No results posted yet for this study

Summary

People spend up to 90% of their life indoor, and the way we live and behave in our homes has substantial effects on our health and well-being. Particle contamination is suggested to have substantial negative effects on health, with candles and cooking emitting the largest amount of particles, thus being the largest contributors to indoor air pollution.

The overall aim of the present project is to contribute to increased understanding of the association between indoor particulate air pollution and health and well-being.
