Personal profile
Research
My research has focus on occupational exposures to aerosols. I have characterized airborne exposures in workplaces such as different types of engineered nanoparticles (carbon nanotubes, carbon nanoplates, graphene, titanium nanofibers, semiconductor nanowires), welding fumes, diesel exhaust, fire smoke, asphalt fumes, transport emissions, combustion aerosols and PAH. I am also involved in research about monitoring of occupational exposure to antineoplastic drugs and antibiotics.
