“…Moreover, according to the results of the OSHRI survey in 2012, the indium concentration ( n = 9) in the total dust in the Korean indium target manufacturing industry produced an arithmetic mean of 121 µg/m 3 , a geometric mean of 54.7 µg/m 3 , and a maximum value of 502.1. The concentrations measured in this study were 27.3 µg/m 3 , 18.0 µg/m 3 , and 68.4 µg/m 3 , respectively, which confirms that the past concentration levels [ 14 ].…”

“…In this study, the mean respirable indium fraction of the total dust was 30%, which is relatively high. A large-scale study in Korea previously estimated the fraction of respirable indium dust ( n = 13) from the total dust ( n = 16) at 39% [ 14 ]. A comparable Japanese study revealed the mean respirable fraction in the indium manufacturing process ( n = 17) to be 38% (Total In/Respirable In 2.64) [ 15 ], and a similar study in the US revealed a mean respirable indium fraction of 30% (respirable In: 10.9 µg/m 3 ; inhalable In: 36.5 µg/m 3 ) [ 16 ], consistent with the results of this study.…”
