Finding F-1197

“For brands A, B, C, D, E, and F, respectively, relative to baseline values, we observed an increase in CO (from 0.002 to 0.007, 0.006, 0.005, 0.006, 0.005, and 0.006 parts per billion (ppb)), NOx (from 0.009 to 0.051, 0.025, 0.015, 0.050, 0.019, and 0.020 ppb), and total VOCs (TVOC; from 48.06 to 288.83, 227.93, 140.82, 223.22, 260.15, and 161.35 μg/m3), while the concentration of CO2 was not elevated.”

Structure

Source: Candles and incense
Factor: Total volatile organic compounds (TVOC)
Setting: hospital treatment room, KR
Study design: chamber measurements during the burning of six commercial indirect moxibustion brands in a treatment room: carbon monoxide, nitrogen oxides, carbon dioxide and volatile organic compounds measured against baseline values, with safety recommendations (class 4)
Effect: mean
Caveat: the carbon monoxide and nitrogen oxide values are printed in ppb at thousandths of a ppb, which cannot be right for either gas; only the total volatile organic compounds are taken as a row
