In particular, the preparations of aerosol particles obtained by combustion of wood and plastic were created. The particle size distribution was analyzed and the presence of nanoscale particles in smoke aerosol preparations from wood and plastic combustion was shown. The mechanism of toxic effects of particles suspended in water of the preparation of smoke aerosol from the combustion of plastic, namely, a significant decrease in the transporter-mediated accumulation of excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate and inhibitory neurotransmitter GABA in rat brain nerve terminals. It is shown that particles of the preparation of smoke aerosol from the combustion of plastic can lead to an imbalance of excitation-inhibition processes in the central nervous system. It is shown that H2O2-stimulated release of L-[14C]glutamate and [3H]GABA from the rat brain nerve terminals does not change in the presence of smoke components from plastic combustion. The effect of size, shape and structure of micro- and nanosized particles on their toxicity was analyzed. The identify mechanisms for the development of neurotoxicity by the action of mercury, complicated by the presence of biomass combustion particles. The neurotoxic effect of mercury is due to an increase in the extracellular level of the excitatory neurotransmitter, glutamate. The determining the mechanisms of neurotoxicity by the complex action of mercury, complicated by the presence of particles from biomass combustion, showed that the effect of mercury on extracellular glutamate level in nerve terminals changes in the presence of nanoparticles.
