Inhalation exposure system for diesel exhaust particulates
… Chamber was modified to minimize the amount of diesel exhaust particulate (DEP) needed for animal inhalation exposures. Second, instrumentation was evaluated for aerosolizing DEP, monitoring the mass concentration and size distribution, and determining the uniformity of the aerosol.;The …

Individual and synergistic effects of lubricant additive (Ca, Mg, Zn) combinations on ash characteristics and DPF performance
Diesel particulate filters (DPF) are devices that trap hazardous particulate matter from diesel engine exhaust in order to meet increasingly strict particle emissions regulations. Diesel exhaust particulates mainly include soot and ash. Soot, carbon particles derived from incomplete fuel …

Effects of air pollution on vascular thrombosis
… in this thesis addresses the hypothesis that diesel exhaust particulates (DEP) increase thrombogenicity by impairing the release of tissue plasminogen activator (t-PA) from vascular endothelial cells, thus inhibiting the endogenous fibrinolytic mechanisms that promote thrombus breakdown. The …
