  • Characterizing PM2.5 with Different Source Contributions

    Creator:
    Perez, Allison Mae S.
    Abstract:
    Ubiquitous fine particulate matter (PM2.5) exposures significantly impact global public health, yet little is known about the mechanisms causing these known adverse health effects. Oxidative stress due to PM2.5 associated chemical constituents, such as polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons (PAHs), is a proposed possible mechanism for PM2.5 mediated health effects. Variations in...

  • Quantifying nitrate content in the Japanese food pattern

    Creator:
    Zucker, Michaela F., Gardner, Elizabeth, Zhang, Lynn, Machha, Ajay, and Hord, Norman
    Abstract:
    The presence of nitrates and nitrites in food is associated with an increased risk of gastrointestinal cancer and, in infants, methemoglobinemia. Nitrites are produced endogenously through the oxidation of nitric oxide and through a reduction of nitrate by commensal bacteria in the mouth and gastrointestinal tract. Despite the physiologic roles...

  • Environmental Health Literacy: Evaluating the Impact of Our Research

    Creator:
    Stokes, Lauren E.
    Abstract:
    We are constantly updating our research in the growing field of Environmental Health, yet we do not always translate this information in a way which is understood by the general public. This has resulted in tools which gauge the public’s understanding of health information, such as the eHEALS tool. This...
