Source apportionment for indoor air pollution: Current challenges and future directions.
Science of the Total Environment, 2023 Source apportionment (SA) for indoor air pollution is challenging due to the multiplicity and high variability of indoor sources, the complex physical and chemical processes that act as primary sources, sinks and sources of precursors that lead to ...

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022 Air pollution affects health, but much of the focus to this point has been on outdoor air. Higher indoor pollution is anticipated due to increasingly energy-efficient and less leaky buildings together with more indoor activities.

Indoor Air Pollution and Health: Bridging Perspectives from Developing and Developed Countries
Annual Review Environment and Resources, 2022 Much of the global population spends most of their time indoors; however, air pollution measurement, a proxy of exposure, occurs primarily outdoors. This fundamental disconnect between where the people are and where the measurements are made likely leads

International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2020 Indoor air pollution (IAP) is a serious threat to human health, causing millions of deaths each year. A plethora of pollutants can result in IAP; therefore, it is very important to identify their main sources and concentrations and to devise strategies ...

Indoor Air Pollution Increases the Risk of Lung Cancer
International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health, 2022 (1) Background: Cooking and burning incense are important sources of indoor air pollutants. No studies have provided biological evidence of air pollutants in the lungs to support this association.
