Abstract
Byssinosis, a respiratory disease, is caused by dust in cotton textile mills. The heterogeneous, complex dust varies in composition and activity in different "cotton-related" processing operations. Information concerning the constitution of "cotton dust" is reviewed. Relevance of a single dust standard for all cotton operations is discussed.Keywords
