To improve air quality, China has been implementing strict clean policies since 2013. These not only substantially improved quality but may also modify the spatial distribution of pollution, urban emission sources were under stricter control and some moved to rural regions with lower improvement targets lacking monitoring. Here, we predicted satellite-based monthly PM2.5 concentrations during 2000-2018 at a 1-km resolution complete spatial-temporal coverage analyze changes in pattern...
A lead-specific binding protein, PbrR, and promoter pbr from the lead resistance operon, pbr, of Cupriavidus metallidurans CH34 was incorporated into E. coli in conjunction with an engineered downstream RFP (red fluorescence protein), which allowed for highly sensitive selective whole-cell detection ions. The subsequent display PbrR on cell surface permitted adsorption ions solution containing various heavy metal surface-engineered bacteria effectively protected Arabidopsis thaliana seed...
Abstract Background Ambient air pollution has been associated with activation of systemic inflammation and hypercoagulability increased plasma homocysteine, but the chemical constituents behind association are not well understood. We examined relations various fine particles (PM 2.5 ) biomarkers inflammation, coagulation homocysteine in context traffic-related pollution. Methods A panel 40 healthy college students underwent biweekly blood collection for 12 times before after their relocation...
The emissions from various pollution sources were not proportional to their contributions ambient PM2.5 concentrations and associated health burdens. That means even with the same total abatement targets, different allocation strategies across emission can have distinct benefits. Insufficient knowledge of sources' burdens in China, country suffering substantial PM2.5-related deaths, hindered government seeking optimized strategies. In this context, we separated 155 (31 provinces × 5 sectors)...
ABSTRACT An intensive sampling of aerosol particles from ground level and 100 m was conducted during a strong pollution episode the winter in Xi'an, China. Concentrations water-soluble inorganic ions, carbonaceous compounds, trace elements were determined to compare composition particulate matter (PM) at two heights. PM mass concentrations high both stations: PM10 (PM with aerodynamic diameter ≤10 μm) exceeded China National Air Quality Standard Class II value on three occasions, PM2.5 ≤2.5...
Although outdoor air pollution has been identified as carcinogenic to humans, the magnitude of relative risk (RR) and 95% confidence interval (CI) for lung cancer in relation remain uncertain. On a global scale, we quantified associated with long-term exposure using meta-analytic approach. Relevant cohort studies from two databases (PubMed Web Science) through 31 May 2014 were searched, total 21 analysis. The mortality or morbidity increased 7.23 (95% CI: 1.48–13.31)%/10 μg/m3 increase fine...
Selective inhibition of photosynthesis is a fundamental strategy to solve the global challenge caused by harmful cyanobacterial blooms. However, there lack specificity currently used cyanocides, because most them act on cyanobacteria generating nontargeted oxidative stress. Here, for first time, we find that simplest β-diketone, acetylacetone, promising specific cyanocide, which acts Microcystis aeruginosa through targeted binding bound iron species in photosynthetic electron transport...
Due to urbanization and industrialization, PM2.5 (particulate matter with a diameter less than 2.5 μm) pollution has become serious environmental problem. The low spatial resolution insufficient coverage of observation stations affect research on causes human health risks. With the launch FY-4A, new generation Chinese geostationary weather satellites, it is possible obtain high temporal covering all China. In this study, FY-4A top-of-the-atmosphere reflectance data, meteorological factors,...
Objectives: Both low temperature and high air pollution have been associated with an increased risk of cardiovascular events, which could be predicted by arterial blood pressure (BP) within short periods. However, whether exposures to simultaneously may interactive effects on BP has unknown. We investigated this potential interaction during 460 repeated visits in 39 healthy university students the context traffic-related pollution. Methods: Study participants Healthy Volunteer Natural...
