41
Rodsntta and Lagomorpha. With the exception of mice, spontaneous pulmonary tumors are relatively rare in rodents.4*"1* This is especially true of hamsters,1-41** guinea pigs,1**' and rats.41 Furthermore, guinea pigs and rabbitsare particularly resis
I tant to the development of induced lung tumors.* However, the hamster has, in con trast to Its tow frequency ofspontaneous lung neoplasms, a relatively high incidence of induced squamous-cell tumors of the trachea and major bronchi.13*4 Spontaneous lung tumors of rodents are usually peripheral, solitary adenomata.3**3*4, and are much less common than secondary tumors such as metastatic lymphosarcomas. Fur thermore, induced squamous-cell tumors are more common in the hamster and rat

than in most rodents..Although such squamous-cell neoplasms metastasize in frequently, metastasis, when it does occur, is usually to atypical sites such as the kidney, rather than to the liver and the lung, as In humans. The mouse is the only ro dent with a relatively high incidence of spontaneous pulmonary tumors." Such neoplasms are mostly subpleural and adenomatous. As in the rat, these tumors are rarely invasive, and less than 4 percent metastasize."-*1 Only one adenocarcinoma was found in a mouse (n the present study (TRC-1214). it was widely metastatic and in vasive (Fig. 3). No oat-cell carcinomas and very few spontaneous squamous-cell car cinomas have been found in mice."-*1" Thirty percent of the metastases from these rare, spontaneous murine carcinomas become sarcomatous.*' induced murine pulmonary tumors, in contrast to the spontaneous types, are usually multifocal, metastatic, and centrally-situated squamous-cell carcinomas." Extensive genetic studies on murine pulmonary neoplasms have established a relationship between the susceptibility to developing puimonary tumors and genes associated with certain mor phologic characteristics, e.g., flexed, waved, and vestigial tails.** Puimonary tumors are almost unknown in captive wild rodents other than the wild house mouse. No cases have been found in the Philadelphia or London Zoological collections. In this study, multiple, peripheral adenomata were found in an Antelope ground squirrel (Citattus leueums SOZ-9413), These pulmonary lesions (SDZ-9413) (Fig. 4) histologically

Carnivon. Neoplasms are found In S percent of aU breeds of dog,' 43*4 and the brachycephallc strains, such as the boxer, have the highest incidence." Overall, how* ever, pulmonary tumors are relatively rare in dogs, comprising from I to 3 percent of ail canine neoplasms. The average age of dogs with pulmonary tumors is 10 years,1" and there is no urban-rural variation in tumor incidence.1* In one study of 16 lung tumors from over 10,000 dogs," 12 tumors were bronchiolo-alveolar, and these failed to metastasize. The ocher 4 tumors in this series" were also giandular, but were associated either with foci of squamous metaplasia, or, more rarely, with squamous cell carcinoma. Many induced lung tumors in dogs are alveolar, and these rarely metastasize beyond the hilar lymph nodes."*'4 In the present study (TRC-2368). a 9-year-old male English setter died from a bronchogenic adenocarcinoma which had metastasized to the hilar and periaortic lymph nodes (Fig. 6). This animal's tumor ap peared to arise from the bronchial epithelium, and was histologically similar to the feline tumor described below (cf. TRC-3334) (Fig. 7).J
Spontaneous lung tumors in cats are even less common than in dogs. They are usually subpieural, multifocal, and glandular.3* Such tumors metastasize more fre
quently than those found in dogs, and squamous-cell carcinomas are practically unknown in this species, in contrast to these peripherally situated tumors, those found

in cases TRC-3334 (Fig. 7), TRC-3266 and TRC-43S8 (Fig. 8) arose from major
bronchi, and all three were found in domestic cau. The first two were papillary
adenocarcinomas, while the other was a secretory adenocarcinoma which arose from
subepitheiiai glands,.Although no squamous-ceil carcinomas were seen in domestic
cats, bronchiolar squamous metaplasia, a potentially premaUgnant lesion, was seen in
one animal (TRC-3640).

' Spontaneous primary pulmonary epithelial tumors are extremely rare in captive
wild carnivores, and only one such case was found in the present study. This animal, a
snow leopard (Panthera uncia SDZ-4793), died with multiple pulmonary adenomata.
These unusual lesions were histologically similar to those just described in the
domestic cat (TRC-3266), and were also of subepitheiiai glandular origin (Fig. 9).
Severalspontaneous secondary neoplasms were also found in the SDZ series. A maned
wolf (Chrytocycn braehyurus SDZ-11376) died of a metastatic, papillary renal car*
einoma not unlike that described in an earlier study. (See PhZ-190601.) Microscopi
cally, these tumors resembled their human morphologic counterparts.14'7 Another
maned wolf (SDZ*10282) died from a metastatic fibrosarcoma arising from its right
femur. Sarcomas ofbones are particularly common incertain strains o fdomestic dogs
(e.g., the Great Dane), and some have suggested that there is an association between
extreme leg length, constant mechanical stress, and the development of hind-limb
tumors. Although the maned wolf physically resembles these large domesticated
strains of dogs, few tumors analogous to the ones found in the Great Dane have been

reported in captive wild canines. The other tumors of wild dogs found in this study in cluded a metastatic nasopharyngealcarcinoma (epithelioma) ina goldenjackal (Cams aureus SDZ-10129); this tumor was morphologically similar to that seen in the human and in a Cape hunting dog (lyeaon pictus SDZ-11204) with a metastatic hemangiosarcoma. The latter probably arose from the aorta and was associated with primary carcinomas of the mamma, pancreas, and thyroid. Although aortic sarcomas in dogs are thought to be associated with Spineerm lupl, no parasites were identified in this case.71
Artlodactyia. Althoughvery few primary pulmonary tumors have been found in this order ofmammals,0*'* previous studies have been based largely on the examination of slaughtered animals killed before 8 years ofage. Since most lung tumors in cattle have been found in animals older than 6 years of age, more tumors would obviously have been seen iftheta animals had been allowed to live out their natural life span, which is usually between If and20years.'*<n
Few eases of primary squnmous-ceil carcinoma of the lung have been found in cattle.1*** The more common type of bovine lung tumor is a multifocal, scirrhous, peripheral adenocarcinoma with an alveolar infundibular pattern distinct from that

found in human pulmonary tumors."-" This tumor metastasizes more often than do
histologically similar lesions of the dog.73 Most metasuses, however, are confined to
the regional lymph nodes, and extranodal spread Is rare." As in other mammals,
secondary I ung tumors in cattle are far more common thanprimary neoplasms; These
usually arise either from carcinomas of the eye and the uterus, or from lymphosar-
coma*.'w'
Excluding Jaagsiekte, primary lung tumors are rare in domestic sheep**'11 and in
captive wild aniodactyls. In the present study, an impaia (Aepyceros metampus
SDZ-7823) was found with multiple scirrhous adenomata histologically similar to
those found in domestic cattle (Fig. 10). A pulmonary adenocarcinoma was also seen
In a springbok (Antidorcas manupialls SD2-10086). This animal's tumor (SDZ-
10086) was not scirrhous, but was similar to the type of severe secondary bronchiolo
alveolar hyperplasia often associated with chronic pulmonary inflammation and con
solidation. The lesion was, however, histologically distinct from the cellular variety of
Jaagsiekte**-*4 and did not metastasize. This springbok (SDZ-10086) also exhibited
marked joint swelling similar to that seea ia birds,11 dogs,*`J,J* monkeys," and
humans with pulmonary hypertrophic osteoarthropathy.

A malignant spindle-cell and epithelioid mesothelioma was found in an eland
(Taurotragus oryx SDZ-10125). Only two other mesotheliomas in captive wild mam
mals have been reported, one in a Cape hunting dog (Ph Z-9604) and the other in a
clouded leopard (Ph Z-2516). However, the tumors in both of these cases were

A Comparative Study of Pulmonary Tumors 341 localized, fibrous, and partially composed ofosteoid, in contrast to the highly invasive neoplasm seen in this series (SDZ-10125). Such localized lesions may be similar either to the rare benign, fibrous mesotheliomas of humans or to certain reactive mesotheiiai proliferations often found adjacent to foci of parenchymal inflammation.'* Asbestos particles were not seen in any of the cases (Ph Z or SDZ) described above.1*
Tumors of the lung are very rare in domestic goats.' A wild goat (Capra aegagrus SDZ-6474) was found with multiple, peripheral, papillary bronchiolo-alveolar and bronchial hyperplastic nodules. Although some of these nodular lesions were associated with lung worms, this type of reactive bronchial epithelial change is usually not due to such parasites. The most common variety of bovine lung worm, Die-
tyocaulus vivtparus, usually elicits an alveolar granulomatous inflammatory reaction with epithelialization of the alveolar lining cells." Less commonly, these parasites may produce a secondary bronchiolitis that leads to consolidation and emphysema.
Twocaptive wild aniodactyls in this study had interesting secondary tumors. The first, an impala (Aepyceros melampus SDZ-8313), died from a metastatic adenocar cinoma that appeared to arise from the uterine cervix. Histologically, this tumor very closely resembled the rare human cervical adenocarcinoma of Wolffian or mesonephric duct origin--the well differentiated, tubular mesdnephroma (Fig. 11 )."** Although endometrial carcinomas are well recognized in cattle,1 mesonephroid tumors have not been described before in either domestic or captive wild species.

Pinnipedia. Little information exists concerning neoplasia in this order of mam mals. No tumors were found in either the Philadelphia or London reports, although one rumor and one hamartoma were seen in this study. The firs: of these involved a California sea lion (Zalophus caltfomianus SDZ-10092: AFIP 1543048) which died from a metastatic renal carcinoma. The tumor was a clear-cell variant microscopically similar to its human counterpart, which showed extensive venous invasion (Fig. 12). In the other case a Baikal seal (Pusasibirica SDZ-39I6) died with an associated ectopic pulmonary thyroid (Fig. 131. Although intraperieardlal thyroid rests are well recog nized in dogs.* deposits of ectopic thyroid near the lung are most unusual In any species including humans.
Proboscidea. Previously, only two pulmonary tumors, both of questionable malignancy, have beendescribed in this order of mammals.*** Thecase from the pres ent study (SDZ-8085: AFIP 1472532) was that of an Asian elephant (Elephasmaximus) that died with multiple pulmonary lymphoid nodules and no evidence of systemic disease. The lesions were composed mainly of mature lymphocytes and histiocytes arranged as germinal centers (Fig. 14 Left). There was little evidence of parenchymal invasion. This tumor, as wellas the other two described elsewhere (v.$.), contained herpetic intranuclear inclusions within the bronchial epithelium (Fig. 14 Right).

diagnosis of pulmonary pseudolymphoma, lymphosarcoma, or severe, chronic, interstitial pneumonitis may be quite difficult, (t can often only be made in retrospect, and ihe true diagnosis may remain uncertain uniess resolution, recurrence after removal, or dissemination of disease occurs. Similar herpetic lymphoproliferativ* dysplasias and neoplasias are well recognized in birds, mammals, and humans,* although these disorders are rarely confined to one organ such as the lung.

Primates. Ratdiffe states that primates had the lowest tumor incidence of all mam mals at the Philadelphia Zoo and, in over 32 years, he did not find one pulmonary neoplasm in this order of mammals.17 No cases were found in the London series, although several lung tumors are described in other isolated studies.10*1* The one case found in theSDZ series was that of a 22-year-old Guenon monkey (Cercopitheais dlana SDZ-3473) which died with multiple peripheral pulmonary adenomata. There was neither parenchymal invasion nor metastases. The lesions histologically resem bled the atypical epithelial proliferations of the human lung described by Lfebow.*
DISCUSSION AND CONCLUSIONS
The present report supports the rarity of pulmonary tumors in animals. There is, moreover, a total absence in this study of any tumor histologically similar to the smoking-related h uman lung cancers, namely, the primarypulmonarysquamaus<eii, anaplastic, and oat-ceil carcinomas. The anjmal lung tumors described herein may be histologically, and even biologically, similar to their human counterparts--the bronchiolo-alveolar carcinomas, adenomas, adenomatoses, bronchial glandular tumors, and carcinoids. In general, the most common types of animal lung tumors are adenomas and, less frequently, adenocarcinomas. These tumors are usually multi focal, peripheral, infiltrative,* and oftwomajor types. Thefirst, a papillaryvariety,is the most common, and is especially frequent in domestic animals. It may be scirrhous and contain fod of osteochondral metaplasia. The other is a bronchiolo-alveolar variant and may also be slightly papillary. Only 4 percent of tumors ofthe second type metastasize.01 Although these less common alveolar tumors have been extensively studied In both humans and laboratory animals, confusion still exists as to their possi ble infectious nature, as well as to their precise ceil oforigin.,7,w*", In veterinary praclice, animats are either killed prematurely or cannot be observed continuously. The frequent diagnostic clinical information so helpful in human medicine is therefore often not available to the comparative pathologist. For this reason, it is frequently im possible to precisely diagnose a great a umber of animal tumors, since many of these neoplasias cannot be properly evaluated by histologic criteria alone. Furthermore, studies based on abattoir material may miss primary tumors, e.g., adenocarcinomas Of the uterus"4 or squamous-cell carcinomas of the eyelid, which not infrequently metastasize to the lung.
The rarity of certain types of pulmonary tumors in animals may be related, in pan, to various genetic factors. Such cone! usions aresupported by the work of Heston and others.**-"*117 Many mammals, birds, and reptiles are exposed to atmospheric

pollutants but have neither an increased Incidence of long cancer nor any obvious urban-rural variation in the frequency of pulmonary neoplasia.1"*111 Atmospheric conditions and pollutants may considerably influence an individual's susceptibility to various pulmonary disorders, such as chronic bronchitis and pneumonia,11*-111 and these factors may, in turn, facilitate the development of lung tumors in humans already exposed to the potential carcinogens in cigarette smoke. The absence ofan ur ban-rural venation in the incidence of lung tumors in animals1Uf-,3U11 may be related to the fact that animals are not directly exposed to cigarette smoke, or at least not in a manner similar to humans.
Different factors predispose an individual to developing various types of tumors. These indude chronic inflammation, infection, and irritation. The circumstances under which a number of the tumors in this study developed strongly suggest that similar factors can also initiate the tumorous state in animals as well as humans, e.g., chronic ulcers in a stilt's wing (SDZ-8953) or on a pronghorn's eyelid (SDZ-8957) associated with squamous-cell carcinomas; herpetie intranuclear epithelial inclusions: associated with a pseudolymphoma in an elephant (SDZ-8083); and the fibrosarcoma of the femur in a maned wolf (SDZ-10282).
The biologic behavior and, occasionally, the histopathologic patterns of (he cap tive wild animals' tumors in this study were often similar to their domestic and human counterparts. For example, many of the animal tumors were found in older age groups, as they are in humans. Multiple primary tumors, not uncommon in domestic canine species, were seen in a captive wild dog (SDZ-U204). Secondary pulmonary tumors were more frequent than primary neopiastns, a finding consistent with most comparative tumor studies. Scirrhous iung tumors, common in cattle, were found in a captive wild arttodactyl (SDZ-7823). and subepitheliai glandular tumors, not infre quently seen in domestic cats, were noted in1 a clouded leopard (SDZ-4795).
There are only several known animal models for the study of the predominant forms of human lung cancer.1" Moreover, spontaneous squamous-cell carcinomas regularly occur in the wild European hamster, but their frequency compared to that in humans is quite low.1-'" In addition, only one oat-cell carcinoma has been reported in any animal,1 and other less common tumors, such as the pulmonary carcinoid, are rarely found in any species but humans.1-*4
Vertebrates other than humans are generally thought to have a low incidence of pulmonary neoplasia. Althougn in most cases this is probably true, many of the animals described in this study may have died in the middte of their potential life span. Human pulmonary carcinomas, however, commonly have a peak incidence near the end oftiie natural life span. Thus, the true incidence of animal lung tumors may actu ally be higher than is currently appreciated. Still, over 2,000 neoplasms from more than 13,000 autopsies were reviewed in the present study, and among all of these there was not one primary puimonary tumorof the type commonly associated with smoking in humans.
