Nosratabadi","doi":"10.3384/9789179292621","DOIUrl":"https://doi.org/10.3384/9789179292621","url":null,"abstract":"Over the last decades, there has been much attention on air quality, especially in urban environments. A significant factor effecting the air quality in the urban environment is airborne particulate matter (PM). Long-term exposure to PM causes increased risk for heart disease, decreased lung function, exacerbation of asthma, and lung cancer. Therefore, many countries have implemented exposure limits to the concentration of ambient PM in the urban environments. The toxicity of PM is dependent on several factors such as chemical composition, shape, adsorbed materials, and particle sizes (usually divided in ultrafine, fine and coarse particles). However, the relationship between different PM properties and developing health hazards are not clear. Therefore, further studies to investigate different properties of PM may contribute to understanding the influence of PM on human health. In the present work, different novel methods to investigate sampled airborne PM and to investigate potential health effects have been used to increase the knowledge regarding street and wear particles. In study I, a sampling plan involving collecting one filter from Tapered Element Oscillating Microbalance (TEOM) monitoring stations used for Environmental monitoring each month for 20 months were developed. Particles on the filters were extracted into a suspension. TEOM particles were then studied with respect to constituents and variables that reflect their toxicity. The constituent and toxicity was found to be spatial and seasonal dependent. As a follow-up, in study II, TEOM filters from three geographical different cities were collected once a month for a year. The variation in particle mass measured with TEOM monitor, cadmium and lead contents, as well as endotoxin levels between locations and time points over the year was studied. The correlation between studied variables and biological effect was investigated. The results show that the concentration of metals and endotoxin in TEOM particles have no relationship to particle mass, while endotoxin levels coincided with pro-inflammatory response. These studies show that results from analyzing different variables on obtained particles from TEOM filters in combination with information about the ambient particle concentration, could be helpful in the evaluation of differences in the risk of breathing air at various locations.
