Lidia Morawska,Alireza Afshari,G. N. Bae,Giorgio Buonanno,Giorgio Buonanno,Christopher Y.H. Chao,Otto Hänninen,Werner Hofmann,Christina Isaxon,E.R. Jayaratne,Pertti Pasanen,Tunga Salthammer,Michael S. Waring,Aneta Wierzbicka +13 more
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.

Zoran Ristovski,Branka Miljevic,Nicholas C. Surawski,Lidia Morawska,Kwun M. Fong,Felicia Goh,Ian A. Yang +6 more
TL;DR: This review shows that the DPM surface area and adsorbed organic compounds play a significant role in manifesting chemical and cellular processes that if sustained can lead to the development of adverse respiratory health effects.
Respiratory health effects of diesel particulate matter
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors explored the physico-chemical properties of diesel particulate matter (DPM), and identified the constituents of this pollution source that are responsible for the development of respiratory disease.
