The World Health Organization (WHO) compared a total of 795 cities in 67 countries for levels of small and fine particulate matter (PM10 and PM2.5) during 2008-2013. PM10 and PM2.5 include pollutants such as sulfate, nitrates and black carbon, which penetrate deep into the lungs and into the cardiovascular system, posing the greatest risks to human health.

Pretty nice post. I simply stumbled upon your weblog and wished to mention that I've truly enjoyed browsing your weblog posts. After all I will be subscribing in your feed and I am hoping you write once more very soon!
Vasthi Instruments V.air – 9009, Real – Time Portable Beta Attenuation Mass Monitor, continuously measures the mass concentration of ambient particulate matter collected onto glass filter tape with time resolution of one-minute.
The V.air – 9009 employs an in-line sampling geometry in which the attenuation of beta rays across filter media is measured and particulate matter is sampled simultaneously. This allows ambient sampling to occur for virtually 60 minutes each hour. It also allows for beta ray measurements to be made for virtually the entire hour thereby improving sensitivity and time resolution.
