Abstract:
Most solid materials in nature consist of minerals, they are ubiquitous on the surface of the earth. After inhaled in body, they will trigger pulmonary disease. The pathogenesis of mineral dusts is always in the way of disputing and consummating. Researcher should pay great attention to the adverse effect of mineral dust in nonprofessional environment. The biological action of mineral surface is an important aspect to discover mineral dust interface function and molecular toxicological mechanism. At present, the superfine mineral dust and nanometer suspending dust are the important components of dust environment safety assessment.
