The toxic effects of indoor atmospheric fine particulate matter collected from allergic and non-allergic families in Wuhan on mouse peritoneal macrophages.

Recent studies have shown that fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is associated with multiple adverse health outcomes and PM2.5-induced oxidative stress is now commonly known as a proposed mechanism of PM2.

Metallic corrosion in the polluted urban atmosphere of Hong Kong.

This study aimed to explore the relationship between air pollutants, particularly acidic particles, and metallic material corrosion. An atmospheric corrosion test was carried out in spring-summer 2012 at a polluted urban site, i.e.

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in PM2.5 in Guangzhou, southern China: spatiotemporal patterns and emission sources.

Fine particulate samples were simultaneously collected at six sites in Guangzhou in November-December 2009. Eighteen polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) and tracers, i.e.

Tracer-based source apportionment of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons in PM2.5 in Guangzhou, southern China, using positive matrix factorization (PMF).

From 28 November to 23 December 2009, 24-h PM2.5 samples were collected simultaneously at six sites in Guangzhou. Concentrations of 18 polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) together with certain molecular tracers for vehicular emissions (i.
