TL;DR: It is suggested that exposure to even a low concentration of DDAC may inhibit cell growth and cause oxidative stress in lung epithelial cells.

TL;DR: Pulmonary exposure to these two chemicals commonly found in commercial products can be a potential hazard to human health, and EG appears to amplify the harmful effects of DDAC on the lung.

TL;DR: Results demonstrated that CBNP attachment to quartz sand can be enhanced by increasing the electrolyte concentration, and the sticking efficiencies calculated from the mass recovery by colloid filtration theory were in the range from 2.1×10(-2) to 4.5×10−1, demonstrating a much stronger effect of Ca(2+) than Na(+) on CBNP transport.

TL;DR: The results suggest that the toxic effects of BAC and BAC/TEG aerosols on the different respiratory organs may be associated with the difference in particle diameter, since particle size is important in determining the deposition site of inhaled materials.

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors compared the concentration and characteristics of nanoparticles at nine workplaces of three types; i.e., small laboratories (LAB), large-scale engineered nanoparticle manufacturing workplaces (ENP), and unintended nanoparticle-emitting workplaces (UNP), using real-time monitoring devices including scanning mobility particle sizers (SMPS), condensation particle counters (CPC), surface area monitors (SAM), and gravimetric sampling.
