Finding F-1764

“However, UV absorbing particulate organic carbon (UV-POC) was significantly elevated in biomass households (14.8 ± 0.9 μg/m3 for biomass vs. 0.19 ± 0.5 μg/m3 for LPG, p < 0.001).”

Structure

Source: Biomass fuel
Factor: Particulate matter (PM₂.₅ and PM₁₀)
Setting: home
Study design: comparison of households using biomass with households using liquefied petroleum gas: indoor particulate matter and its optical fractions measured alongside lung function (class 4)
Effect: mean 14.8
Caveat: the measured fraction is ultraviolet-absorbing particulate organic carbon, recorded here under particulate matter because the register has no narrower slug; the sentence prints the spread as a plus-minus value without naming it
