This edited volume presents new data and insights from the most
internationally respected PGE experts, representing a variety of
disciplines ranging from chemistry, geochemistry, biology,
environmental science to toxicology and environmental health. It
builds upon three previous co-edited books published by Springer,
Zereini and Alt (Eds.) (1999, 2000 and 2006), incorporating the
most recent advances on the topic. The book covers the following
topical areas related to PGE: sources and applications, analytical
methods, environmental fate, bioavailability and chemical
behaviour, use of bioindicators and human exposures and health risk
potential. Highly interdisciplinary in orientation, this book is a
comprehensive guide to academics, students and professionals
working in a number of different scientific fields, who are
interested in topics related to platinum metal emissions in the
environment.

This book presents the most up-to-date research and information
regarding the origin, chemistry, fate and health impacts of
airborne particulate matter in urban areas, a topic which has
received a great deal of attention in recent years due to
documented relationships between exposure and health effects such
as asthma. With internationally recognised researchers and
academics presenting their work and key concepts and approaches
from a variety of disciplines, including environmental and
analytical chemistry, biology, toxicology, mineralogy and the
geosciences, this book addresses the topic of urban airborne
particulate matter in a comprehensive, multidisciplinary manner.
Topics and research addressed in the book range from common
methodological approaches used to sample and analyse the
composition of airborne particulates to our knowledge regarding
their potential to impact human health and the various policy
approaches taken internationally to regulate particulate matter
levels.
