Fine particles, indoor atmospheres

Air quality in homes and workplaces is affected by human activities, construction material, underground minerals, and outside pollution. The most common indoor pollutants are radon, carbon oxides, nitrogen oxides, tobacco smoke, formaldehyde, and a large variety of organic compounds. Indoor atmospheres can also be contaminated with fine particles such as dust, aerosols (from spray cans), fungal spores, and other microorganisms.
