Duffin, R., Gilmour, P. S., Schins, R. P., Clouter, A., Guy, K., Brown, D. M., …Stone, V. (2001). Aluminium Lactate Treatment of DQ12 Quartz Inhibits Its Ability to Cause Inflammation, Chemokine Expression, and Nuclear Factor-κB Activation. Toxicology

In 1997, an IARC Working Group classified quartz (crystalline silica) as a Group 1 lung carcinogen, but only in some industries, i.e., the quartz hazard is a variable entity. The reactivity of the quartz surface may underlie its ability to cause infl...

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 Appl

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...
