Environmentally persistent free radicals amplify ultrafine particle mediated cellular oxidative stress and cytotoxicity

BACKGROUND: Combustion generated particulate matter is deposited in the respiratory tract and pose a hazard to the lungs through their potential to cause oxidative stress and inflammation. We have previously shown that combustion of fuels and chlorinated hydrocarbons produce semiquinone-type radical...
