Particulate matter (PM) emissions involve a complex mixture of solid and liquid particles
suspended in a gas, where it is noted that PM emissions from diesel engines are a major …

Nanocarriers (NCs) are a type of drug delivery system commonly used to regulate the
pharmacokinetic and pharmacodynamic properties of drugs. Although a wide variety of NCs …

Environmental persistent free radicals (EPFRs) are new environmental health risk
substances in the atmosphere, and their oxidative toxicity (OT) has not been strongly …

Particulate air pollution being recognized to be responsible for short and long term health
effects, regulations for particulate matter with an aerodynamic diameter less than 2.5 (PM …

Abstract PM 2.5 (particulate matter with the aerodynamic diameter D p< 2.5 μm) was
hypothesized to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and induce oxidative stress …

We assess the potential of the water-soluble fraction of atmospheric fine aerosols in the
southeastern United States to generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) and identify major …

We compare the relative toxicity of various organic aerosol (OA) components identified by an
aerosol mass spectrometer (AMS) based on their ability to generate reactive oxygen species …

Air Pollution has been associated with significant adverse health effects leading to
increased morbidity and mortality. Cumulative epidemiological and experimental data have …

Background The oxidative potential (OP) of particulate matter (PM) has been proposed as a
more health relevant metric than PM mass. Different assays exist for measuring OP and little …

Background: Specific characteristics of particulate matter (PM) responsible for associations
with respiratory health observed in epidemiological studies are not well established. High …
