The urban measurement station SMEAR III: Continuous monitoring of air pollution and surface-atmosphere interactions in Helsinki, Finland (2009, background): “For example ultrafine particles (UFP, aerodynamic diameter d 0.1 µm) can affect human health by penetrating deep into lungs and blood circulation (e.g. Nel 2005), and can act as cloud condensation nuclei and affect cloudiness.”
Mortality from ship emissions: a global assessment. (2007, background): “Numerous studies in recent years have consistently linked air pollution to negative health effects for exposed populations (13, 14).”
Nanomaterial cytotoxicity is composition, size, and cell type dependent (2010, background): “, coal and silicates), asbestos fibers, and experimental instillation of TiO2 and carbon black nanoparticles in animal lungs induce oxidative injury, inflammation, fibrosis, cytotoxicity, and release of pro-inflammatory mediators [1,3-5].”
Silk nanofibers as high efficient and lightweight air filter (2016, neutral): “Particulate matter (PM) air pollution is a worldwide problem, which poses a serious threat to human health [1–3].”
