Brown, D. M., Wilson, M. R., MacNee, W., Stone, V., & Donaldson, K. (2001)
Size-dependent proinflammatory effects of ultrafine polystyrene particles: a role for surface area and oxidative stress in the enhanced activity of ultrafines. Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 175, 191-199. https://doi.org/10.1006/taap.2001.9240
Studies into the effects of ultrafine particles in the lung have shown adverse effects considered to be due in part to the particle size. Air pollution particles (PM10) are as...
