Finding F-0076

“During some cooking activities, calculated PM2.5 mass concentrations (assuming a density of 1 g cm−3) exceeded 250 μg m−3, and exposure during the postcooking decay phase exceeded that of the cooking period itself.”

Structure

Source: Cooking
Factor: Particulate matter (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
Setting: test house, US
Study design: measurement campaign (HOMEChem) in a manufactured test house at the University of Texas at Austin during prescribed everyday activities: cooking, cleaning, opening doors and windows (class 4)
Effect: other 250
Caveat: the value is a threshold the calculated concentration exceeded, not a mean; mass calculated from size distributions assuming a particle density of 1 g cm−3
