Abstract:
Objective To know the pollution status and the cytotoxicity of PM2.5 in Hangzhou,Zhejiang.Methods PM2.5 was collected in the center of Hangzhou city in spring and summer in 2005,the weighting method was used for PM 2.5 collection.WI-38 cell line was used as the target and the cells were treated with PM2.5 at different doses.The cytotoxicity of PM2.5 was tested by cloning efficiency.Results According to the Air Quality Standard for PM2.5 of U.S.EPA(issued in 1997),it was showed that the rates exceeding standard of PM2.5 concentration in spring and summer were 96.7% and 90.0%,respectively,but the rates were 33.3% and 20.0% compared with the standard newly issued in 2006.WI-38 cell survival rate was 100%,99.6%,96.2%,85.0%,73.8%,54.6% and 100%,97.0%,96.9%,88.0%,83.0%,64.7% respectively when treated with PM2.5 in spring and in summer of 0,25,50,100,200,500 ?g/ml.There was a significant difference except 25 ?g/ml and 50 ?g/ml in summer.Conclusion There is an obvious PM2.5 pollution in Hangzhou,which is heavier in spring than in summer,the cytotoxicity of PM2.5 in the polluted air may be higher.
