FILE NAME Talc TALC DATE 2019 July DOC TALC187 DOCUMENT DESCRIPTION Public Health Then and Now Article - Nondetected- The Politics of Measurement of Asbestos in Talc 1971-1976 PUBLIC HEALTH THEN AND NOW Nondetected The Politics of Measurement of Asbestos in Talc 1971-1976 David Rosner PhD MPH Gerald Markowitz PhD and Merlin Chowkwanyun PhD MPH The recent lawsuits against Johnson & Johnson have raised the issue of what and when talcum powder manufacturers knew about the presence of asbestos in their products and what they did or did not do to protect the public level exposure to asbestos in talc is said to result in either mesothelioma or ovarian cancer Johnson & Johnson has claimed that there was no detectable asbestos in their products and that any possible incidental presence was too small to act as a carcinogen But what exactly does nondetected mean Here we examine the historical development of the argument that asbestos in talcum powder was nondetected We use a unique set of historical documents from the early 1970s when level pollution of talc with asbestos consumed the cosmetics industry We trace the debate over the Food and Drug Administration's efforts to guarantee that talc was up to 99.99 free of chrysotile and 99.9 free of amphibole asbestos Cosmetic talc powder manufacturers through their trade association pressed for a less stringent methodology and adopted the term nondetected rather than asbestos as a term of art Am J Public Health Published online ahead of print May 16 2019 e6 doi AJPH.2019.305085 "herecent lawsuits against Johnson & Johnson and particularly the 4.8 billion verdict against the company have raised the issue of what and when talcum powder manufac- turers knew about the presence of asbestos in their products and what they did or did not do to protect the public.,, Since the 1960s asbestos even at low levels has been recognized as a cause of lung cancer and mesothelioma Since the early 1970s the cosmetics industry as represented by the Cosmetic Toiletry and Fragrance Association CTFA has claimed that there was either no asbestos or that any residual asbestos in their products was nondetected But what exactly does nondetected mean Here we examine the historical devel- opment of the argument that asbestos in talcum powder was nondetectable We use a unique set of historical documents from the early 1970s when the Food and Drug Administration FDA raised concerns over findings of low level pollution of talc with asbestoWse trace the debate over the FDA's efforts to guarantee that talc was up to 99.99 free of chrysotile and 99.9 free of amphibole asbestos Talc pow- der companies counterproposals were less stringent they proposed methodologies that were capable of detecting asbestos up to 99.5 The difference in these methodologies meant that potentially billions of asbestos fibers could be released into the air when babies were powdered or adults powdered themselves Cosmetic talc powder manufacturers pressed for the less stringent methodology and adopted the term nondetected asbestos rather than asbestos- free as a term of art The CTFA the industry trade association which represented companies such as Johnson & Johnson Col- gate Pfizer Mennen Avon and other manufacturers of cosmetic talc products spearheaded the efforts to define how to measure asbestos in talc These contests over method- ology were enormously important They should be seen as part of parallel battles over operationalization of regulatory terms Since 1958 the FDA had been embroiled in controversy over proper interpretation of the so- called Delaney clause which banned approval of food additives that were carcinogenic But how exactly to define zero as historian Sarah Vogel puts it was far from evident and resulted in decades of debates over the clause's interpretation.
