Atmospheric fine particulate matter (PM2.5) can exert a significant impact on human health, especially on causing pulmonary diseases. Inorganic elements and organic compounds are primary toxic components in PM2.5that cause cell death and tissue injury. To study the concentration characteristics as well as cytotoxic effects of PM2.5and chemical components, PM2.5samples were collected in Jinan during 2016. Major inorganic elements and organic components were analyzed and the cell viability of human lung epithelial cells (A549) exposed to PM2.5was examined. The results showed that PM2.5concentrations were higher in Jinan than 90% of cities in China during 2016, and the concentrations of inorganic elements and polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbon (PAHs) in PM2.5were also higher than in other studies. Furthermore, the cytotoxic analysis indicated that cell viability decreased significantly in correspondence with the increase of PM2.5concentrations, which indicated that PM2.5pollution could induce adverse cell injury. The concentrations of most inorganic elements and organic components such as mercury, fluoranthene, anthracene, and dibenzo (a,h) anthracene were significantly negatively correlated with cell viability, indicating that these species were effective chemical toxic components and played a key role in adverse health effects induced by PM2.5.
