Table 2.
Exposure | Mean | SD | Minimum | Maximum |
---|---|---|---|---|
Filtered air | 10.1 | 7.1 | 2.6 | 27.4 |
Coarse CAP | 76.2* | 51.5 | 10.3 | 246.5 |
CAP, concentrated ambient particles; SD, standard deviation
PM10-2.5 concentrations are in µg·m−3 and determined by Teflon filter-based gravimetric mass measurements for the 2-hour period of exposures. Mass levels below the detection limit (6.8 µg·m3) were recorded at this value for analyses (n=15, filtered air exposures only)
P values <0.01 for differences of mean or median levels between exposure types
