Journal ArticleDOI

Ambient particulate matter (PM2.5) : Physicochemical characterization and metabolic activation of the organic fraction in human lung epithelial cells (A549)

TL;DR: It is concluded that the metabolic activation of the very low doses of VOC and/or PAH-coated onto the inorganic condensation nuclei from Dunkerque City's PM is one of the underlying mechanisms of action closely involved in its cytotoxicity in human lung epithelial cells.
Journal ArticleDOI

Activation of different pathways of apoptosis by air pollution particulate matter (PM2.5) in human epithelial lung cells (L132) in culture.

TL;DR: PM exposure induced apoptosis by activating not only the tumor necrosis factor-alpha (TNF-alpha)-induced pathway, but also the mitochondrial pathway (i.e. 8-hydroxy-2'-desoxyguanosine formation, cytochrome c release from mitochondria, caspase-9 and -3 activation).
Journal ArticleDOI

Polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon derivatives in airborne particulate matter: sources, analysis and toxicity

TL;DR: A review of sources, the mechanisms of formation, physicochemical properties, analytical methods, and the toxicological effects of polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons and their derivatives in airborne particulate matter can be found in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Chemical profile identification of fugitive and confined particle emissions from an integrated iron and steelmaking plant.

TL;DR: Dust samples collected from the blast furnace (BF) and steelmaking cast house may be distinguished from each other based on the higher levels of Fe (hematite and magnetite) and lower levels of Ca, Zn and C (graphite) found in BF dust.
