Exposure to fine particulate matter (PM 2.5) and their associated microcontaminants have
been linked to increased harmful effects on the human health. In this study, the possible …

On the basis of the close relationship between human exposure to high concentrations of
small particulate matter (PM) and increased lung cancer mortality, PM was recently …

Inhalation of atmospheric particulates is an significant way for polycyclic aromatic
hydrocarbons (PAHs) and substituted PAHs (SPAHs) to enter the human lungs. Some …

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) have been of health concern due to its
carcinogenesis and mutagenesis. In this study, we aimed to assess the variations, sources …

Levels, compositions, sources, and cancer risks of fine particle (PM 2.5)-bound PAHs were
investigated at an urban site of Wuhan, Central China. Totally 115 PM 2.5 samples collected …

Ambient air samples were collected at two different locations between 2011 and 2012 in
Zhengzhou, China in order to assess the concentration level, health risks, as well as the …

In the present work, we investigated the characteristics of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons
(PAHs) and metal (loid) s in indoor/outdoor PM 10, PM 2.5, and PM 1 in a retirement home …

Particulate matter (PM) is a major factor contributing to air quality deterioration that enters
the atmosphere as a consequence of various natural and anthropogenic activities. In PM …

Indoor dust samples were collected across China in the winter of 2010 from 45 private
domiciles and 36 public buildings. 16 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) were …

Environmental pollutants such as microplastics have become a major concern over the last
few decades. We investigated the presence, characteristics, and potential health risks of …
