The OP can be evaluated through several in vitro assays, but protocols employing chemical (acellular) assays have become common as well. Acellular assays can be useful for investigating the PM properties which are responsible for oxidative stress: ROS compounds can either be carried by components of the aerosol itself (particle-bound ROS) or induced by the catalytic activity exerted by aerosol constituents (PM-induced ROS). The recent advances in the characterization of PM oxidative potential are reported and discussed.

Abstract

The OP can be evaluated through several in vitro assays, but protocols employing chemical (acellular) assays have become common as well. Acellular assays can be useful for investigating the PM properties which are responsible for oxidative stress: ROS compounds can either be carried by components of the aerosol itself (particle-bound ROS) or induced by the catalytic activity exerted by aerosol constituents (PM-induced ROS). The recent advances in the characterization of PM oxidative potential are reported and discussed.
