Sweat the small stuff; dust particles can have big negative impact
2017-07-18 11:00:00| National Hog Farmer
A swine-finishing building, although not considered to be terribly dusty, is actually the worst overall in dust level, especially at the most dangerous particulate matter level.

Pollution particles 'get into brain'
2016-09-06 06:06:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
BBC: Tiny particles of pollution have been discovered inside samples of brain tissue, according to new research. Suspected of toxicity, the particles of iron oxide could conceivably contribute to diseases like Alzheimer's - though evidence for this is lacking. The finding - described as "dreadfully shocking" by the researchers - raises a host of new questions about the health risks of air pollution. Many studies have focused on the impact of dirty air on the lungs and heart. Now this new research...

Toxic air pollution particles found in human brains
2016-09-05 21:01:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Guardian: Toxic nanoparticles from air pollution have been discovered in human brains in abundant quantities, a newly published study reveals. The detection of the particles, in brain tissue from 37 people, raises concerns because recent research has suggested links between these magnetite particles and Alzheimers disease, while air pollution has been shown to significantly increase the risk of the disease. However the new work remains a long way from proving the air pollution particles cause or exacerbate...
