Indoor particulate matter in developing countries: a case study in Pakistan and potential intervention strategies [PDF]
, 2013 Around three billion people, largely in low and middle income countries, rely on biomass fuels for their household energy needs. The combustion of these fuels generates a range of hazardous indoor air pollutants and is an important cause of morbidity and

Angiogenic activity in vivo of the particulate matter (PM10)
Ecotoxicology and Environmental Safety, 2017 Particulate matter (PM) is the most efficient vehicle for the inhalation and absorption of toxic substances into the body.The present study was aimed at testing the hypothesis that PM10 samples collected on quartz filters exert an angiogenic activity in vivo in the chick embryo chorioallantoic membrane (CAM) assay.When the low, medium, and high PM10 ...

The Effects of Bus Ridership on Airborne Particulate Matter (PM10) Concentrations [PDF]
Sustainability, 2016 Air pollution caused by rapid urbanization and the increased use of private vehicles seriously affects citizens’ health. In order to alleviate air pollution, many cities have replaced diesel buses with compressed natural gas (CNG) buses that emit less exhaust gas.

Associations between fine and coarse particles and mortality in Mediterranean cities: results from the MED-PARTICLES project [PDF]
, 2013 Few studies have investigated the independent health effects of different size fractions of particulate matter (PM) in multiple locations, especially in Europe. We estimated the short-term effects of PM with aerodynamic diameter = 10 µm (PM10), = 2.5 µm

Investigation of Particulate Matter (PM10) Pollution in Ipoh City, Malaysia
International Journal of Integrated Engineering, 2021 Air pollution is one of the phenomena that adversely affect the environment and negatively impact human health. Air pollution occurs when there are excessive air pollutants in the atmosphere. This study aims to identify and discuss the sources of PM10 emissions according to land use around Ipoh using descriptive and boxplot analysis.
