Study finds PM from biodiesel blends may be 50-80% less toxic per unit PM mass than from petroleum diesel

However, the relative toxicity of biodiesel emissions compared to petroleum diesel remains unclear. nmol/min/mg PM for B0 and B100, respectively, and from 22.6 ± 4.5 There is growing consensus that PM toxicity is linked to the formation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) on PM and the subsequent oxidative stress induced in cells.
