Sulfur dioxide (SO2), an emerging gasotransmitter, was discovered to be endogenously generated in the cardiovascular system. Recently, the physiological effects of endogenous SO2 were confirmed. Vascular structural remodeling (VSR), an important pathological change in many cardiovascular diseases, plays a crucial role in the pathogenesis of the diseases. Here, the authors reviewed the research ...

Epidemiologic studies in worldwide have measured increases in mortality and morbidity associated with air pollution (1-3). Quantifying the effects of air pollution on the human health in urban area causes an increasingly critical component in policy discussion (4-6). Air Q model was proved to be a valid and reliable tool to predicts health effects related to criteria  pollutants (particula...

ered sulfur (30%) and sulfur glass (30%) give a better fit to the spectral features than do other candidate materials. We use chemical equilibrium calculations to model S2O forEarlier, Hapke (1989) proposed a mixture of solid S2O mation by high temperature thermochemical reactions in volcanic gases on Io. The calculations predict formation of 1–6% S2O with SO2 frost, polysulfur oxides (SxO)y , ...

The version 4.0 dataset from the Atmospheric Chemistry Experiment – Fourier Transform Spectrometer (ACE-FTS) on SCISAT, released in March of 2019, has sulfur dioxide (SO2) volume mixing ratio (VMR) profiles as a routine data product. From this dataset, global SO2 distributions between altitudes 10.5 km and 23.5 are analyzed. distribution all VMR by altitude is broken down into 30° 5° latitude z...

Density functional theory calculations and wave analysis are used to examine the (SO2)n (SO2)n–H2O clusters with n = 1–7. The nature of interactions is explored by molecular electrostatic potentials, electron density distribution, atoms in molecules, noncovalent interaction, energy decomposition analysis. putative global minimum SO2 molecules has a 3D growth pattern tetrahedral. In hydrated clu...

introduction sulfur dioxide has been widely studied among the human- made pollutants. air pollution is a major environmental risk to health. the less air pollution, the better the cardiovascular and respiratory health of the population will be, both long- and short-term. several studies have demonstrated relation between on short and long term effects exposure to air pollutants with human healt...

[1] Fast time resolution (>1 Hz) sulfur dioxide (SO2) measurements were obtained using an atmospheric pressure ionization mass spectrometer with isotopically labeled internal standard on the NASA Wallops P-3B during the NASA Transport and Chemical Evolution Over the Pacific (TRACE-P) field experiment. The high time resolution for SO2 allowed a view into the dynamics of SO2 transport, including ...

The aims of the present study were to provide quantitative data on the impact of air pollution on the health of people living in Tehran city, the most populated city of Iran. The approach proposed by the World Health Organization (WHO) was applied using the AirQ 2.2.3 software developed by the WHO European Centre for Environment and Health, Bilthoven Division. Concentrations of ozone, nitrogen ...

Two new University of Arkansas table grape cultivars, Reliance (25% Vitis vinifera L. x 75% Vitis labrusca L.) and Saturn (78% Vitis vinifera L. x 22% Vitis labrusca L.), were stored for seven and 10 weeks at 2°C in corrugated cardboard shipping containers with five packing treatments (slow, dual, and quick-release SO2 generators and lined and unlined controls). The SO2 treatments consisted of ...
