Use of real-time sensors to characterise human exposures to combustion related pollutants.
Concentrations of black carbon and nitrogen dioxide have been collected concurrently using a MicrAeth AE-51 and an Aeroqual GSS NO(2) sensor. Forty five sampling events with a duration spanning between 16 and 22 hours have collected 10,800 5 min data in Birmingham (UK) from July to October 2011. The high temporal resolution database allowed identification of peak exposures and which activities ...
متن کاملCanines as sentinel species for assessing chronic exposures to air pollutants: part 1. Respiratory pathology.
A complex mixture of air pollutants is present in the ambient air in urban areas. People, animals, and vegetation are chronically and sequentially exposed to outdoor pollutants. The objective of this first of 2 studies is to evaluate by light and electron microscopy the lungs of Mexico City dogs and compare the results to those of 3 less polluted cities in MEXICO: One hundred fifty-two clinical...
متن کاملField experience with volume traps for assessing retrospective radon exposures.
Approximately 200 volume traps were retrieved from dwellings in various radon prone areas in Europe. They were analysed for the purpose of retrospective radon assessment. Emphasis is put on specific problems encountered when using field samples as opposed to laboratory exposed samples. It was seen that in very dusty circumstances, direct penetration of radon decay products from the outside to t...
متن کاملHealth effects related to nanoparticle exposures: environmental, health and safety considerations for assessing hazards and risks.
The field of nanotechnology currently is undergoing a dramatic expansion in material science research and development. Most of the research efforts have been focused on applications; the implications (i.e., health and environmental effects) research has lagged behind. The success of nanotechnology will require assurances that the products being developed are safe from an environmental, health, ...
متن کاملComplex exposures: potentials for assessing integrated exposures.
To determine empirically the most probable mode of interaction of chemicals given in combination, major occupational health, environmental health, and toxicology journals published in the past 10 years were sorted by eye for studies on noncarcinogenic and nonteratogenic effects of industrial and environmental chemicals in combination. Of the 159 relevant studies, 49 reported "more than additive...
