Effective density of inhaled environmental and engineered nanoparticles and its impact on the lung deposition and dosimetry

Abstract Background Airborne environmental and engineered nanoparticles (NPs) are inhaled and deposited in the respiratory system. The inhaled dose of such NPs and their deposition location in the lung determines their impact on health. When calculating NP deposition using particle inhalation models...
