Abstract

Nanoparticles are tiny and respirable particles. Because of their small sizes, Nanoparticles can penetrate cells and tissue, accumulate in lungs, and cause health effects. Nanoparticles may possess a larger potential for adverse health effects than larger particles (e.g. PM2.5 and PM10, Particulate Matter with diameters less than 2.5μm and 10μm, respectively). Particle number concentration (PNC) is the most common measure for nanoparticles. Nanoparticles often dominate the total ambient PNC in urban environments. There is a strong need to quantify the PNC in the ambient air through measurements and modelling.
