Thesis
Ramage, L. environmental particle exposure. (Thesis). Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/2778

This thesis investigates the effects of various inflammatory stimuli, including cytokines and air pollution particles, on the expression and secretion of various proinflammatory proteins in the lung epithelial cell line A549. The pro-inflammatory pro... Read More about Expression of pro-inflammatory proteins in the lung epithelial cell line A549, in response to cytokine, and environmental particle exposure..

Molecular toxicology studies on the quartz hazard. (2003)
Thesis
Duffin, R. Molecular toxicology studies on the quartz hazard. (Thesis). Napier University. http://researchrepository.napier.ac.uk/id/eprint/2777

Silicon makes up almost 28% of the Earth's crust and within that crust, quartz (crystalline silica) is one of the most abundant minerals. Exposure to quartz can occur
in a number of occupations, including the mining and construction industries in wh... Read More about Molecular toxicology studies on the quartz hazard..
