Exposure to indoor and outdoor air pollution among children under five years old in urban area
Indoor air pollution associated with cooking and heating biomass fuel burning is estimated to be responsible for 7 million deaths in 2016 and most of these deaths occur in low and middle income countries. In Côte d'Ivoire, 73% of the population is reported using biomass (charcoal or wood) for cooking. The active device 3M EVM-7 was used to measure PM2.5 daily average concentrations i...

متن کاملCytotoxicity of Long and Short Crocidolite Asbestos Fibers
Fiber length and diameter are important factors in the pathogenicity of asbestos. We examined the relative toxicity of long and short crocidolite asbestos fibers in vitro and in vivo. Both long and short crocidolite asbestos fibers were toxic to elicited macrophages in vitro. Similar to native crocidolite asbestos, long and short Tibers stimulated the release of reactive oxygen metabolites from...
متن کاملLong crocidolite asbestos fibers cause polyploidy by sterically blocking cytokinesis.
Asbestos has been described as a physical carcinogen in that its carcinogenic effects appear to be related primarily to fiber dimensions. It has been hypothesized that long asbestos fibers may interfere with chromosome distribution during cell division, causing genomic changes that lead to cell transformation and neoplastic progression. Using high-resolution time-lapse light microscopy and seri...
