“…To date, research on BD has mostly focused on the analysis of CE emission products of fuels derived from various production processes and manufacturing sources (Di et al, 2009;Tiyapongpattana et al, 2008). BD derived from soy-bean vegetable oil is largely composed of fatty acid derivatives (e.g., methyl linoleate; see Supplemental Material, Table S1), and its combustion products may include high levels of unsaturated aldehydes compared to neat D. The unsaturated sites, serving as major targets of lipid peroxidation, may result in formation of both oxidized and unsaturated aldehydes (Fullana et al, 2004;Da Silva and Pereira, 2008;Seaman et al, 2009). Such organic derivatives were found to exert higher toxicity than the solid PM fractions (McCormick, 2007).…”

Over the past decade, soy biodiesel (BD) has become a first alternative energy source that is economically viable and meets requirements of the Clean Air Act. Due to lower mass emissions and reduced hazardous compounds compared to diesel combustion emissions (CE), BD exposure is proposed to produce fewer adverse health effects. However, considering the broad use of BD and its blends in different industries, this assertion needs to be supported and validated by mechanistic and toxicological data. Here, adverse effects were compared in lungs and liver of BALB/cJ mice after inhalation exposure (0, 50, 150, or 500 μg/m 3 ; 4 h/d, 5 d/wk, for 4 wk) to CE from 100% biodiesel (B100) and diesel (D100). Compared to D100, B100 CE produced a significant accumulation of oxidatively modified proteins (carbonyls), an increase in 4-hydroxynonenal (4-HNE), a reduction of protein thiols, a depletion of antioxidant gluthatione (GSH), a dose-related rise in the levels of biomarkers of tissue damage (lactate dehydrogenase, LDH) in lungs, and inflammation (myeloperoxidase, MPO) in both lungs and liver. Significant differences in the levels of inflammatory cytokines interleukin (IL)-6, IL-10, IL-12p70, monocyte chemoattractant protein (MCP)-1, interferon (IFN) γ, and tumor necrosis factor (TNF)-α were detected in lungs and liver upon B100 and D100 CE exposures. Overall, the tissue damage, oxidative stress, inflammation, and cytokine response were more pronounced in mice exposed to Address correspondence to Dr. Anna A.

Epidemiologic and occupational studies demonstrated that ambient particular matter (PM) and diesel exhaust particles exert deleterious effects on human health, including exacerbation of preexisting lung disease, increased incidence of respiratory infections, decrement in lung capacity, and enhanced risk of lung cancer (Sawyer et al., 2010;LaGier et al., 2013). According to the U.S. Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), elevated levels of airborne PM, nitrogen oxides, and sulfur oxides contribute to serious health problems in the United States, producing increased acute respiratory symptoms, chronic bronchitis, and aggravation of asthma, cardiovascular diseases, and premature mortality (Ghio et al., 2012). The International Agency for Research on Cancer (IARC) recently identified diesel combustion emissions (CE) as a Group 1 human carcinogen after chronic exposure (Benbrahim-Tallaa et al., 2012). Diesel exhaust particles are mainly aggregates of spherical carbon particles coated with inorganic and organic substances. The inorganic fraction primarily consists of small solid carbon (or elemental carbon) PM ranging from 0.01 to 0.08 microns in diameter. The organic fraction is composed of organic compounds such as aldehydes, alkanes and alkenes, and high-molecular-weight polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAH) and PAH derivatives, such as nitro-PA...

“…Recent anomalous observations of O 3 in indoor environments may be the result of interference to UV instruments due to indoor contaminants. 42,43 The effect of photochemical reaction products on the O 3 monitors was examined in a smog chamber using mixtures of organic species and NO x designed to simulate urban air. At low organic and NO x loadings and modest O 3 production (O 3max of 50 -60 ppb), the FEM UV and FRM chemiluminescence instruments agreed within 2 ppb.…”

“…Previous studies indicate that human activities can be the main source of PM in indoor air and can generate particles with a wide variety of diameters (BRANIŠ; ŘEZÁČOVÁ; DOMASOVÁ, 2005;HE et al, 2004;SEAMAN;BENNETT;CAHILL, 2009). Fine particles with diameters less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5), in non-smoking indoor environments, primarily originate from human activities that involve combustion processes, such as cooking (TAN et al, 2013) or incineration (BUONANNO; MORAWSKA, 2014).…”

Abstractne of the main characteristics of Antarctic buildings is the fact that they are designed mostly with a focus on energy efficiency. Although human activity is a major source of pollution, indoor air quality is not a matter of significant concern during building planning. This study examines the relationship between indoor activities in an Antarctic Research Station and the size distribution of particulate matter. Real-time particle size distribution data is used in conjunction with time-activity data. The activity number ratio is calculated using the mean number of particles found in each size range during each activity divided by the average number of particles found during a period characterized by the absence of human activities. Cooking, the use of cosmetics, waste incineration and exhaust from light vehicles were responsible for significant deterioration of indoor air related to the presence of fine and ultrafine particles. Cleaning, physical exercise and the movement of people were responsible for the emission of coarse particles. This article emphasizes the importance of post-occupancy evaluation of buildings, generating results relevant to the planning and layout of new buildings, especially regarding better indoor air quality.Keywords: Particulate matter.
