$259,573Public Health Relevance Statement:
Project Narrative Exposure to complex environmental agents, such as ultrafine particulate matter derived from combustion sources and engineered nanomaterials, is not well understood. The toxic potential of inhaled particles is dependent on their size and chemical composition, and current solutions for personal exposure monitoring are expensive. This proposed effort addresses the need for a better individual exposure assessment, specifically, quantification of the health impact of ultrafine particles, and will facilitate optimal selection and implementation of air pollution control strategies.
