An excerpt from ISNetworld® RAVS®* Safety Plan Beryllium Program
Primary Health Effects Associated with Exposure to Beryllium
The most common health effects associated with overexposure to Beryllium in the workplace include: Beryllium sensitization, chronic Beryllium disease (CBD), Acute Beryllium Disease, and lung cancer.
• Beryllium Sensitization - Beryllium sensitization is the activation of the body’s immune response to Beryllium. Beryllium sensitization can result from inhalation or skin exposure to Beryllium dust, fume, mist, or solutions. While no clinical symptoms are associated with sensitization, a sensitized worker is at risk of developing CBD when inhalation exposure to Beryllium has occurred.
Beryllium
The element Beryllium is a grey metal that is stronger than steel and lighter than aluminum. Its physical properties of great strength-to-weight, high melting point, excellent thermal stability and conductivity, reflectivity, and transparency to X-rays make it an essential material in the aerospace, telecommunications, information technology, defense, medical, and nuclear industries.
