TL;DR: In this article, the authors reviewed existing literature to identify state-of-the-art experimental techniques used for personal exposure assessment; compare exposure levels reported for domestic/school settings in different countries, assess the contribution of outdoor background vs indoor sources to personal exposure; and examine scientific understanding of the risks posed by personal exposure to indoor aerosols.

TL;DR: A quantitative determination of the emissions of fine and ultrafine particles from different indoor sources was performed for the first time to better understanding of the origin and fate of indoor particles.

TL;DR: Reduction of particle exposure by filtration of recirculated indoor air for only 48 hours improved microvascular function in healthy elderly citizens, suggesting that this may be a feasible way of reducing the risk of cardiovascular disease.

TL;DR: The existing Climpaq-based procedure for simplified measurements of emissions of plasticizer from PVC and other plasticized materials was modified to generate quantitative and qualitative emission data on phthalates from different materials but the modified method did not create sufficient data for the calculation of emission rates.
