Exposure of particulate matter (PM10) induces neurodevelopmental toxicity in zebrafish embryos

NeuroToxicology, 2021
Particulate matter with 10 μm or less in diameter (PM10) exposure is a major threat to health and environment around the world. Even though a number of clinical and experimental studies have focused on the cardiopulmonary effects of PM10, its impact on neurovascular development and the underlying toxicity is relatively less studied.

Carbonaceous Aerosol in the Breathable Particulate Matter (PM10) in Urban Area

Annali di Chimica, 2004
AbstractCarbonaceous material is a large fraction of urban aerosol and it is classified into Elemental Carbon (EC) and Organic Carbon (OC). EC particles are emitted from combustion sources. Because most combustion sources are anthropogenic and generally EC does not undergo chemical transformations, EC is a good indicator of primary anthropogenic ...

In vivo and in vitro evidence for the involvement of Nrf2-antioxidant response element signaling pathway in the inflammation and oxidative stress induced by particulate matter (PM10): the effective role of gallic acid

Free radical research, 2019
Environmental pollution is one of the risk factors for respiratory diseases. The nuclear factor erythroid 2-related factor 2 (Nrf2) is the major mechanisms contributing to cellular defense against oxidative damage.

Analysis of Roadside Inhalable Particulate Matter (PM10) in Major Korean Cities

Environmental Management, 2005
A data analysis of three major Korean cities was conducted to assess roadside inhalable particulate matter 10 microm or smaller in aerodynamic diameter (PM10), including temporal and meteorological variations, over a recent period of 4 to 6 years. The yearly roadside PM10 concentrations presented a well-defined increasing trend or no trend depending on

Multi-elemental analysis of particulate matter PM2.5 and PM10 by ICP OES

Talanta, 2021
The complexity of aerodynamic particulate matter's (PM) matrices poses a challenge for the extraction and quantification of metals, especially for analytes with low concentration. Aiming to solve this issue, a precise and accurate protocol with the ultrasound extraction combined with microwave radiation digestion (USMW), was applied to PM samples with ...

Mutagenicity monitoring of airborne particulate matter (PM10) in the Czech Republic

Mutation Research/Genetic Toxicology and Environmental Mutagenesis, 1999
The mutagenic activities associated with inhalable airborne particulate matter (PM10) collected over a year in four towns (Czech Republic) have been determined. The dichloromethane extracts were tested for mutagenicity using the Ames plate incorporation test and the Kado microsuspension test both with Salmonella typhimurium TA98 and its derivative ...

Influence of tobacco smoke on indoor PM10 particulate matter characteristics

Atmospheric Environment, 2006
Abstract In this study we evaluate the influence of tobacco smoke on the physico-chemical characteristics of PM 10 in different environments: outdoors, a smoking room, the same room after a 7-day absence of smokers and in a smoke-free office. The latter office was close to the smoking room, separated by a corridor.

Mutagenicity of airborne particulate matter PM10.

Central European journal of public health, 2004
Mutagenic activity of extractable organic matter (EOM), from airborne particles collected over winters in four towns of Czech Republic, was investigated by the means of Salmonella typhimurium indicator strains TA98 and YG1041 using the Ames plate incorporation assay.

[Particulate matter PM10, NO2 and exacerbations of chronic respiratory diseases].

Semergen, 2022
The new World Health Organization guidelines recommend studies with simultaneous exposure to multiple air pollutants. The main objective has been to analyze the strength of the association between different concentrations of PM10 and NO2 and the exacerbation of chronic respiratory diseases (ECRD), specifically asthma and chronic obstructive pulmonary ...

Spatial distribution of particulate matter (PM10) in Warri metropolis, Nigeria

The Environmentalist, 2008
This study examined the spatial distribution of particulate air pollution in the Warri metropolis. This was done to ascertain the differences between the distribution of particulate matter (PM10) in the urban area and the surrounding rural areas. To achieve this, the study generated data from field measurement of PM10 levels for the year 2003. Analysis
