This 2022 conference presentation from TSI Incorporated examines the limitations of current methods for monitoring ultrafine particles (UFP) in ambient air. It highlights the critical role that air quality monitoring plays in both identifying known pollution hazards and building research datasets to uncover new ones, with UFP listed alongside pollutants such as CO, ozone, lead, and particulate matter as a causative constituent of air pollution health effects.Open full document
