Human exposure to aerosol from indoor gas stove cooking and the resulting nervous system responses.

Our knowledge of the effects of exposure to indoor ultrafine particles (sub-100 nm, #/cm ) on human brain activity is very limited. The effects of cooking ultrafine particles (UFP) on healthy adults were assessed using an electroencephalograph (EEGs) for brain response. Peak ultrafine particle concentrations were approximately 3 × 10 particle/cm and the average level was 1.

The impact on heart rate and blood pressure following exposure to ultrafine particles from cooking using an electric stove.

Cooking is a major source of indoor particulate matter (PM), especially ultrafine particles (UFPs). Long-term exposure to fine and ultrafine particles (UFPs) has been associated with adverse human health effects. Toxicological studies have demonstrated that exposure to PM (particles with aerodynamic diameter smaller than 2.

The impact of frying aerosol on human brain activity.

Knowledge on the impact of the exposure to indoor ultrafine particles (UFPs) on the human brain is restricted. Twelve non-atopic, non-smoking, and healthy adults (10 female and 7 male, in average 22 years old) were monitored for brain physiological responses via electroencephalographs (EEGs) during cooking. Frying ground beef meat in sunflower oil using electric stove without ventilation was conducted.
