Abstract

Indoor air quality (IAQ) is influenced by aerosols emitted and formed in situ from a broad range of sources and human activity such as cooking and cleaning. Uncertainties remain in understanding the relationship between human behaviour and aerosols of chemical and biological nature, their emission source strengths and spatial variability in the home (Braniš et al., 2014; Nazaroff, 2016).
