Diesel motor emission is a complex mixture of hundreds of constituents in either gas or
particle form. Diesel particulate matter (DPM) is composed of a center core of elemental …

Nanosized fraction of particulate air pollution has been reported to translocate from the
airways into the bloodstream and act on different organs. However, the direct effect of these …

Abstract Analysis of fuel emissions is crucial for understanding the pathogenesis of mortality
because of air pollution. The objective of this study is to assess cardiovascular and …

In this study we compared a “baseline” condition of uncontrolled diesel engine exhaust
(DEE) emissions generated with current (circa 2003) certification fuel to an emissions …

Background Exposure to ambient particulate matter has been associated with a number of
adverse health effects. Particle characteristics such as size, surface area and chemistry …

Although several studies have reported that diesel exhaust particles (DEP) affect
cardiorespiratory health in animals and humans, the effect of DEP on animal models with …

Diesel exhaust particles (DEPs) are the main components of ambient particulate materials,
including polyaromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), n-PAHs, heavy metals, and gaseous …

One of the most widely used in vitro particulate matter (PM) exposures methods is the
collection of PM on filters, followed by resuspension in a liquid medium, with subsequent …

Diesel engine emissions are among the most prevalent anthropogenic pollutants worldwide,
and with the growing popularity of diesel-fueled engines in the private transportation sector …

We studied the impact of a catalyzed diesel particulate filter (DPF) on the toxicity of diesel
exhaust. Rats inhaled exhaust from a Cummins ISM heavy-duty diesel engine, with and …
