26. Particulate matter: Liquid droplets or solid particles in the air. AKA Atmospheric Aerosols

27. Particulate matter: Liquid droplets or solid particles in the air Are we breathing PM right now? Handout: PM and their size

28. TERMS PM2.5: Particles with a diameter of < 2.5 μm. PM10: Particles with a diameter of < 10 μm. μm) Human Hair (about 50 μm)

29. PM2.5: Particles with a diameter of < 2.5 μm. PM10: Particles with a diameter of < 10 μm. PM2.5 is contained in PM10! TERMS

30. More Terms… Fine Particles: Particles with diameter less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5). Also called the respirable fraction.

31. More Terms… Fine Particles: Particles with diameter less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5). Also called the respirable fraction. Usually caused by combustion!

32. Fine Particles: Particles with diameter less than 2.5 μm (PM2.5). Also called the respirable fraction. Coarse Particles: The Big Stuff. Diameter greater than 2.5 μm.

33. Usually formed by mechanical means.

56. What happens when you inhale PM? Depends on the size! Coarse Particles Fine Particles

57. These contain hydrogen peroxide, active oxygen species (free radicals), peroxidase, lysozyme and hydrolytic enzymes. This is known as the oxidative burst, and leads to digestion of the phagolysosomal contents, after which they are eliminated by exocytosis http://www-micro.msb.le.ac.uk/MBChB/bloodmap/Phagocytosis.html

58. Macrophage - A type of cell that specializes in getting rid of foreign particles. Macro = “Big” Phage = “Eaters”
