Chemical and biological components of atmospheric particulate matter and their impacts on human health and crops: a review
This article provides a brief review of morphological features (MFs), chemical and biological aspects of particulate matters (PMs) and their effects on humans and crops. Based on previous studies, it has been found that particles such as carbonaceous, metal-rich, crust-element, fly-ash and biological particles usually exhibit multifarious morphology, due to diverse sources. Thirty-seven elements have been identified; some of them, viz. arsenic, chromium, cadmium, lead, nickel, vanadium and titanium, are extremely hazardous for humans and plants compared to other elements. These toxic elements (TEs)/toxic metals (TMs) can p...
