Organic peroxides (POs) are organic molecules with one or more peroxide (−O–O−) functional groups. POs commonly regarded as chemically labile termination products from gas-phase radical chemistry and therefore serve temporary reservoirs for oxidative radicals (HOx ROx) in the atmosphere. Owing to their ubiquity, active gas-particle partitioning behavior, reactivity, key reactive intermediates atmospheric multiphase processes determining life cycle (formation, growth, aging), climate, health impacts of aerosol. However, there remain substantial gaps origin, molecular diversity, fate due complex nature dynamic behavior. Here, we summarize current understanding on POs, a focus identification quantification, state-of-the-art analytical developments, molecular-level formation mechanisms, chemical transformation pathways, well environmental impacts. We find that interactions SO2 transition metal ions generally fast PO pathways liquid water, lifetimes estimated be minutes hours, while hydrolysis is particularly important α-substituted hydroperoxides. Meanwhile, photolysis thermolysis likely minor sinks POs. These distinctly different fates, such reaction OH radicals, which highlights need understand By summarizing advances remaining challenges investigation propose future research priorities regarding fate,

Acidity is an important property of particulate matter (PM) in the atmosphere, but its association with PM toxicity remains unclear. Here, this study quantitively reports effect acidity level on via pH-control experiments and cellular analysis. Oxidative stress cytotoxicity potencies acidified samples at pH 1–2 were up to 2.8–5.2 2.1–13.2 times higher than those 8–11, respectively. The toxic from real-world smoke plumes 2.3 9.1–18.2 greater 5.6, demonstrating a trend similar that samples. Furthermore, impact was manifested by promoting metal dissolution. dramatic increase 2–3 orders magnitude water-soluble content dominated variation toxicity. significant correlation between sulfate, value, Fe, IC20, EC1.5 (p < 0.05) suggested acidic sulfate could enhance dissolving insoluble metals. findings uncover superficial adverse health outcomes epidemiological research highlight control wet plume emissions mitigate effects acidity.

The mechanism and kinetics of reactive oxygen species (ROS) formation when atmospheric secondary organic aerosol (SOA) is exposed to solar radiation are poorly understood. In this study, we combined an in situ UV–vis irradiation system with electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy characterize the photolytic ROS aqueous extracts SOA formed by oxidation isoprene, α-pinene, α-terpineol, toluene. We observed substantial free radicals, including •OH, superoxide (HO2•), radicals (R•/RO•) upon irradiation. Compared dark conditions, radical yield was enhanced a factor ∼30 for •OH 2–10 emergence radicals. Total peroxide measurements showed decreases contents after photoirradiation, indicating that peroxides can be important source A liquid chromatography interfaced high-resolution mass spectrometry used detect number form adducts spin trap, BMPO. types detected photolysis model compounds indicated carbonyls Norrish type I mechanisms plays role formation. serves as driving force cloud fog processing SOA.

Secondary Organic Aerosol Generated from Biomass Burning Emitted Phenolic Compounds: Oxidative Potential, Reactive Oxygen Species, and Cytotoxicity

Environmental Science & Technology, Год журнала: 2024, Номер 58(19), С. 8194 - 8206

Phenolic compounds are largely emitted from biomass burning (BB) and have a significant potential to form SOA (Phc-SOA). However, the toxicological properties of Phc-SOA remain unclear. In this study, phenol guaiacol were chosen as two representative phenolic gases in BB plumes, water-soluble components their generated under different photochemical ages NOx levels investigated. contribute greatly oxidative (OP) biomass-burning SOA. OH-adducts (e.g., 2-methoxyhydroquinone) identified (GSOA) with high OP. The addition nitro groups 2,5-dimethyl-1,4-benzoquinone, surrogate quinone compound Phc-SOA, increased its toxicity both (PSOA) GSOA vitro human alveolar epithelial cells decreased aging terms cell death cellular reactive oxygen species (ROS), possibly due more ring-opening products relatively low toxicity. influence was consistent between ROS for but not PSOA, indicating that production does necessarily represent all processes contributing caused by PSOA. Combining acellular assays can provide comprehensive understanding aerosol properties.

Oxidative stress mediated by reactive oxygen species (ROS) is a key process for adverse aerosol health effects. Secondary organic aerosols (SOA) account major fraction of fine particulate matter, and their inhalation deposition into the respiratory tract causes formation ROS chemical cellular processes, but relative contributions are hardly quantified link to oxidative remains uncertain. Here, we superoxide generation 9,10-phenanthrenequinone (PQN) isoprene SOA using chemiluminescence assay combined with electron paramagnetic resonance spectroscopy as well kinetic modeling. We also applied imaging techniques study mechanism release damage on cell membranes. show that PQN activate NADPH oxidase in macrophages massive amounts superoxide, overwhelming aqueous reactions epithelial lining fluid. The activation dose 2 orders magnitude lower than SOA, suggesting quinones more toxic. While higher exposures trigger antioxidant response elements, released induce membrane through lipid peroxidation. Such mechanistic quantitative understandings provide basis further elucidation effects matter.

Reactive oxygen species (ROS) and environmentally persistent free radicals (EPFR) play an important role in chemical transformation of atmospheric aerosols adverse aerosol health effects. This study investigated the effects nitrogen oxides (NOx) during photooxidation α-pinene naphthalene on EPFR content ROS formation from secondary organic (SOA). Electron paramagnetic resonance (EPR) spectroscopy was applied to quantify formation. While no were detected SOA, we found that SOA contained about 0.7 pmol μg-1 EPFR, NOx has little influence concentrations oxidative potential. α-Pinene generated under low conditions form OH superoxide aqueous phase, which lowered substantially by 50-80% for high conditions. High-resolution mass spectrometry analysis showed substantial nitroaromatics nitrates a environment. The modeling results using GECKO-A model simulates explicit gas-phase chemistry radical 2D-VBS treats autoxidation predicted reduced hydroperoxides enhanced due reactions peroxy with instead their HO2.
