The biological effects upon the cardiovascular system consequent to exposure to particulates of less than 500 nm in size

Context: Ultrafine particulate matter contribution to cardiovascular disease is not known and not regulated. PM up to 500 nm are abundant in urban air and alveolar deposition is significant. Objective: Effects beyond the alveolar barrier within the body or in vitro tissues exposed to particles
