HONO emissions depend strongly on light intensity, relative humidity, NO2 concentration, and coating thickness.
In particular, a strong dependence of HONO emissions on light intensity, relative humidity, NO2 concentrations and the applied coating thickness was found.
Long-term irradiation exposure caused simultaneous decomposition of nitrated proteins.
while simultaneous decomposition of (nitrated) proteins was also found during long-term (20 h) irradiation exposure.
NO2 exposure substantially increases HONO emissions from nitrated protein surfaces.
NO2 exposure was found to increase HONO emissions substantially.
Sustained HONO formation persists over 20 h even when intact nitrated proteins become too low to detect after gas exchange measurements.
The 20 h long-term studies revealed sustained HONO formation, even when concentrations of the intact (nitrated) proteins were too low to be detected after the gas exchange measurements.
Under VIS/UV illuminated conditions with 100 ppb NO2, protein nitration degrees of about 1% were observed.
Nitration degrees of about 1 % were derived applying NO2 concentrations of 100 ppb under VIS∕UV illuminated conditions
A Langmuir-Hinshelwood-based reaction mechanism is proposed for NO2 conversion on nitrated protein surfaces.
A reaction mechanism for the NO2 conversion based on the Langmuir–Hinshelwood kinetics is proposed.
Proteins can be nitrated by air pollutant NO2, enhancing their allergenic potential.
Proteins can be nitrated by air pollutants (NO2), enhancing their allergenic potential.
