Abstract:In recent years, air pollution in urban and rural environments has been increasing and is one of the factors of greatest public health concern. PM2.5 particulate matter is one of the main pollutants that deteriorate air quality. This particulate matter can carry bioaerosols as bacteria and fungi. Due to its size or aerodynamic diameter of less than 2.5 μm, it can be inhaled to the pulmonary alveoli, which is strongly associated with a rise in mortality and morbidity in exposed populations. In this research, th… Show more
