Particulate matter (PM) oxidative potential: Measurement methods and links to PM physicochemical characteristics and health effects

Linchen He et al.

Summary: This article summarizes the pathophysiologic pathway linking particulate matter (PM) exposure and adverse health effects, specifically the induction of reactive oxygen species (ROS). The article focuses on the oxidative potential (OP) of PM, which refers to the capacity of PM to oxidize molecules in biological tissues or cells. The review suggests that cellular assays are better at reflecting the actions of PM in a biological system compared to acellular assays. Short-term exposure to PM OP has been associated with adverse cardiorespiratory health outcomes, but the health effects of long-term exposure and beyond the cardiovascular and respiratory systems are not well-known. The existing evidence may be sufficient to support the use of PM OP as a more health-relevant exposure metric than conventional PM mass concentration, but critical methodologic issues need to be addressed.

Automated SEM-EDS Analysis of Transition Metals and Other Metallic Compounds Emitted from Incinerating Agricultural Waste Plastic Film

Tae-Han Kim et al.

Summary: Illegal open burning is a major source of air pollutants in agricultural activities, requiring continuous effort and attention from countries worldwide. This study conducted experiments to simulate open-air incineration and analyzed particulate matter using automated SEM-EDS. The results showed that waste mulching adsorbs metal chemicals from the soil and emits particulate matter containing transition metals and other metals during incineration, leading to excessive ROS production and reduction.

Internal Exposure and Distribution of Airborne Fine Particles in the Human Body: Methodology, Current Understandings, and ResearchNeeds

Weichao Wang et al.

Summary: Exposure to PM2.5 is a significant threat to human health globally. Understanding the distribution and processes of inhaled PM2.5 in the human body is crucial for establishing the causal links between PM2.5 pollution and diseases. However, research on the occurrence and fate of PM2.5 in humans is still limited. Therefore, further studies are needed to investigate the exposure pathways, distribution, and causal relationships between PM2.5 and diseases in the human body.

Composition of fine particulate matter and risk of preterm birth: A nationwide birth cohort study in 336 Chinese cities

Yuan He et al.

Summary: The study found that carbonaceous components of PM2.5 were associated with higher risk of preterm birth, with early pregnancy appearing to be the critical exposure window for most constituents. Older age, exposure to second-hand smoke, pre-pregnancy overweight or obesity, conception during winter, and living in northern China or rural areas were factors that made women more susceptible.

Critical review on the development of analytical techniques for the elemental analysis of airborne particulate matter

Monika Ogrizek et al.

Summary: Particulate matter (PM) is the major threat to our health among all environmental pollutants, and its regular monitoring is required. To determine the concentrations of toxic metals and other elements in PM, microwave digestion inductively coupled plasma mass spectrometry (MW/ICPMS) and X-ray fluorescence (XRF) techniques are commonly used. This review paper critically assesses these two techniques as well as three others for element determination in PM deposited on filter media, and identifies XRF and LA-ICPMS as two promising surface techniques for the analysis of PM deposits.

Policy-driven variations in oxidation potential and source apportionment of PM2.5 in Wuhan, central China

Mengjie Deng et al.

Summary: This study assessed the measures implemented by China to control PM2.5 pollution and improve air quality. The results indicated a significant decrease in PM2.5 concentrations, but limited changes in health risks and an increase in intrinsic toxicity. Vehicle emissions and secondary aerosol sources were identified as major contributors to PM2.5, with significant impacts on human health. Thus, targeting vehicle emissions for control is crucial for future policymaking.

Indoor concentrations of PM2.5and associated water-soluble and labile heavy metal fractions in workplaces: implications for inhalation health risk assessment

Efthalia Kogianni et al.

Summary: This study measured PM2.5 and water-soluble heavy metal concentrations in indoor air of workplaces in Alexandroupolis, Northeastern Greece, finding significant variances in PM2.5 concentrations and water-soluble metal concentrations among the different workplaces. The study also calculated cancer and non-cancer risks associated with inhalation of water-soluble and labile metal fractions bound to indoor PM2.5.

Suspended fine particulate matter (PM2.5), microplastics (MPs), and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs) in air: Their possible relationships and health implications

Razegheh Akhbarizadeh et al.

Summary: The study found that in the urban area of Bushehr port, PM2.5 and MPs may act as carriers for airborne MPs and PAHs, respectively, and the transport of MPs is highly controlled by atmospheric conditions. Petrogenic sources from both proximal and distal origins play an important role in the level of PAHs. Chronic health risk evaluation via inhalation revealed a high potential cancer risk for PM2.5-bound PAHs in winter.

Mechanistic Insights into the Role of Iron, Copper, and Carbonaceous Component on the Oxidative Potential of Ultrafine Particulate Matter

Ion Tacu et al.

Summary: The results indicate that surface Cu plays a major role in the surface reactivity of CNPs, while Fe has a minor role. At the same time, Cu increases the cytotoxicity of CNPs and their ability to induce oxidative stress and DNA damage. In contrast, surface Fe increases the release of pro-inflammatory cytokines by macrophages. Overall, these results confirm the role of Cu and Fe in PM toxicity and suggest that the total metals content in PM might be a better indicator of pathogenicity than water-soluble metals.

Summary: This study conducted in the Sartenejas Valley in Venezuela aimed to evaluate the morphology and elemental chemical composition of particulate matter, identifying different types of particles and confirming sources through principal component analysis (PCA), such as soil dust, sea salts, and reacted aerosols. Additionally, evidence of mineral elements related to soil and crustal origins was found through SEM-EDX and FTIR analysis during the rainy season, with the presence of C-rich or C-containing aerosols possibly linked to biological sources or mineral carbon.

Summary: This study characterized ambient particulate matter collected during a dust event over mid-Brahmaputra Valley of India, revealing varied shapes and sources of the particles. Biogenic particles like plant materials, pollens, and diatoms were identified, along with honeycomb-like structures secreted by leafhoppers of the Cicadellidae family. XRD and FTIR analyses indicated the presence of various minerals and organic carbon, while airmass backward trajectory analysis explained the local contribution of the dust.
