since particulate matter (total suspended particles and particulate matter with median aerodynamic diameter less than 10 µm) is one of the important pollutants in the ambient air of tehran, the capital of iran, organic substances, inorganic substances and lead levels in tsp and pm10, correlation between tsp and pm10 concentrations, ratio among the two fractions and relation between tsp and pm10...

Recent studies have found associations between particulate air pollution and total and adult mortality. The relationship between particulate air pollution and mortality among infants has not been examined in the United States. This study evaluates the relationship between postneonatal infant mortality and particulate matter in the United States. Our study involved analysis of cohorts consisting...

BACKGROUND We report on a novel approach to the analysis of suspended particulate data in a rural setting in southern Ontario. Analyses of suspended particulate matter and associated air quality standards have conventionally focussed on 24-hour mean levels of total suspended particulates (TSP) and particulate matter <10 microns, <2.5 microns and <1 micron in diameter (PM10, PM2.5, PM1, respecti...

OBJECTIVE To analyze the association between daily mortality from different causes and acute exposure to particulate matter less than 10 microns in aerodynamic diameter (PM10), in Bogota, Colombia. MATERIALS AND METHODS A time-series ecological study was conducted from 1998 to 2006. The association between mortality (due to different causes) and exposure was analyzed using single and distribu...

OBJECTIVE To evaluate the modification effect of socioeconomic status (SES) on the association between acute exposure to particulate matter less than 10 microns in aerodynamic diameter (PM10) and mortality in Bogota, Colombia. MATERIALS AND METHODS A time-series ecological study was conducted (1998-2006). The localities of the cities were stratified using principal components analysis, creati...

3. Applicable Pollutants: Particulate Matter (PM), including particulate matter less than or equal to 10 micrometers (μm) in aerodynamic diameter (PM10), particulate matter less than or equal to 2.5 μm in aerodynamic diameter (PM2.5), and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) that are in particulate form, such as most metals (except mercury is the notable exception, as a significant portion of emissi...

Applicable Pollutants: Particulate Matter (PM), including particulate matter less than or equal to 10 micrometers (:m) in aerodynamic diameter (PM10), particulate matter less than or equal to 2.5 :m in aerodynamic diameter (PM2.5), and hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) that are in particulate form, such as most metals (mercury is the notable exception, as a significant portion of emissions are in...

Abstract (PM) Particulate matter is frequently cited as a cause of sickness. It confusing combination various chemical Aerosols and solids composed tiny fluid, dry solid broken pieces, particles pulps utilising liquid composites. For the goal regulating quality air, are classified by their diameter despite vast variation in size, shape, makeup, Those Particles with size ten microns or less (.P....

The aim of this study was to estimate the association between exposure to particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter and hospitalization for respiratory disease. It was an ecological time series study with daily indicators of hospitalization for respiratory diseases in children up to 10 years old, living in Piracicaba, SP, Southeastern Brazil, between August 1, 2011 and July 31, 2012....
