Fine particulate matter air pollution and atherosclerosis: Mechanistic insights

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - General Subjects, 2016
Atherosclerosis is a progressive disease characterized by the accumulation of lipids and fibrous plaque in the arteries. Its etiology is very complicated and its risk factors primarily include genetic defects, smoking, hyperlipidemia, hypertension, lack of exercise, and infection.

Sources of fine urban particulate matter in Detroit, MI

Chemosphere, 2007
Data from the speciation trends network (STN) was used to evaluate the amount and temporal patterns of particulate matter originating from local industrial sources and long-range transport at two sites in Detroit, MI: Allen Park, MI, southwest of both Detroit and the areas of heavy industrial activity; Dearborn, MI, located on the south side of Detroit

Seasonal variability of endotoxin in ambient fine particulate matter

Journal of Environmental Monitoring, 2003
Endotoxin is a toxic, pro-inflammatory compound that has been detected in indoor air and dust in homes and occupational settings, and also in outdoor air. Data on the outdoor sampling of endotoxin are limited. Currently, little is known about the seasonal variation and influence of temperature on outdoor endotoxin levels.

Coral suspension feeding on fine particulate matter

Journal of Experimental Marine Biology and Ecology, 1999
High concentrations of fine suspended particulate matter (SPM) on nearshore coral reefs are generally assumed to be a stress factor for corals. However, the extent to which SPM serves as a food source for corals has not been quantified. Using ¹⁴C-labelled natural particulate matter, this study investigates the relationship between concentration and ...

Source Contributions to Ambient Fine Particulate Matter for Canada

Environmental Science & Technology, 2019
Understanding the sectoral contribution of emissions to fine particulate matter (PM2.5) offers information for air quality management, and for investigation of association with health outcomes. This study evaluates the contribution of different emission sectors to PM2.5 in 2013 for Canada using the GEOS-Chem chemical transport model, downscaled with ...

Transport of Atmospheric Fine Particulate Matter: Part 2—Findings from Recent Field Programs on the Intraurban Variability in Fine Particulate Matter

Journal of the Air & Waste Management Association, 2008
Air quality field data, collected as part of the fine particulate matter Supersites Program and other field measurements programs, have been used to assess the degree of intraurban variability for various physical and chemical properties of ambient fine particulate matter.
