1/1/2012 - Peer reviewed journal articlesMiners face a variety of respiratory hazards while on the job, including exposure to silica dust which can lead to silicosis, a potentially fatal lung disease.
-
6/1/2020 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA study suggesting that laser-induced breakdown spectroscopy measurements coupled with partial least squares modeling results could be a method for rapidly analyzing diesel particulate matter concentrations.
-
8/1/2019 - Peer reviewed journal articlesA study investigating the use of mid-infrared spectrometry as a field-portable, real-time method for measuring elemental and organic carbons in diesel particulate matter aerosols.

3/1/2019 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAn article on mapping the ultimate analyses parts of the Springfield coal from an Indiana section of the Illinois basin, using sequential Gaussian simulation of isometric log-ratio transformed compositions.
-
5/1/2016 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis article on a new portable instrument describes laboratory testing that demonstrated the instrument’s plausibility for identifying hazardous levels of silicon-containing compounds.
-
6/1/2010 - Peer reviewed journal articlesResearchers at NIOSH are developing methods for characterizing ultrafine aerosols in workplaces. One method includes the detailed analysis of collected particles using electron microscopy (EM).
-
3/1/2010 - Peer reviewed journal articlesAirborne soot particles have a significant effect on atmospheric chemistry and their detailed properties are thus of interest to researchers. There are many different types of soot with a variety of shapes and chemical composition. This paper presents n...

2/1/2009 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThe results of this study by NIOSH have served to provide performance data in support of the procedures described in the international standard methods, for which such results were previously unavailable in the peer-reviewed literature.
-
1/1/2009 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis study focuses on how hygroscopic properties, deliquesence relative humidity (DRH) and hygroscopic growth factor (GF) of nanoparticles vary with their size and structural properties.
-
4/1/2007 - Peer reviewed journal articlesThis report describes an investigation in which NIOSH used iron-doped diesel fuel to generate metal-bearing diesel particles and a subsequent analysis of the particles using transmission electron microscopy (TEM) and energy-dispersive spectroscopy (EDS).
