| Research Abstract |
Biological effects of the yellow dust were evaluated by chemical analysis, superoxide generation activity and histological changes of rat lung tissue. Results indicated the importance of adsorbed pollutants on the yellow dust on these biological indices. Detected amount of carcinogens in the yellow dust samples was far low to induce lung cancer alone. It should be clarify that the synergetic or additive effect of the yellow dust on the lung carcinogenesis and other diseases related to PM2.5 exposure.
