Summary

THIS PAPER REVIEWS THE PRESENT STATE OF KNOWLEDGE OF INDOOR POLLUTANT CONCENTRATIONS, THEIR TIME DEPENDENCE, AND THEIR RELATIONSHIP WITH INDOOR SOURCES, ENERGY-CONSERVING MEASURES, AND INDOOR ACTIVITY PATTERNS. POLLUTANTS OF PRIMARY CONCERN ARE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS, RESPIRABLE SUSPENDED PARTICULATES, NITROGEN DIOXIDE, AND ALLERGENS. KNOWLEDGE OF CO, FORMALDEHYDE, RADON, AND INFECTIOUS AGENTS IS ASSESSED. FINALLY, TYPICAL CONCENTRATIONS OF CO, ASBESTOS, NONASBESTOS MINERAL FIBERS, OZONE, AND SULFUR DIOXIDE IN RESIDENCES AND OTHER INDOOR ENVIRONMENTS ARE REVIEWED.
