    Speaker Notes: Dust that is in the non-visible size range is also in the respirable range, which means that it is the most hazardous. Most dusts consist of particles of various sizes. Generally, dust particles smaller than 10 micrometers in size are considered respirable and can penetrate into the lung cavity.
