Mobile Air Quality Studies (MAQS): An international project [PDF]
Due to an increasing awareness of the potential hazardousness of air pollutants, new laws, rules and guidelines have recently been implemented globally. In this respect, numerous studies have addressed traffic-related exposure to particulate matter using

New organic matter degradation proxies: Valid in lake systems? [PDF]
We determined concentrations and diagenetic state of organic matter in two cores from Lake Zug, Switzerland. To obtain a general picture of organic matter decay in the lake, we measured bulk parameters such as total organic carbon, total nitrogen, and ...

Particulate Matter and Nanoparticles Toxicology [PDF]
Humans have been exposed for thousands of years to particulate matter (PM) from natural and anthropogenic sources. Since the first third of the twentieth century, health problems related to dust exposure in miners have been documented [1]. Early epidemiological data have shown evidence of the relation between inhalation of PM and several lung diseases,

ABSTRACT Purpose Air pollution has been linked to several neurological conditions, including stroke and neurodegenerative diseases. Evidence regarding its association with multiple sclerosis (MS) remains conflicting, limited by small sample sizes. Methods PubMed, Embase, Scopus, and Cochrane controlled register of trials (CENTRAL) were searched on ...

Analysis of Particulate Matter Composition
According to current research, particulate matter (PM) has a negative impact on citizens in particular (respiratory and cardiovascular diseases). Based on EU studies, deaths of 347,900 Europeans are attributable to air pollution. Formation of particulate

"Safety health impacts of particulate matter from excavation work sites" [PDF]
Gli studi epidemiologici hanno evidenziato una relazione lineare tra il particolato aerodisperso e gli effetti sulla salute dell'uomo. E' dunque interessante comprendere quale sia realmente il rischio a cui va incontro la popolazione esposta ad ...

Near‐Field Electrospinning Micro‐Printhead Achieves Precise Control of Nanofiber Deposition
A micro‐printhead for near‐field electrospinning enables reproducible deposition of polymer nanofibers with diameters below 50 nm. Systematic parameter studies uncover the mechanisms linking operating conditions to fiber morphology, paving the way for precise and low‐cost nanoscale 3D manufacturing.As a high‐resolution, cost‐effective, and rapid ...
