“…This indicates that the main source of PM 2.5-10 indoors are human activities such as walking and cleaning that lead to resuspension of previously deposited larger sized particles. For instance, Almeida et al (2011) andMajumdar et al (2011) have carried out studies on school classrooms and found that concentration of PM 2.5-10 increased by 50-100% in the classrooms due to physical activities of students, resulting in resuspension of particles deposited on classroom floors. Likewise, Gomes et al (2007) have carried out an experimental chamber study to simulate the influence of occupant's walking on particle resuspension at various floor types.…”

“…Particulate matter is one of the most important pollutants in indoor air. In spite of the various studies performed worldwide to assess the pupils' exposure to indoor particles, only a few aimed at characterising their chemical composition and most of them were mainly focused on the elemental content (e.g., Kuruvilla et al, 2007;Molnár et al, 2007;Stranger et al, 2008;Almeida et al, 2011;Tran et al, 2012). Comparatively almost nothing is known about the organic matter in particulate matter, which can encompass irritant, carcinogenic and/or mutagenic compounds.…”

“…8 Athletes and the common individual that practice sport present a higher risk of contact with bioaerosols and pollution due to the fact that 1. the minute ventilation could proportionally enhance the quantity of inhaled pollutants; 2. most of the air is inhaled through the mouth, bypassing the normal nasal mechanisms of filtration of larger particles and 3. the increased airflow velocity would carry pollutants deeper into the respiratory tract. 9 However, despite the importance of healthy air in sport facilities, indoor air quality (IAQ) studies have been focused principally on schools, [10][11][12][13][14][15] elderly care centres, [16][17][18][19] homes 20 and offices. 21,22 Comparatively, IAQ evaluations carried out in fitness centres (not school gymnasiums) are very scarce and few have been reported.…”
