Characteristic Fe and Cu Compounds in Particulate Matter from Subway Premises in Japan and their Potential Biological Effects by Takuma Okamoto, Ayumi Iwata, Hiroko Yamanaka, Kako Ogane, Tatsuhiro Mori, Akiko Honda, Hirohisa Takano, Tomoaki Okuda

“…Compared with a reference outdoor PM sample, Fe was enhanced by at least 10 times in subway PM and the concentrations of several metal components, including Cu, contained in railway bodies, rail, overhead wires, and tunnel walls, also increased. In these chemical speciations, the compounds derived from wear processes with relatively high-temperature oxidation (Fe3O4, γ-Fe2O3, and monovalent Cu compounds) were detected among the Fe and Cu components in subway PM. …”
