DUVALL, R. M., G. A. NORRIS, J. M. BURKE, J. K. MCGEE, M. I. GILMOUR, AND R. B. DEVLIN. SOURCE APPORTIONMENT OF FINE PARTICULATE MATTER IN THE U.S. AND ASSOCIATIONS WITH LUNG INFLAMMATORY MARKERS IL -8, COX -2 AND HO -1. Presented at International Society of Exposure Analysis, Paris, FRANCE, September 02 - 06, 2006.

Impact/Purpose:

The overall goal of this task is to apply exposure and source apportionment tools (measurements and models) to support ongoing and planned health studies.
