We focus in this chapter on particles from ambient origin. We first illustrate differences in outdoor and personal exposure using data on real-time particle number concentrations (PNC) from a recent study in Augsburg, Germany. We then present a model of indoor PM concentrations, illustrating the factors that affect indoor air quality. We summarize empirical studies that have assessed indoor-outdoor relationships for particle mass, particle number, and specific components of particulate matter. The focus is on European studies, but we included key studies from outside Europe as well. We conclude by comparing the strength of indoor-outdoor relationships of various particle fractions and components. [Pg.323]

Empirical studies have used different methods to describe quantitative indoor-outdoor relationships [11]. Many studies have used the indoor I outdoor ratio (I/O ratio). The I/O ratio of occupied homes is difficult to interpret as it is affected by indoor sources and by infiltration of outdoor particles indoors. I/O ratios from different studies have shown a very wide range from well below 1 to well above 1 [11]. Some studies have attempted to exclude homes with major indoor sources such as smoking and use of gas appliances for cooking to obtain more interpretable values [13, 14, 19]. Because of the variety of indoor sources, this has generally not been successful. In a Swedish study that purposefully selected homes without smokers and gas appliances, indoor PM2.s concentrations were still for 60-90% caused by indoor sources [14]. The authors speculate that...
