Abstract

To compare the levels of indoor air pollution found in a sample of smoking and non-smoking public locations in Hungary. Methods: Ambient air of 6 pubs, 5 restaurants, 11 cafes, and 20 other locations in Budapest and Zalakaros, Hungary, between January and August 2008, was studied, and concentration of particulate matter less than 2.5 microns in diameter (PM _2.5 ) was assessed with TSI SidePak AM510 Personal Aerosol Monitor. Results: In 26 places where smoking was observed, the average PM _2.5 level was 102.3 μg/m ³ [range: 3-487 μg/m ³ ]; compared to 5.1 μg/m ³ [range: 0-28 μg/m ³ ] in the 16 places where smoking was observed. Conclusions: Levels of indoor fine particle air pollution measured in smoking public locations in Hungary were 18 times higher than the levels in non-smoking places and exceeded the harmful levels declared by the World Health Organization and US Environmental Protection Agency.
