Indoor-outdoor measurements of particulate matter mass concentration and size distribution havebeen performed in a residential background area in Oslo, Norway, and the samples were analysedfor various chemical species. Based on the distributions and concentrations the dose of eachcomponent in the human respiratory tract was calculated for a healthy adult Caucasian male workerusing the Human Respiratory Tract Model of the ICRP. Regional lung doses were compared forvarious chemical species. The highest dose value was observed in the alveolar region of the lung fororganic airborne particles.
