Abstract:
Particulate matter is one of the important factors that have adverse effects on human health. It is generally known that the fine particles are more toxic than coarse ones, but some researchers have different opinion. Based on the analysis of the opinions, the factors that may influence the adverse effects of particulate matter on human health, including surface characteristics and adsorbed components, were discussed in the present paper. This paper will be helpful for the assessment of the toxicity of particulate matter.
