Effect of Respirable Suspended Particulate Matter in Urban Ambient Air on Health of Traffic Policemen

Vehicular exhaust mainly consisting particulate matter sometimes called black carbon pollution is a mixture of solid and liquid components that form tiny particles that float in the air as a result of combustion of fuel. The aim of this study is to evaluate the effect of respirable suspended particulate matter (RSPM/PM10) on the automated count (WBC, TLC, DLC, ESR) and lipid profile (S. Cholest...

Investigation of Suspended and Settled Particulate Matter in Indoor Air"

Particulate matter is a natural part of the atmosphere, where the solid or liquid particles are suspended in the air. These suspended particles, also known as suspended particulate matter represents a dispersion aerosol system. In the air there are many types of microscopic airborne particles originated from both natural and anthropogenic processes, such as atmospheric clouds of water droplets,...

Characterization of Particulate Matter in Urban Air

Total suspended particulate matter and daily mortality in Cincinnati, Ohio.

Recent studies have associated particulate air pollution with daily mortality in a number of U.S. communities. This study sought to replicate those analyses in Cincinnati, Ohio, and to test the strength of the association to the deletion of days with extreme weather conditions and to sensitivity analyses in the analytical approach. This study demonstrates the use of graphical diagnostic procedu...

Effect of copper binding by suspended particulate matter on toxicity.

The kinetics of Cu(II) interactions with Susquehanna River (mid-Atlantic, USA) particle suspensions using the copper ion selective electrode (Cu-ISE) method indicated that the concentration of Cu2+ in both the suspension and filtrate was kinetically controlled; the reaction of Cu(II) in the suspension was faster than that in the filtrate. Bioassay tests were performed in continuous flow-through...
