A list of reaction products from the photo-oxidation of m-xylene and toluene in chamber experiments for the Quantitative Attribution of Secondary Organic Aerosol in Beijing to its Precursors project which was part of the Air Pollution and Human Health in Developing Megacities programme.
A potential aerosol mass (PAM) chamber was used to investigate the oxidised products from the photo-oxidation of m-xylene and toluene. The chamber experiments were carried out with hydroxyl (OH) radical as oxidant in both high- and low-NOx conditions and the resultant aerosol samples were collected using quartz filters and analysed by the two dimensional Gas Chromatography Time-Of-Flight Mass Spectrometry (GC×GC-TOFMS) at the University of Birmingham.

Mexico City Mexico City's metropolitan area ranks sevenths in the ranking of most populated cities in the world. Founded over the Aztec city of Tenochtitlan in 1521 after the Spanish conquest as the capital of the Viceroyalty of New Spain, the city still stands as one of the most important in Latin America. Nevertheless, the preeminent economic, political, and cultural position of Mexico City has not prevented the metropolis from suffering the problems affecting the rest of the country, namely, inequality and violence. Only in 2023, the city registered a crime incidence of 52,723 reported cases for every 100,000 inhabitants and around 24 percent of the population lived under the poverty line.
