Public Meeting to Update the Board on a Health Update: Nitrogen Dioxide Exposure Increases Allergic Asthmatic Responses | |
Staff will present the results from four published articles that have reported on how exposure to nitrogen dioxide can adversely affect the health of adult asthmatics. The studies show that exposure to 0.26 ppm nitrogen dioxide may worsen the allergic reactions in the airways of asthmatics. These results support ARB's assessment that the current state ambient air quality standard for nitrogen dioxide is inadequate. | ||
