Abstract

Particulate matters exposure significantly affects human health, especially for those who are working indoor such as in a workplace, house, office, laboratory and vehicle. The objective of this paper is to review the existing physicochemical characteristics of particulate matters from their various sources, to investigate the differences and similarities and the effect of emission sources. Which largely influences the size, the shape and chemical compound. The result shows that the physicochemical characteristics may exacerbate human health.
