In vitro Evaluation of Oxidative Stress Caused by Fine Particles (PM2.5) Exhausted from Heavy-Duty Vehicles Using Diesel/Biodiesel Blends under Real World Conditions

Abstract: In this work, the redox activity of fine diesel/biodiesel particulate matter (PM 2.5 ) was studied in order to approach its toxicity from reactive oxygen species, due to adverse effects it may cause to human health. The oxidative potential was measured by the dithiothreitol (DTT) assay in order to study the relative contribution of water-soluble transition metals, polycyclic aromatic compounds (PAH), nitro-PAH, and quinones. It was analyzed a total of 24 samples collected from primarily diesel/biodiesel-exhaus… Show more

“…People can be exposed to nitro-PAHs from different sources. , For example, it has been reported that 1-nitronaphthalene and 2-nitronaphthalene are largely produced through smoking, while 1-nitropyrene, 2-nitrofluorene, and 9-nitrophenanthrene are mainly found in diesel exhaust. In this study, 1-AP has a particularly strong association with 20-HETE, 11-dhTXB 2 , 8-OHdG, and aMT6s. In addition, 1-AN and 2-AN are significantly associated with 20-HETE, 8-OHdG, and aMT6s.…”

“…After observation using light microscopy, it appeared PM increased the fibroblast proliferation rate, however, mitochondrial changes cannot be discounted especially given the known oxidative properties of the PM mixture (Figure 3). 25 Fibroblasts also seemed to have decreased cytoplasmic volume, assuming a thinner, more spindle‐like morphology after PM exposure.…”

“…With regard to Hg directly emitted from the bus exhaustion, we considered samples collected in the bus station underground floor. In previous studies from the same research group, ,,,, , there are two main particle sources, the bus exhaustion and particle dust suspension from the floor derived from the buses either in the idle point (during waiting for passengers) or transiting within the station. In addition, it is virtually unlikely that there is any secondary process (i.e., particle aging or photochemical reactions) being undergoing modifying suspended particles in this bus station because our collection point was in the underground floor, where either natural or electric light is mostly absent.…”
