[Figure 2] Distribution of Fine particulate matter in Organs and the Circulatory System: Comparison of Long-mild Exposure and Short-intense Exposure

Caption

(A) Total fine particulate matter burden in organ samples including brain, lung, heart, liver, stomach, spleen, kidney, and bladder. Black bars indicate short-intense exposure, while gray bars represent long-mild exposure. (B) fine particulate matter concentration (per milligram tissue) in the same organ samples. Red bars indicate short-intense exposure, while red bars represent long-mild exposure. (C, D) fine particulate matter concentration in whole blood (C) and serum (D). Statistical significance is indicated as follows p < 0.05 (*), p < 0.01 (**), and p < 0.001 (***).
