The Beryllium Thread

I'm putting this in here so that it won't hang around the top of the lounge while I cut and paste information in to post after post.

This is part of my ongoing offseaon attempt to get us ranked on the first page of some search engine(s) when nerds search for "beryllium".

Before you PM me with "Why?", the answer is simply that I am sitting around reading log files at work and cutting and pasting into this thread requires absolutely NO mental stress.

How do I know if I have beryllium sensitization or CBD?

Diagnosis of beryllium sensitization and CBD begins with a beryllium lymphocyte proliferation test (BeLPT). The BeLPT is a blood test that helps determine if your immune system recognizes beryllium as a foreign invader and responds by building an “army” of cells in the bloodstream that are prepared to react to beryllium. In individuals who do not have beryllium sensitization or CBD, the immune system does not respond to beryllium in any manner. The BeLPT is an important first step in diagnosing disease, but it cannot determine if you have CBD (scarring in the lungs or simply beryllium sensitization (“allergy” to beryllium). Additional testing is needed to determine whether or not you have disease.

Individuals with two or more abnormal BeLPT results are encouraged to undergo further evaluation to determine if they have CBD. This evaluation typically includes an appointment with a physician familiar with the health effects of beryllium, exercise tolerance testing , pulmonary function testing , a chest x-ray and B read, blood work, and bronchoscopy with biopsy and lavage. Based on the outcomes of these tests, your physician will likely be able to determine if you have CBD.

Medical surveillance programs for beryllium are designed to identify individuals with beryllium sensitization or CBD, as well as work practices that may cause beryllium sensitization and CBD. Surveillance programs typically have several components, including medical screening tests, exposure assessment, and work task analysis. Data collected during surveillance can help identify rates of sensitization and disease among individuals who perform similar types of work, leading to better exposure controls for all workers.

The Occupational Safety and Health Administration (OSHA) has set the permissible exposure limit (PEL) for beryllium at 2 micrograms per cubic meter in an 8-hour period. This is roughly equivalent to an amount of beryllium dust the size of a pencil tip spread across an area the length of a football field, 8 feet high. This standard has been shown to be inadequate to prevent beryllium sensitization and CBD 5,7,8, and many in the beryllium community and at OSHA are currently working to establish a lower limit in the workplace. Because we do not know of a definite “safe” level of exposure below which sensitization and disease do not occur, it is important to limit beryllium exposure to the lowest level possible. In the workplace, you should substitute another product for beryllium if at all possible, avoid dry sweeping of work areas, use proper exhaust ventilation and equipment, minimize the number of individuals who have access to areas where beryllium is used, ensure respirators fit properly and are used appropriately, change clothes before leaving the beryllium area and work facility, and ensure employees receive regular training on the proper handling of beryllium, as well as the hazards of beryllium exposure. For more information on safe work practices, or for an industrial hygiene consultation at your facility, please contact us at 1-800-423-8891, x1722, or via e-mail at beryllium@njc.org.
