The aim of this work was to determine the bioaccessibility of 21 elements bound to PM1 and PM2.5 urban aerosol and OP of both studied aerosol size fractions in three simulated lung fluids: deionised water, simulated alveoli fluid (SAF) and Gamble’s solution. It was found that the bioaccessibility of elements depends on their chemical compound, aerosol size fraction and the chemical composition of the SLF.
The OP of urban PM was studied as a relevant metric for health effects using the dithiothreitol assay. The difference of OP value in deionised water to SAF and Gamble’s solution indicated the crucial effect of individual SLFs’ chemical composition on the OP. The complexation of the elements with different ligands present in the solution can influence OP and, therefore, the potential health effects of inhaled aerosol.
