Living in areas with higher air pollution is associated with an increased risk of in-hospital death from stroke, and the risk varies depending on the size of the air pollution particles, according to ...

Limnology and Oceanography, Vol. 61, No. 3 (2016), pp. 1087-1100 (14 pages) Surface water samples of size-selected seston (0.7–20 μm) were collected from April 2013 to September 2013 at three similar ...

Poor air quality may increase the risk of in-hospital death among patients with ischemic stroke by up to 24%, depending on the size of air pollution particles, new research shows. Investigators found ...

The health implications of particulate matter (PM) depend largely on its size and composition. Fine particles like PM2.5 (aerodynamic diameter < 2.5 μm) pose severe health risks, penetrating deep into ...

Particle size analysis, an activity of particle science, is mostly carried out in academic or industrial particle technology laboratories. It has applications in a range of industrial sectors varying ...

The EPA will propose a new, looser health standard for fine particulate matter, which experts say could impair air quality on ...

We have examined the influence of piston wetting on the size distribution and mass of particulate matter (PM) with approximately 10% of the fuel injected as liquid onto the piston. The liquid fuels ...

Increased particulate matter exposure is associated with worse dry eye metrics, after adjusting for humidity, according to a study published in JAMA Ophthalmology. The study also found that humidity ...
