Interactions between ultrafine particles and transition metals in vivo and in vitro. (2002)
Journal Article
Wilson, M. R., Lightbody, J., Donaldson, K., Sales, J., & Stone, V. (2002). Interactions between ultrafine particles and transition metals in vivo and in vitro. Toxicology and Applied Pharmacology, 184(3), 172-179. https://doi.org/10.1006/taap.2002.9501

Both the ultrafine particle and transition metal components of particulate air pollution (PM10) have been hypothesized to be important factors in determining toxicity and potential adverse health effects. In this study we aimed to investigate interac... Read More about Interactions between ultrafine particles and transition metals in vivo and in vitro..

Size-dependent proinflammatory effects of ultrafine polystyrene particles: a role for surface area and oxidative stress in the enhanced activity of ultrafines. (2001)
Journal Article
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(3), 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 associated with exacerbations of respiratory disease and deaths from cardiova...
