Diesel Exhaust Particles (DEP), a kind of fine particles with aerodynamic diameters less than 2.5μm(PM2.5), is of great concern to human health because they remain in atmosphere for long periods, invade an indoor air environment, and can be breathed most deeply into lung and reached the alveoli because of their small size(0.1~0.4μm in diameter). Epidemiological and experimental studies suggested that DEP may play an active role in the increased respiratory mortality and morbidity.
