Abstract Ultrafine particles (PM0. 1), which are present in the air in large numbers, pose a
health risk. They generally enter the body through the lungs but translocate to essentially all …

Objectives Due to their small size, ultrafine particles (UFP) are believed to exert higher
toxicity than larger particles. As numerous studies on health effects of UFP have been …

Air pollution is a worrisome risk factor for global morbidity and mortality and plays a special
role in many respiratory conditions. It contributes to around 8 million deaths/year, with …

Each year, the general public and wildland firefighters in the US are exposed to smoke from
wildland fires. As part of an effort to characterize health risks of breathing this smoke, a …

Ultrafine particles (UFPs) are airborne particulates of less than 100 nm in aerodynamic
diameter. Examples of UFPs are diesel exhaust particles, products of cooking, heating, and …

While the effects of ambient air pollution on health have been studied extensively in many
developed countries, few studies have been conducted in Vietnam, where the population is …

In the last two decades, the incorporation of green roofs and living walls in buildings has
increased significantly worldwide because of their benefits such as building energy savings …

Large airports are a major source of ultrafine particles, which spread across densely
populated residential areas, affecting air quality and human health. Jet engine lubrication …

Ultrafine particles (UFP; particulate matter< 0.1 μm in diameter) may be more harmful to
human health than larger particles, but epidemiological evidence on their health effects is …

By convention, airborne particles≤ 0.1 μm (100 nm) are defined as ultrafine particles
(UFPs). UFPs can comprise a large number of particles in particulate matter with …
