Airborne Pollutants: Toxicology and Health Implications explores the sources, distribution, and toxic effects of air pollutants on human health. It covers particulate matter, ozone, nitrogen oxides, and volatile organic compounds, detailing their mechanisms of toxicity and associated respiratory and cardiovascular diseases. The book emphasizes strategies for air quality management and public health protection against airborne toxicants. Suitable for air toxicologists and public health professionals, it advances the understanding of air pollution's health impacts.
Reese Cobb investigates the toxicological effects of airborne pollutants on human health, focusing on respiratory and cardiovascular systems. Her research explores how pollutants like particulate matter, nitrogen dioxide, and sulfur dioxide contribute to diseases such as asthma, bronchitis, and heart disease. Reese has developed models to assess exposure levels and predict health outcomes related to air pollution. She has published extensively on the mechanisms through which airborne toxins induce adverse health effects. As an editor, Reese provides guidelines for toxicologists and public health officials to study and mitigate the health implications of airborne pollutants, promoting cleaner air and healthier populations through informed toxicological strategies.
