UK Study: Mesothelioma linked to fibers in tennis racquets. Get a free lawsuit review if you were harmed by asbestos.

A new link to mesothelioma cancer has emerged via a disturbing medical study. Tiny fibers used in tennis racquets, bicycle frames and some electronic equipment could be as dangerous to inhale as asbestos, the Telegraph newspaper in the United Kingdom said on May 20, 2008.

The study has linked the fibers, carbon nanotubes, with mesothelioma, a cancer of the lung lining. Thousands in the United Kingdom have died after asbestos exposure, the article said.

Carbon nanotubes, which are about 1/50,000th the size of a human hair, are extremely strong and able to transmit electricity.

The nanotubes have been used in around a dozen products including tennis racquets, baseball bats and electronics but experts predict their use will significantly increase in coming decades.

Sadly, this situation is all too familiar to the mesothelioma attorneys in the Weitz & Luxenberg P.C. Asbestos Litigation unit here in the United States.

We are a leading plaintiffs' law firm that has represented people affected by mesothelioma for over 20 years. Men and women diagnosed with mesothelioma or lung cancer caused by asbestos exposure may be entitled to compensation from the companies responsible for their disease.
