The Difference between Children and Adults Breathing Zone Exposure to Particulate Matter and Bioaerosol

摘要

In general, the PM and bioaersol concentrations in children's breathing zone are different than adults' in many researches, many factors contribute to the result, we want to make a research to compare the children's and adults' PM and bioaersol concentrations difference in their breathing zone and to investigate the factors. In this research, we use IAQ3016 and Burkard to sample the concentrations of PM and bioaersol respectively, we will sample twelve places, including seven places in indoor and five places in outdoor, every place repeats three times according to different seasons, then we set the height of adults and children breathing zone is 80cm and 150cm respectively. In the research, the places we select in indoor are kindergartens, Parent & Child houses, and Pediatrics center of hospital, in outdoor we select the park and Children's playground to sample, because there are more children to sample than regular places.
