• Description:
  Exposure to automobile exhaust is a significant public health concern because it is ubiquitous in communities and it contains numerous hazardous air pollutants (HAPs) including 1,3-butadiene, a known human carcinogen. In addition to being ubiquitous, concentration of automobile exhaust is elevated in densely populated urban areas due to high vehicle density and increasing congestion, farther exacerbating risks. This thesis work was designed to advance our understanding of mobile source-related exposure to 1,3-butadiene including the development of methods for measuring internal dose. Together, these advances address critical uncertainties in risk assessment and epidemiological studies linking automobile exhaust and cancer. [Description provided by NIOSH]
