Summary

In recent years numerous research efforts were focused in the examination of the relationship between the exposure of humans to the particulate matter (PM) and consecutive adverse health effects (Schwartz, 1994). The quality of air in the indoor environment has become of great importance as people nowadays spend about 80% of their time indoors. Moreover a large portion of their time is spent at home and thus they are exposed to particulate matter emitted during different indoor activities. The PM concentration during indoor activities can reach elevated values (up to tenfold compared to the situation without the sources) for short or even for longer periods of time (He et al., 2004). The determination of physical characteristics
