摘要

The United States Environmental Protection Agency (U.S. EPA) recently conducted the 1998rnBaltimore Particulate Matter (PM) Epidemiology-Exposure Study of the Elderly. Personal,rnindoor, and outdoor sampling of particulate matter was conducted at a retirement center in thernTowson area of northern Baltimore County. Concurrent sampling was conducted at a centralrncommunity site. The main objective of this work was to use computer-controlled scanningrnelectron microscopy with individual-particle X-ray analysis (CCSEM) to measure the chemicalrnand physical characteristics of geological and trace element particles collected at the variousrnsampling locations in and around the retirement facility. The CCSEM results show that thernrelative abundances of some geological and trace element particle classes identified at thernoutdoor and community locations differ from each other and from the indoor location. Particlernimages acquired during the computer-controlled analyses played a key role in the identificationrnof certain particle types. Review of these images was particularly useful in distinguishingrnspherical particles (usually indicative of combustion) from non-spherical particles of similarrnchemical composition. Manual SEM examination of personal samples suggest personal carernproducts and hobby activities as possible sources of particle exposure.
