DOI: 10.1016/j.ecoenv.2022.113356
Abstract: Fine particulate matter (PM2.5) is detrimental to the human respiratory system. However, the toxicity of PM2.5 and its associated potentially harmful species, notably novel pollutants like environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFRs), remains unclear. Therefore, one-year… read more here.
