Particle emission factors during cooking activities
TLDR
In this paper, the relationship between exposure to particles emitted by cooking activities and their subsequent effects on health cannot be evaluated without understanding the properties of the emitted aerosol or the main parameters that influence particle emissions during cooking.About:

Ultrafine particle emissions from desktop 3D printers
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors report on measurements of size-resolved and total ultrafine particle (UFP) concentrations resulting from the operation of two types of commercially available desktop 3D printers inside a commercial office space.

Emissions and indoor concentrations of particulate matter and its specific chemical components from cooking: A review
TL;DR: In this paper, a review of existing knowledge of the mass concentrations, size distribution and chemical composition of cooking aerosol generated from typical styles of cooking as reported in the literature is presented, showing that cooking can generate both appreciable masses of aerosol at least within the area where the cooking takes place, that particle sizes are largely within the respirable size range and that major groups of chemical compounds which have been used to characterise cooking aerosols include alkanes, fatty acids, dicarboxylic acids, lactones, polycyclic aromatic hydrocarbons, al

Research on aerosol sources and chemical composition: Past, current and emerging issues
TL;DR: In spite of considerable progress in recent years, a quantitative and predictive understanding of atmospheric aerosol sources, chemical composition, transformation processes and environmental effects is still rather limited, and therefore represents a major research challenge in atmospheric science as discussed by the authors.

Nanoparticle emissions from 11 non-vehicle exhaust sources - A review
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors presented critically synthesised information in a consolidated manner on 11 non-vehicle exhaust sources (i.e., road-tyre interaction, construction and demolition, aircraft, ships, municipal waste incineration, power plants, domestic biomass burning, forest fires, cigarette smoking, cooking, and secondary formation).

Hazard assessment of chemical air contaminants measured in residences
TL;DR: In this article, the authors compiled summary results from 77 published studies reporting measurements of chemical pollutants in residences in the United States and in countries with similar lifestyles, and calculated representative mid-range and upper bound concentrations relevant to chronic exposures for 267 pollutants and representative peak concentrations for 5 activity-associated pollutants.

Smoke, Dust, and Haze: Fundamentals of Aerosol Dynamics
TL;DR: In this paper, the authors investigated the effect of the size distribution function on the performance of a single element particle capture by diffusion and interception at high Reynolds numbers and showed that the effects of the distribution function are independent of the particle size.

Deposition, resuspension, and penetration of particles within a residence
TL;DR: Aerosol concentrations and particle size distributions were measured indoors and outdoors at a two-storey residence in California during the summer months as discussed by the authors, where a single central sampling point in the downstairs living area was used for all indoor samples.

Contribution from indoor sources to particle number and mass concentrations in residential houses
TL;DR: In this article, the effect of indoor sources on indoor particle concentrations as well as quantification of emission rates from the sources were quantified using house occupants' diary entries, and catalogued into 21 different types of indoor activities.

Personal exposure to airborne particles and metals: Results from the Particle TEAM Study in Riverside, California
TL;DR: The PTEAM Study as mentioned in this paper was the first large-scale probability-based study of personal exposure to particles, which was carried out by the Research Triangle Institute (RTI) and the Harvard University School of Public Health (HSPH).

Relative contribution of outdoor and indoor particle sources to indoor concentrations
TL;DR: In this paper, the effect of indoor particle sources on indoor particle size distributions and concentrations was previously investigated using real-time indoor and outdoor particle size distribution data collected in four homes in Boston in 1996.
