Ambient PM contains various transition metals and organic compounds. PM10 aerodynamic diameter less than 10 pm is known to induce diverse diseases such as chronic cough bronchitis chest illness etc. However recent evaluation of aerodynamic diameter less than pm against health outcomes has suggested that the fine particles may be more closely associated with adverse respiratory health effects than particles of larger size. This study was performed to evaluate oxidative stress in rat lung epithelial cell in order to provide basic data for the risk assessment of . showed higher cytotoxicity than PM10. Also PM induced more malondialdehyde MDA formation than PM10. In Hoechst 33258 dye staining and DNA fragmentation assay apopotic changes were clearly detected in treated cells in compared to PM10. Expression of catalase mRNA was increased by rather than PM10. induced higher Mth1 mRNA than PM10. In pBR322 DNA treated with production of single strand breakage of DNA was higher than that of PM10. In Western blot analysis induced more Nrf-2 protein associated with .
