Analysis of Air Pollution
This research paper is an attempt towards analyzing real time air pollution data collected by PAQS sensor devices from some key locations in Bangalore. Air pollution in most of the metropolitan cities in India is turning out to be a major threat to our environment and hazardous to our health. Many infections and diseases related to lungs and throat are caused by the polluted air we breathe. The...
متن کاملRemoval of ultrafine particles by ventilation air filters
The fractional filtration efficiency for particles ranging from 5 nm to 100 nm was estimated based on previous publications. The downstream concentration and size distribution was calculated for each of four outdoor aerosols representing both urban and rural conditions. When interpreting data expressed as the total number concentration (dp>5 nm), the studied F7filter (corresponding roughly to M...
متن کاملAir pollution and retained particles in the lung.
Epidemiologic evidence associates particulate air pollution with cardiopulmonary morbidity and mortality. The biological mechanisms underlying these associations and the relationship between ambient levels and retained particles in the lung remain uncertain. We examined the parenchymal particle content of 11 autopsy lungs from never-smoking female residents of Mexico City, a region with high am...
متن کاملAir pollution ultrafine particles: toxicity beyond the lung.
BACKGROUND Ultrafine particles or nanoparticles (UFPs or PM0.1) are the fraction of ambient particulates with an aerodynamic diameter smaller than 0.1 microm. Currently UFPs are emerging as the most abundant particulate pollutants in urban and industrial areas, as their exposures have increased dramatically because of anthropogenic sources such as internal combustion engines, power plants, inci...
متن کاملAlveolar macrophage cytokine response to air pollution particles: oxidant mechanisms.
Alveolar macrophages (AMs) primed with LPS and treated with concentrated ambient air particles (CAPs) showed enhanced release of tumor necrosis factor (TNF) and provide an in vitro model for the amplified effects of air pollution particles seen in people with preexisting lung disease. To investigate the mechanism(s) by which CAPs mediate TNF release in primed rat AMs, we first tested the effect...
