Nitrogen dioxide (NO) is a major atmospheric pollutant that threatens human health and environmental quality amid rapid urbanization and industrialization. The Yellow River Basin is a heavily populated and economically significant area that is essent...
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the interplay between the genetic predisposition to successful ageing and air pollution on lung disease in healthy aged German women under the hypothesis that ageing and lung diseases share mechanisms of oxidative stress and...
The development of highly selective gas sensors operating at room temperature with detection capabilities in the parts-per-billion (ppb) range is one of fundamental and technological interest across diverse fields. Conventional sensor arrays often su...
Mobile monitoring campaigns combined with land use regression (LUR) models effectively capture fine-scale spatial variations in urban air pollution. However, traditional predictor variables often fail to capture the nuances of the built environment a...
Accurately distinguishing gases with nearly identical molecular structures─such as nitric oxide (NO) and nitrogen dioxide (NO)─remains challenging for conventional sensors. We report a palm-sized (5 cm × 5 cm) electronic nose that integrates an ultra...
Gas-Insulated switchgear (GIS) is prone to partial discharges (PDs) in high electric field environments, and the concentration of generated NO is an essential indicator for determining the PD types and severity of faults. Notably, environmental humid...

This study evaluates the robustness of a previously developed calibration model for low-cost ozone sensors, based on the Adaptive Neuro-Fuzzy Inference System (ANFIS). The model was deployed at a different site without retraining. It was tested in Pu...
Historical racial and ethnic disparities in short-term exposure to ambient nitrogen dioxide (NO) have rarely been investigated, primarily due to the lack of spatiotemporally resolved NO data covering the historical period. In this study, we used publ...
This study presents a novel approach for real-time gas identification at room temperature. We use UV-modulated Sb-doped SnO sensors combined with machine learning. Our method exclusively employs the gas response () as the sole metric. This eliminates...
BACKGROUND: Autism spectrum disorder (ASD) is a neurodevelopmental condition with increasing prevalence worldwide. Air pollution may be a major contributor to the rise in ASD cases. This study investigated how the risk of ASD associated with prenatal...
