OSHA set a permissible exposure limit (PEL) of  1-mg/m3 (total dust) for cotton dust in 1971.

Lead Section (i published these to the byssinosis article 2/10)
Byssinosis is also known as cotton worker's lung, mill fever, brown lung disease, and Monday fever.

There is a lack of information regarding the prevalence and impact of byssinosis in low and middle income countries (LMIC) despite the fact of the 25 million tons of cotton produced world wide, about two thirds of this production comes from LMICs like India, Pakistan, and China.

Treatment
Dust control measures can help reduce the risk of textile workers developing byssinosis.
