In the current study, the particles passed quickly through the rats' nostrils to the olfactory bulb, a region of the brain near the nasal cavity. They settled in the striatum, frontal cortex, ...

A bio-based membrane from seafood waste delivers high water flux and pollutant removal, offering a scalable, low-impact ...

Chronic exposure to carbon black ultrafine particles reprograms macrophage metabolism and accelerates lung cancer. Science Advances, 2022; 8 (46) DOI: 10.1126/sciadv.abq0615 ...

It can kill 99.99% of ultra-fine particles and pathogens, which is crucial in ensuring safety and protection within indoor environments. These features make the Atmofizer Air Purification System ...

While it may seem common knowledge that smoking is bad for your lungs, if and how ultrafine particles present in cigarette smoke impact the development and progression of lung cancer remains unclear.

Ultrafine particles are only 0.18 microns in diameter – more than 5,500 would fit across one millimetre.

Long-term high ultrafine particle concentrations in New York state neighborhoods are linked to higher numbers of deaths. That is the key finding of our new research, published in the Journal of ...

There is concern that ultrafine particles (UFPs; particles with a diameter of less than 0.1 µm) can cause more health problems than larger particles. UFPs represent the smallest size fraction of ...

Lung Cancer: These particles are not just found in cigarette smoke; environmental and other natural fires also produce ultrafine particles by incompletely combusting organic debris. Kheradmand and ...

These particles are not just found in cigarette smoke; environmental and other natural fires also incompletely combust organic matter that generates ultrafine particles. Kheradmand and colleagues at ...
