Measurements of Indoor and Outdoor Fine Particulate Matter during the Heating Period in Jinan, in North China: Chemical Composition, Health Risk, and Source Apportionment by Xiaomei Gao, Weidong Gao, Xiaoyan Sun, Wei Jiang, Ziyi Wang, Wenshuai Li

“…The total elemental risk values in urban Jinan for the three highly vulnerable groups of population (children (aged 2–6 years and 6–12 years) and older adults (≥70 years)) were nearly 1, indicating that exposure to all of the elements in PM_2.5 had potential non-carcinogenic risks to human health. Further analyses of the indoor/outdoor concentration ratios, infiltration rates (F_INF), and indoor-generated concentration (C_ig) indicated that indoor PM_2.5 and its major chemical components (SO₄²⁻, NO₃⁻, NH₄⁺, OC, and elemental carbon) were primarily determined by outdoor pollution. …”
