BACKGROUND: Gas stoves emit pollutants that are respiratory irritants. U.S. children under age 6 who live in homes
where gas stoves are used for cooking or heating have an increased risk of asthma, wheeze and reduced lung
function. Yet few studies have examined whether using ventilation when operating gas stoves...

A method was developed for the measurement of 19 parent PAHs (PAHs) and 34 hydroxylated
PAHs (OH-PAHs) in urine and personal air samples of particulate matter less than 2.5 um in
diameter (PM[subscript 2.5]) using GC-MS and validated using NIST SRM 3672 (Organic Contaminants in
Smoker’s Urine) and SRM 3673...

In west Eugene (Oregon), community research indicates residents are disproportionately exposed to industrial air pollution and exhibit increased asthma incidence. In Carroll County (Ohio), recent increases in unconventional natural gas drilling sparked air quality concerns. These community concerns led to the development of a prototype mobile device to measure personal...
