Abstract

Americans spend approximately 90% of their time indoors, with more than 66% of that time spent in residential buildings. Factors pertaining to household behavior or environmental factors may influence types of semi-volatile organic compounds (SVOC) found indoors. Paired indoor and outdoor passive samplers were deployed at twenty-four locations across the United States. Samples were analyzed for >1500 SVOCs to identify common patterns in exposure profiles and investigate influences of household behavior and environmental factors. Unique differences between indoor and outdoor profiles were identified, with indoor air typically having greater frequency and concentration of SVOCs relative to outdoor air. A significant relationship between fragrance chemicals and scented consumer products was identified. When considering a multifactorial approach, chemical exposures were most influenced by environmental and demographic factors. Our data highlights specific groups of chemicals identified at higher concentrations indoors and their potential influences, as well as the complexity of identifying specific sources of chemical exposures.

室内和室外SVOC暴露影响的调查。

美国人大约90%的时间是在室内度过的，其中超过66%的时间是在住宅建筑中度过的。与家庭行为或环境因素有关的因素可能会影响室内发现的半挥发性有机化合物（SVOC）的类型。在美国的24个地点部署了成对的室内和室外被动采样器。对样本进行了bbb1500 SVOCs分析，以确定暴露概况中的常见模式，并调查家庭行为和环境因素的影响。室内和室外特征之间存在独特差异，室内空气中SVOCs的频率和浓度通常高于室外空气。香味化学物质与香味消费品之间存在着重要的关系。在考虑多因素方法时，化学品暴露受环境和人口因素的影响最大。我们的数据突出了室内浓度较高的特定化学物质组及其潜在影响，以及确定特定化学物质暴露源的复杂性。

期刊介绍： International Journal of Environmental Research and Public Health (IJERPH) (ISSN 1660-4601) is a peer-reviewed scientific journal that publishes original articles, critical reviews, research notes, and short communications in the interdisciplinary area of environmental health sciences and public health. It links several scientific disciplines including biology, biochemistry, biotechnology, cellular and molecular biology, chemistry, computer science, ecology, engineering, epidemiology, genetics, immunology, microbiology, oncology, pathology, pharmacology, and toxicology, in an integrated fashion, to address critical issues related to environmental quality and public health. Therefore, IJERPH focuses on the publication of scientific and technical information on the impacts of natural phenomena and anthropogenic factors on the quality of our environment, the interrelationships between environmental health and the quality of life, as well as the socio-cultural, political, economic, and legal considerations related to environmental stewardship and public health. The 2018 IJERPH Outstanding Reviewer Award has been launched! This award acknowledge those who have generously dedicated their time to review manuscripts submitted to IJERPH.
