Our everyday environments are full of airborne particles that are harmful to varying degrees when inhaled. Particularly damaging to our cellular DNA are the particles from the underground system in Stockholm, Sweden, according to a new doctoral thesis from Karolinska Institutet."Luckily, most of them do not remain in the underground for any length of time,” says scientist Hanna Karlsson. “However, particle levels are often very high. My results show that there is every reason to speed up the work being done to clean the air in the underground.”>>> Discuss This Story
